Answer:

Future requirement of water = 115,517 mega-liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Current requirement of water (C) = 48,000 mega-liters

Increasing rate per year (g) = 5% = 0.05

Number of year (n) = 18 years

Find:

Future requirement of water = ?

Computation:

Future\ requirement\ of\ water = C(1+g)^n\\\\Future\ requirement\ of\ water = 48,000(1+0.05)^{18}\\\\ Future\ requirement\ of\ water = 48,000(1.05)^{18}\\\\ Future\ requirement\ of\ water = 48,000(2.4)\\\\Future\ requirement\ of\ water = 115,517 (Approx)

Future requirement of water = 115,517 (Approx) mega-liters

Amira is told there is a trick to finding the slope within an equation in standard form, Ax+By=C. She is told she can rewrite th
Advocard [28]

Answer:

B. In slope-intercept form, the slope is − 7/9. These values are A and B, but with the opposite sign, so the slope of the line from the equation in standard form is − A/B.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Let's convert the standard equation into slope-intercept form:</u>

  • Ax + By = C              ⇒ subtract Ax from both sides
  • By = -Ax + C             ⇒ divide both sides by B
  • y = -A/Bx + C/B        ⇒ converted to slope- intercept form

As we see the slope is -A/B

<u>The equation 7x + 9y = 14 is converted as:</u>

  • y = -7/9x + 14/9, where the slope is -7/9

<u>Looking at the answer options and the correct one is option B, where both identification of slopes match.</u>

  • B. In slope-intercept form, the slope is − 7/9. These values are A and B, but with the opposite sign, so the slope of the line from the equation in standard form is − A/B.

A 1500 kg weather rocket accelerates upward at 10 m/s2 . It explodes 2.0 s after liftoff and breaks into two fragments, one twic
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

V2=-20.0155m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question we will use the principle of conservation of momentum which is

MtVt=M1V1+M2V2

1) let's find the initial velocity.

We will use,

v=a*t

v=10m/s2*2s = 20 m/s

d=vot+1/2*a*t2

d=0+1/2*10*4

d=20m

2) For the speed of the lighter piece we use,

v22=v12+2ad

0=v12+2*-9.81*(530-20)

v12=10006.2

v1=100.031m/s

3) Computing this in our conservation of momentum equation it will be-

MtVt=M1V1+M2V2

1500kg*20m/s=(1500*1/3)kg*100.031m/s + (1500*2/3)+V2

30000=50015.5+1000V2

Therefore V2=-20.0155m/s.
