Answer: 1/5 or 0.2 in decimal form.
Explanation:
There are 60 seconds in a minute. We know the river flows 12 ft per 1 minute. So in order to find the rate per seconds, divide: 60/12. You get the answer: 1/5 or 0.2 in decimal form.
Let S be the amount in a savings account.
Let m be the number of months.
General equation
S = 132 + 27m
Specific question
July is the 7th month of the year including both January and July.
S = 132 + 7*27
S = 132 + 189
S = 321
Reasonableness?
Good question. You could estimate an answer.
Start with 150 dollars and say that you add 25 a month.
7 * 25 = 175
S = 150 + 175 = 325 All of this was done in my head. Since the exact answer obtained using the formula is 321, I think that's pretty reasonable using my estimate is a guide.
Okay so we get: subtract m + 8 from 5m + 11
5m + 11 = 16 + m or 16m
16m - 8 +m or 8m = 8m or 8 + m
At the bottom of the motion: The potential energy of the spring is at a maximum since the spring is stretched at its maximum extension. The potential energy due to gravity is at a minimum, since the mass is lifted the least amount above ground.
