Answer:

1.7 m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation

acceleration is change in velocity / time

so we do 13.6 - 0 = 13.6 gives us change in velocity

13.6/8 = 1.7 m/s^2 gives acceleration

Answer:

$\displaystyle y=\frac{16-9x^3}{2x^3 - 3}$

$\displaystyle y=-\frac{56}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation Solving</u>

We are given the equation:

$\displaystyle x=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3y+16}{2y+9}}$

To make y as a subject, we need to isolate y, that is, leaving it alone in the left side of the equation, and an expression with no y's to the right side.

We have to make it in steps like follows.

Cube both sides:

$\displaystyle x^3=\left(\sqrt[3]{\frac{3y+16}{2y+9}}\right)^3$

Simplify the radical with the cube:

$\displaystyle x^3=\frac{3y+16}{2y+9}$

Multiply by 2y+9

$\displaystyle x^3(2y+9)=\frac{3y+16}{2y+9}(2y+9)$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle x^3(2y+9)=3y+16$

Operate the parentheses:

$\displaystyle x^3(2y)+x^3(9)=3y+16$

$\displaystyle 2x^3y+9x^3=3y+16$

Subtract 3y and $9x^3$ :

$\displaystyle 2x^3y - 3y=16-9x^3$

Factor y out of the left side:

$\displaystyle y(2x^3 - 3)=16-9x^3$

Divide by $2x^3 - 3$ :

$\mathbf{\displaystyle y=\frac{16-9x^3}{2x^3 - 3}}$

ii) To find y when x=2, substitute:

$\displaystyle y=\frac{16-9\cdot 2^3}{2\cdot 2^3 - 3}$

$\displaystyle y=\frac{16-9\cdot 8}{2\cdot 8 - 3}$

$\displaystyle y=\frac{16-72}{16- 3}$

$\displaystyle y=\frac{-56}{13}$

$\mathbf{\displaystyle y=-\frac{56}{13}}$

Taryn bought 12.6 gallons of gasoline. There are approximately 3.8 liters in 1 gallon. Which measurement is closest to the numbe

Alina [70]

Answer:

<h2> Amount in liters is 47.9 liters</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The Question is incomplete, it does not provide the measurements or options to choose from, but we can estimate the answer

Step one:

Given data

Taryn Bought 12.6gallons of gasoline

1 gallon of gasoline is 3.8 liters

We want to convert from gallons to liters

Step two:

----if 1 gallon has 3.8 liters

then 12.6 gallons will have x liters

cross multiply we have

x= 12.6*3.8

x=47.88 liters

Hence the estimated amount in liters is 47.9 liters

3. A piece of white oak has a densityof 0.77 g/cm and a mass of 100 g,what would be the volume of thesample? PLEASE HELP!

Nezavi [6.7K]

$\text{Volume}=129.87cm^3$

Explanation

Step 1

the density of an object is given by:

$\text{density}=\text{ }\frac{mass}{\text{volume}}$

Step 2

let

$\begin{gathered} \text{density}=0.77\frac{g}{cm^3} \\ \text{mass}=\text{ 100 g} \\ \end{gathered}$

Step 3

replace,

$\begin{gathered} \text{density}=\text{ }\frac{mass}{\text{volume}} \\ 0.77\frac{g}{cm^3}=\frac{100g}{\text{volume}} \\ \text{volume}\cdot0.77\frac{g}{cm^3}=\text{1}00\text{ g} \\ \\ \text{Volume}=\frac{100\text{ g}}{0.77\frac{g}{cm^3}} \\ \text{Volume}=129.87cm^3 \end{gathered}$

3c+6=18 how do you work this problem?

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

c = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

3c + 6 = 18

Reorder the terms:

6 + 3c = 18

Solving

6 + 3c = 18

Solving for variable 'c'.

Move all terms containing c to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.

6 + -6 + 3c = 18 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0

0 + 3c = 18 + -6

3c = 18 + -6

Combine like terms: 18 + -6 = 12

3c = 12

Divide each side by '3'.

c = 4

Simplifying

c = 4
