Answer:

455m

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that acceleration is acceleration due to gravity, which is 10m/s, and initial speed u=0m/s

Use the motion equation to find distance when t=10:

d=ut+(1/2)at²

d=0t+(1/2)(10)(10²)

d=500m

The distance travelled in the seven seconds following the first three = 500-45=455m

Write an equation for the following: y varies directly with x and z. Find K when x=2, y=12 and z=5.

$\qquad \qquad \textit{direct joint variation} \\\\ \textit{\underline{y} varies directly with \underline{x} and \underline{z}}~\hspace{8.5em} \stackrel{\textit{constant of variation}}{y=\stackrel{\downarrow }{k}xz~\hfill } \\\\ \textit{\underline{y} varies directly with \underline{x}, }w^2\textit{ and }z^5~\hspace{6em} \stackrel{\textit{constant of variation}}{y=\stackrel{\downarrow }{k}xw^2z^5~\hfill } \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$y = kxz\qquad \textit{we know that} \begin{cases} x=2\\ y=12\\ z=5 \end{cases}\implies 12=k(2)(5) \\\\\\ \cfrac{12}{(2)(5)}=k\implies \cfrac{6}{5}=k~\hspace{10em}\boxed{y=\cfrac{6}{5}xz}$
