Caution: you need to use the same units of measurement throughout. If the spring stretches by 21 cm when a 135 newton object is attached, then you must ask for the mass (in newtons) of a fish that would stretch the spring by 62.1 cm.
We will need to assume that the spring is not stretched at all if and when no object is attached to the spring.
Write the ratio
21.0 cm 135 newtons
------------- = --------------------
62.1 cm x
Solve this for x. This x value represents the mass of a fish that would stretch the spring by 62.1 cm. You can cancel "cm" in the equation above:
21.0 135 newtons
------ = --------------------
62.1 x
Then 21.0x = (62.1)(135 newtons). Divide both sides of this equation by 21.0 to solve it for x.
Answer:
<h3>
y = 20</h3><h3 />
Step-by-step explanation:
line RPN = 180 = 4y - 10 + 90 + y
180 - 90 + 10= 5y
100 = 5y
y = 100/5
y = 20
In a dot plot, each one of the dots represents a value in the data set. When there are multiple values at a particular number, the dots just get stacked on top of each other. Using the dots in the plot, you can find the mean, median, mode or any other statistic that you need to summarize the data.
Answer:
m∠RQS = 72°
m∠TQS = 83°
Step-by-step explanation:
m∠RQS +m ∠TQS = m∠RQT
The two angles combine to make a larger angle
So
m∠RQS = (4x - 20)
m∠TQS = (3x + 14)
(4x - 20) + (3x + 14) = 155
Group the Xs and the constants
4x + 3x - 20 + 14 = 155
Combine like terms
7x - 6 = 155
Add 6 to both sides
7x = 161
Divide by 7 on both sides
x = 23
Check:
4(23) - 20 + 3(23) + 14 = 155
92 - 20 + 69 + 14 = 155
155 = 155
But we need to find m∠RQS and m∠TQS. So plug in x = 23 to the values.
m∠RQS = 4(23) - 20 = 72°
m∠TQS = 3(23) + 14 = 83°
Checking:
72 + 83 = 155
The value calculated by adding all the values of in a data set and dividing the sum by the number of values → Mean
The middle value when all the values are in order from least to greatest → Median
The value that appears most often in a data set → Mode
Hope this helped :)
