Answer: 2561.7 pounds
Explanation:
If we assume the total weight of an airplane (in pounds units) as a <u>linear function</u> of the amount of fuel in its tank (in gallons) and we make a Weight vs amount of fuel graph, which resulting slope is 5.7, we can use the slope equation of the line:
(1)
Where:
is the slope of the line
is the airplane weight with 51 gallons of fuel in its tank (assuming we chose the Y axis for the airplane weight in the graph)
is the fuel in airplane's tank for a total weigth of 2390.7 pounds (assuming we chose the X axis for the a,ount of fuel in the tank in the graph)
This means we already have one point of the graph, which coordinate is:
Rewritting (1):
(2)
As Y is a function of X:
(3)
Substituting the known values:
(4)
(5)
(6)
Now, evaluating this function when X=81 (talking about the 81 gallons of fuel in the tank):
(7)
(8) This means the weight of the plane when it has 81 gallons of fuel in its tank is 2561.7 pounds.
Answer:
the answer is B.
Explanation:
The claim is correct because Student Y can apply a force that is greater in magnitude than the frictional forces that are exerted on the student-student-skateboard system
The cycle of cellular respiration and photosynthesis are important for the life of plants because cellular respiration uses one of the products of photosynthesis (oxygen), and uses it as one of the reactants along with glucose to produce carbon dioxide. These two cycles help maintain a balance for our atmosphere, even though pollution and other factors have disrupted this balance. Hope this helps! :)
