Use the slope equation:
Plug in the points (2, 15) and (0, -1).
⇒
= 8
The slope of the line is 8.
F(-1)=2*(-1)+2
f(-1)=2-2
f(-1)=0
The heat produced by current I is
H = I²R
where
R = resistance.
According to the formula, heat produced is proportional to the square of the current.
When a current of I = 2 amps is applied, the heat produced is
H = 10x³ + 80.
This heat includes heat due to a fixed current of 2 amps, and heat due to a variable current of x amps.
Because the heat produced is proportional to the square of the current, write the expressions as
H = (10x)*(x²) + 20*(2²)
The second term on the right is heat due to the fixed current of 2 amps, written as
20*(2²).
Therefore the fixed resistance is R = 20 ohms, and the square of the fixed current is 2².
The first term represents heat due to variable resistance, written as
(10x)*(x²).
Therefore the variable resistance is 10x, and the square of the variable current is x².
Answer:
The variable current is 10x.
Complete question :
Mr. Nelson lost one of his students' test papers. He knows that the other 4 students scored as follows: 60, 62, 56, 57. He also knows that the average score is 59.2. What is the score on the missing paper?
Answer:
61
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Total number of students = 4 + 1 missing = 5
Score on the four avaliable papers = 60, 62, 56, 57
Average score of the 5 papers = 59.2
Score on missing paper :
Sum of each score / number of papers
Sum of each score = sum of available scores + missing score
Let missing score = m
(60 + 62 + 56 + 57 + m) = 235 + m
Recall:
Average = total sum / number of observations
Hence,
59.2 = (235 + m) / 5
59.2 × 5 = 235 + m
296 = 235 + m
m = 296 - 235
m = 61
Missing score = 61
