A problem states: "There are 2 more horses than cows in a field. There are 16 animals in the field in all. How many horses are t

here in the field?"
Let c represent the number of cows.

Which equation represents the situation?




2(c+2)=16

c + 2 = 16

2c + 2 = 16

2c−2=16

Answer:

Let c represent the number of cows

Let h represent the number of horses

There are 2 more horses than cows in a field

⇒there are extra two horses are always than cows

⇒ horses-cows =2

⇒ hourses=2+cows

⇒ h =2+c

There are 16 animals in the field in all.

⇒ h +c=16

⇒ (2+c)+c=16

⇒ 2+2c=16

⇒ 2+2c-2=16-2

⇒2c=16-2

⇒ 2c=14

c=7

What value of n makes the equation 4(0.5n − 3) = n − 0.25(12 − 8n) true?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

n = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

4(0.5n − 3) = n − <u>0.25(12 − 8n)</u>

2n - 12 = n - <u>3 + 2n</u>

2n - 12 = 3n - 3

2n - 3n =  - 3 +12

-1n  = 9

n = -9

A bullet with a mass of 0.005 kg is shot at a speed of 40
marin [14]

Answer:

combined velocity of the system = 0.033 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

taking the bullet and block as single system since there is no external force involved momentum is conserved .

initial momentum of the bullet = mv

where m is the mass of bullet and v is velocity of bullet.

and initial momentum of block = 0 since its velocity is 0.

therefore initial momentum of the system = mv

                                                                      = 0.005×40

                                                                      = 0.2

when the bullet stick of together with the block let the combined velocity of the system be V

therefore applying conservation of momentum

mv = (M+m)V

0.2=(6+0.005)V

therefore V = 0.033 m/s
