There are two factors that limit how much he can bake in a week: He only wants to work for 40 hours a week and he only has one o

ven. Suppose that it takes the baker 1hour to prepare a pair of cakes or a gross of cookies (before they are placed in the oven). Since he only wants to work 40 hours a week, his output of pairs of cakes x and his output of grosses of cookies y are constrained by the equation x+y=40.
To maximize the profit of the bakery, the first step is to find where the equations for all of the constraints intersect. For the following part, you will look at x+y=40 and y=0, which is also a constraint (specifically a minimum) since the baker cannot make a negative number of cookies.

Parts A and B might seem easier than most problems with linear systems, but in them you will use the basic techniques needed to solve any linear system: adding equations to cancel variables and substituting the value of one variable to find the value of the other.

Part A
One way of solving systems of linear equations is by adding a multiple of one equation to the other. The multiplier for the first equation is chosen so that one of the two variables will cancel out in the sum. What should you multiply the equation y=0 by so that when added to x+y=40 the variable y will cancel out?
Express your answer numerically.

Answer:

  -1

Explanation:

The coefficient of y in the equation x+y=40 is 1. To make the y-terms cancel when the second equation is added, its coefficient must be -1. It has a coefficient of 1 now, so that equation should be multiplied by -1.

  (x +y) +(-1)(y) = (40) +(-1)(0)

  x = 40 . . . . . . . simplified; y-terms were cancelled

When you drive through deep water, you should dry out your brakes by _____________. pumping your brakes and driving in low gear
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

By Applying pressure to the brakes

Explanation:

Driving cars through deep water that is more than 10cm can make the cars to float. Most modern cars are usually water- tight so they can start to float through water that is about 30cm deep, fast moving water is very powerful so one needs to be very careful when driving.

If the brakes are wet test them by pressing or tapping on them gently.

You can as well dry brakes by driving in low gear and applying pressure to the brakes.

What is weight if m is mass and g is gravitational force.
Nataly_w [17]
Weight is a force, and is defined as mass times acceleration. So (g is acceleration and m is mass):
F_g=mg

That's your answer.

A ball whose mass is 0.3 kg hits the floor with a speed of 7 m/s and rebounds upward with a speed of 4 m/s. if the ball was in c
Maurinko [17]
Newton's second law is stated as:
F=ma,

a = (7-4)/1.5 = 2 m/s^2 (it is a deceleration due to impact with floor. And thus the ball exerts force on the floor).

Therefore,

F= 0.3*2 = 0.6 N
