Answer:

W = K m / R^2    expresses weight of ojject

W2 / W1 = (R1 / R2)^2        ratio of W2 to W1

W2 = W1 * (3960 / 3975)^2 = 50 * .992 = 49.62 lbs

Two consecutive odd integers have a sum of -152. What are the two integers?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

-75 and -77

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be wrote as n+n+2=-152. Combine like terms and subtract 2 from both sides to get 2n=-154. Divide by two to get n=-77 and then add two to get -75.

The polynomial equation x^6-16x^2=4x^4-64 has complex roots +- 2i . What are the other roots? Use a graphing calculator and a sy
Irina18 [472]
Use u subsitution the solve by grouping
u=x^2
u^3-16u=4u^2-64
u^3-4u^2-16u+64=0
(u^3-4u^2)+(-16u+64)=0
u^2(u-4)+(-16)(u-4)=0
(u^2-16)(u-4)=0
(u-4)(u+4)(u-4)=0
(u+4)(u-4)^2=0

u=x^2
(x^2+4)(x^2-4)^2=0
(x^2+4)((x-2)(x+2))^2=0
(x^2+4)(x-2)²(x+2)²=0
set to zero

x^2+4=0
x^2=-4
x=+/-2i

x-2=0
x=2

x+2=0
x=-2

the other roots are -2 and 2
