Answer:
a) 9000 ft-lb
b) 9000 ft-lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation for the work:
The equation for the work done is given by:

In which F is the force needed and d is the distance. The time does not interfere on the work.
A 300-lb gorilla climbs a tree to a height of 30 ft
This means that 
Thus

The work done in both cases is of 9000 ft-lb, as the work is not a function of time.
Let 2x – y = 3 ——— equation 1
Let x + 5y = 14 ——— equation 2
Making x the subject in eqn 1, = x = y + 3 / 2 ——— eqn 3
• Put eqn 3 in eqn 2
(y + 3 / 2) + 5y = 14
6y = 14 – 3/2
6y = 25/2
y = 25/12
• put y = 25/12 in eqn 3
x = (25/12 + 3/2)
x = 43/12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 3 = 3x + 35
4x + 3 = 35
4x = 32
x = 8
a. 60 miles/1 hour because 420/7
b. 12 customers/1 day because 360/30
c. 2.5 meters/1 sec because 40/16
d. $1.59/1 lb because 7.96/5
4 = 400/100
or 400 hundreths
