Joan is thinking of a number. She adds 5 and multiplies it by 4. She then subtracts n of her original number and divides by 20.

She wants the answer to always be 1. What is the value of n?

4 0

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

(4n+5)-n/20=1
cross multiply:(4n+5)-n=20
4n+5=20+n
4n-n=20-5
3n=15
Divide both sides by coefficient of n
n=5

A beam of light from a monochromatic laser shines into a piece of glass. The glass has thickness L and index of refraction n=1.5

boyakko [2]

Additional information to complete the question:

How long does it take for a short pulse of light to travel from one end of the glass to the other?

Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables f and L. Use the numeric value given for n in the introduction.

T = ___________ s

Answer:

$T = \frac{15}{f}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Thickness og glass = L

Index of refraction n=1.5

Frequency = f

$Wavelength = \frac{L}{10}$

λ(air) $= \frac{L}{10}$

λ(glass) = λ(air) / n

= $\frac{\frac{L}{10}}{1.5}$

= $\frac{L}{10} * \frac{1}{1.5}$

= $\frac{L}{15}$

V(glass) = fλ(glass)

$= f * \frac{L}{15}$

$T = \frac{L}{V_{glass}} = \frac{15}{f}$

Perform the operation (9x^2+6x-7)+(-9x-5)

asambeis [7]

Answer:

9 $x^{2}$ -3x-12

9 $x^{2}$ +6x-7-9x-5

(Group liked terms)

9 $x^{2}$ +6x-9x-7-5

( subtract the numbers ) -7-5= -12

9 $x^{2}$ +6x-9x-12

( add similar elements ) 6x-9x=-3x

9 $x^{2}$ -3x-12
