Answer:

x = 14 - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

*The key word 'less than' means to subtract.

x + 3 = 14 is incorrect. Kiran isn't adding weight to his backpack.

In other words, the backpack didn't increase in pounds.

3(x) = 14 is incorrect. Multiplying is irrelevant to this problem, it's not saying Kiran's backpack is 3 times a number equal to Clare's backpack weight.

x = 143 is incorrect. This equation is unrealistic.

x = 14 - 3 is correct. This equation is explaining that Kiran's backpack is 3 pounds less than Clare's backpack (14)

Three small circles C1, C2, and C3, each with radius 0.1 and centered at the origin are in the xy-, yz-, and xz-planes, respecti
den301095 [7]

Curl is defined as:

\bigtriangledown \times F=\frac{ \int F.dr}{Area}

Which can be rewritten as:

\frac{ \int F.dr}{Area}=\frac{ \int_{C_1} Fdr}{Area}\widehat{k}+\frac{ \int_{C_2} Fdr}{Area}\widehat{i}+\frac{ \int_{C_3} Fdr}{Area}\widehat{j}

This is because C1 lies on the xy plane and thus it's unit vector will be \widehat{k}.

By similar arguments the rest will follow too.

Now, area of each circle will be: \pi \times (0.1)^2=0.01 \pi

Therefore, Curl, as per our definition will be:

\frac{\int F.dr}{Area}=\frac{0.01\pi}{0.01\pi}\widehat{k}+\frac{0.4\pi}{0.01\pi}\widehat{i}+\frac{5 \pi}{0.01\pi}\widehat{j}

Thus, Curl=40\pi \widehat{i}+500\pi \widehat{j} +\widehat{k}

Which is the required answer.

Marlon bought 7/8 pound of turkey at the deli. he used 2/3 of it to make sandwiches for lunch. How much of the turkey did Marlon
OLga [1]
So 2/3 as a decimal would be 0.66 and 7/8 as a decimal would be 0.125 so if you subtract the 2 decimals it would give you the answer of 49 slices.

i hope i'm right! :)
