0.2 (y+2) = 0.2y + 0.2(2)
= 0.2y + 0.4
For something to float the buoyant force ( force pushing up on the object to keep it floating) needs to equal the weight of the object
the answer would be: <span>weight of the ball</span>
1. You have that:
- The<span> lengths of the bases are (6x-1) units and 3 units.
- The midsegment has a length of (5x-3) units.
2. To solve this exercise, you must apply the formula for calculate the length of the midsegment of a trapezoid, which is shown below:
Midsegment=Base1+Base2/2
As you can see, the midsegment is half the sum of the bases of the trapezoid.
3. When you substitute the values, you obtain:
(5x-3)=[(6x-1)+3]/2
4. Now, you can solve the problem by clearing the "x":
</span>
(5x-3)=[(6x-1)+3]/2
2(5x-3)=6x-1+3
10x-6=6x+2
10x-6x=2+6
4x=8
x=8/4
x=2
