When you stand on snow, the average pressure P (in pounds per square inch) that you exert on the snow varies inversely with the total area A (in square inches) of the soles of your footwear. Suppose the pressure is 0.43 pound per square inch when you wear the snowshoes shown. Write an equation that gives P as a function of A. Then find the pressure if you wear the boots shown. (A=400in^2)

Find the pressure if you wear the boots shown below. (A=60in^2)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.43*0.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The pressure on the snow if the area of the footwear is 400 in² is 0.0645 pounds per square inch.

What is pressure?

The force applied perpendicular to an object's surface per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure.

[tex]P= \dfrac{W}{A}[/tex]

As it is given that the pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the footwear. Therefore, the relation can be written as,

[tex]P\propto \dfrac{1}{A}\\[/tex]

Now, introducing a constant to remove the proportionality symbol, w that is the weight of the person, therefore,

[tex]P= \dfrac{W}{A}[/tex]

Now, as the area of the shoe is 60in²,  the pressure on the snow is  0.43 pounds per square inch. Therefore, the value of w can be written as,

[tex]0.43= \dfrac{W}{60}\\\\W = 25.8\rm\ pounds[/tex]

Now, the pressure on the snow if the area of the footwear is 400 in².

[tex]P= \dfrac{W}{A}\\\\P= \dfrac{25.8}{400}\\\\P = 0.0645 \rm\ pounds\ per\ inch^2[/tex]

Hence, the pressure on the snow if the area of the footwear is 400 in² is 0.0645 pounds per square inch.

Two triangles are cut from a rectangle to form a trapezoid. What is the ratio of the area of the trapezoid to the combined area of the triangles? A 18:54 C 54:18 B 18:72 D 72:18 12 in group of students is painting a background piece​

Answers

The image showing the trapezoid is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

C 54:18

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for area of trapezoid is;

A_trap = ½(sum of parallel sides) × height = ½(12 + (12 - (3 + 3))) × 6

A_trap = ½(12 + 6) × 6

A_trap = 54 in²

Combined area of triangle:

A_tria = 2 × ½ × 3 × 6 = 18 in²

Thus;

A_trap:A_tria = 54 in²:18 in² = 54:18

The image showing the trapezoid is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

C 54:18

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for area of trapezoid is;

A_trap = ½(sum of parallel sides) × height = ½(12 + (12 - (3 + 3))) × 6

A_trap = ½(12 + 6) × 6

A_trap = 54 in²

Combined area of triangle:

A_tria = 2 × ½ × 3 × 6 = 18 in²

Thus;

A_trap:A_tria = 54 in²:18 in² = 54:18

x - 6 = - 4

Answer: x = 2

x + 3 = -7

Answer: x = -10

5x = -2

Answer: x = -0.4

0.5x = 5

Answer: x = 10

The solutions to the equations as arranged are 2, -10, -0.4 and 10 respectively

Solving equations

Given the following equations

x − 6 = -4

Add 6 to both sides

x - 6 + 6 = -4 + 6

x = -4 + 6

x = 2

For the equation x + 3 = -7

Subtract 3 from both sides

x + 3 -3 = -7 - 3

x = -10

For the equation 5x = -2

x = -2/5

x = -0.4

For the equation

0.5x = 5

x = 5/0.5

x =10

Hence the solutions to the equations as arranged are 2, -10, -0.4 and 10 respectively

Does anybody know how to do this or at least part of it anything would really help!!

Answers

Answer:

So the given equation is h= -5t^2+40t

the first question asks when it will be 75 meters above the ground. So plug in 75 for h and find t

75= -5t^2+40t

start by dividing everything by 5

15= -x^2 + 8x

then you can add x squared to both sides and subtract 8x

x^2 - 8x + 15 =0

then you can plug it into the quadratic formula, which is a pain to type so I did it on paper.

x = 5 or 3

so it will be 75 meters above the ground at 3 seconds and 5 seconds

Rewriting the equation

ok so I accidentally already factored it when I divided everything by 5...

I believe the answer here is x^2 - 8x + 15 =0

The meaning of the x intercepts is when h=0 or the object is 0 meters above the ground (basically when it starts and when it ends)

the maximum height is greater than 75 because it gets to 75 meters 3 seconds after it is thrown, and continues going higher before it comes back to 75 two seconds later.

The object is airborne for 8 seconds because the second x intercept is at (8,0)

The distance from New York City to Riverhead is approximately 150 miles. On a map whose scale is 24mi= 2inch, what is the distance between the two locations in inches?​

Answers

Answer:

12.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Distance = 150\ miles[/tex]

[tex]Scale:= 24\ miles : 2\ inches[/tex]

Required

Determine the measurement in inches

Represent the inches equivalent with d.

So, the scale can also be calculated as:

[tex]Scale:= 150\ miles: d[/tex]

Equate both scales

[tex]150\ miles: d = 24\ miles ; 2\ inches[/tex]

Convert to fraction

[tex]\frac{d}{150\ miles} = \frac{2\ inches}{24\ miles}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{d}{150} = \frac{2\ inches}{24}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 150

[tex]150 * \frac{d}{150} = \frac{2\ inches}{24} * 150[/tex]

[tex]d = \frac{2\ inches}{24} * 150[/tex]

[tex]d = \frac{2\ inches * 150}{24}[/tex]

[tex]d = \frac{300\ inches}{24}[/tex]

[tex]d =12.5\ inches[/tex]
