A young sumo wrestler decided to go on a special high-protein diet to gain weight rapidly. When he started his diet, he weighed

79.579.579, point, 5 kilograms. He gained weight at a rate of 5.55.55, point, 5 kilograms per month.
Let yyy represent the sumo wrestler's weight (in kilograms) after xxx months.
Which of the following could be the graph of the relationship?

Answer:

y=5.5x+79.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the sumo wrestler's weight (in kilograms) after x months.

When he started his diet, he weighed 79.5 kilograms, this means x = 0 months, y = 79.5 kg. So, y-intercept is at point (0, 79.5).

He gained weight at a rate of 5.5 kilograms per month, so the slope of the linear function is 5.5.

Hence the equation of the linear function in the slope-intercept form is

y=5.5x+79.5

The graph of this function is attached.

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The volume of the  larger cube is V=1,331\ cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---> the length of the smaller cube

y ---> the length of the larger cube

we know that

the volume of a cube is equal to

V=b^3

where

b is the length side of the cube

we have

x=y-5 ----> equation A

The volume of the smaller cube is 216 cm^3

so

substitute in the formula of volume

216=x^3

solve for x

x=\sqrt[3]{216}\ cm

x=6\ cm

<em>Find the value of y</em>

x=y-5

6=y-5

y=6+5=11\ cm

<em>Find the volume of the larger cube</em>

V=y^3

substitute the value of y

V=11^3

V=1,331\ cm^3

2 inches 3 inches Pivot. If 60 lbs. of force must be applied to the valve for it to open, how much upward force must push rod X
tresset_1 [31]

We can solve this problem by stating that the summation of momentums must be zero. That is, the momentum at one end of the pivot must be equal to the momentum at the other end.

Momentum 1 = Momentum 2

Since Momentum is the product of Force and Distance, and with this rule created, we can say that:

F1 * d1 = F2 * d2

Where,

F1 = 60 lbs

d1 = 2 inches from the pivot

F2 = unknown X

d2 = 3 inches from the pivot

Substituting to the equation to find for F2:

60 lbs * 2 inches = F2 * 3 inches

F2 = 40 lbs

 

<span>Therefore 40 lbs of upward force must be pushed to open the valve.</span>

State the size of angle OAB, giving a reason for your answer
Alja [10]

Answer:

Angle OAB = 90°

Reason: tangent theorem of a circle

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram given shows a tangent line of the given circle with center O. The tangent touches the circle at point A.

The diagram also shows the radius of the circle, OA, drawn from the center to the circle to meet at the point of tangency.

Thus, according to the Tangent Theorem of a circle, the point at which the radius drawn from the center meets the point of tangency = 90°. The tangent is perdendicular to the radius drawn to meet at the point of tangency.

Therefore, angle OAB = 90°

ziro4ka [17]
They are both correct in their computation

(28.5-28.5(.3))+.1(28.5-28.5(.3))=$21.945

28.5(.7)(1.1)=$21.945

And since they each have $22 to spend, they have enough to purchase the book.
