Two fifths of the candies in a bag are mint. There are 34 mint candies.

1 answer:

6 0

So 2/5 are mint. that should mean if you divide 34 with 2, you will get 1/5 of the candy. SO! Divide 34 with 2 and you will get 17. The muiltiply with 5 then you will get the answer...

85 candies!!!

The length, l cm, of a simple pendulum is directly proportional to the square of its period (time taken to complete one oscillat

Greeley [361]

Answer:

1) $L \propto T^2$

Using the condition given:

$2.205 m = K (3)^2$

$K = 0.245 \approx \frac{g}{4\pi^2}$

So then if we want to create an equation we need to do this:

$L = K T^2$

With K a constant. For this case the period of a pendulumn is given by this general expression:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Where L is the length in m and g the gravity $g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}$ .

2) $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

If we square both sides of the equation we got:

$T^2 = 4 \pi^2 \frac{L}{g}$

And solving for L we got:

$L = \frac{g T^2}{4 \pi^2}$

Replacing we got:

$L =\frac{9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} (5s)^2}{4 \pi^2} = 6.206m$

3) $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.98m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}}= 1.987 s$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1

For this case we know the following info: The length, l cm, of a simple pendulum is directly proportional to the square of its period (time taken to complete one oscillation), T seconds.

$L \propto T^2$

Using the condition given:

$2.205 m = K (3)^2$

$K = 0.245 \approx \frac{g}{4\pi^2}$

So then if we want to create an equation we need to do this:

$L = K T^2$

With K a constant. For this case the period of a pendulumn is given by this general expression:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Where L is the length in m and g the gravity $g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}$ .

Part 2

For this case using the function in part a we got:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

If we square both sides of the equation we got:

$T^2 = 4 \pi^2 \frac{L}{g}$

And solving for L we got:

$L = \frac{g T^2}{4 \pi^2}$

Replacing we got:

$L =\frac{9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} (5s)^2}{4 \pi^2} = 6.206m$

Part 3

For this case using the function in part a we got:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Replacing we got:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.98m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}}= 1.987 s$

Kenny types 280 words. How long did he type for? A.4 B. 5 C.6 D. 7

zlopas [31]

Are you sure you didn’t miss anything while writing the question?

Cause we have nothing to go off. Everybody types differently so there is no way for us to say how long he typed for, unless we were given aprox how many words he wrote in a minute or something

The graph of a sinusoidal function has a maximum point at (0,5)(0,5)left parenthesis, 0, comma, 5, right parenthesis and then ha

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

sinusoidal functions have the standard form of Asin(Bx - C) + D

Where A is the amplitude, 2pi/B gives us our period, C gives us our horizontal shifts in the opposite direction of the sign (because it's inside the parenthesis), and D gives us our vertical shifts in the same direction as the sign of D (positive or negative).

The easiest part is assigning the amplitude which is 3 as stated in the problem. This means that all of the max/mins of the graph will be multiplied by a factor of 3. However, this could be a positive or negative 3 depending on other info in the problem. We'll come back to this in a second.

We know 2pi/B = 8 in our problem. Solving for B gives us B = pi/4.

Now we need to find the corresponding maximum and minimums for a sin/cos function with a period of 8 by taking x values 0, pi/2, pi, 3pi/2, and 2pi (these are all values where normal sin/cos functions are either at their max/min or zero) and then divide each by pi/4. This will give us our new max/mins for a function with period 8. These values are 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8.

Since 2 is a minimum, then we know that there are no horizontal shifts. So C = o

Now we need to figure out if this is a sin or cos graph. A normal cos graph has a value of 0 at x = pi/2 which corresponds x = 2 in our problem. Your problem says that x = 2 will give us a minimum value so this tells us that our function must be a sin graph, not a cos graph. However, a sin graph has a maximum at 2 (which is pi/2 in a normal sin graph) while your problem calls for a minimum. This means that the amplitude we found earlier of 3 must actually be a -3 (I told you we'd get back to this!). The negative sign flips all of the maximums to minimums and vice versa of the sinusoidal graph.

Ok, let's put together what we know so far. A = -3, B = pi/4, and C = 0. So f(x) = -3sin((pi/4)x) + d

......But what about D?

Well, your problem says that one minimum of the graph is (2,1). In a graph without vertical shifts, we would expect the minimum to be at (2,-3). The difference between -3 and 1 is 4. This means in order to get from -3 to 1 we have to shift upwards of 4 units. In other words, D = 4.

Answer: -3sin((pi/4)x) + 4

What is the greatest common factor of 60x4y7, 45x5y5, and 75x3y? 5xy 15x3y 45x3y5 75x5y7

Pepsi [2]

I believe it’s 5xy since all the numbers are factors of five and since each number contains the variables xy.
