It is known that a cable with a​ cross-sectional area of 0.300.30 sq in. has a capacity to hold 2500 lb. If the capacity of the

cable is proportional to its​ cross-sectional area, what size cable is needed to hold 70007000 ​lb?

Answer:

0.84 square in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the capacity of the cable is proportional to its​ cross-sectional area.

Mathematically,

C = k * A

A1 = 0.3 sq

C1 = 2500 lb

C2 = 7000 lb

C1/A1 = C2/A2

2500/0.3 = 7000/C2

= 7000 / 8333.33

= 0.84 square in.

Answer:

0.84 square in

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the capacity of the cable is proportional to its​ cross-sectional area. If a cable that is 0.3 sq in can hold 2500 lb then per square inch it can hold

2500 / 0.3 = 8333.33 lb/in

To old 7000 lb it the cross-sectional area would need to be

7000 / 8333.33 = 0.84 square in

Elodia [21]

Answer:

29 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total = \$43.25

Entrance\ Fee = \$7

Per\ Minute = \$1.25

Required

Determine the number of minutes (t) that he was on the trampoline.

This can be expressed as:

Total\ Payment = Entrance\ Fee + Amount\ per\ minute * t

Where t represents the number of minutes

Substitute values for Total, Entrance Fee and Amount per minute

43.25 = 7 + 1.25 * t

43.25 = 7 + 1.25t

Solving further to get the value of t, we have:

1.25t = 43.25 - 7

1.25t = 36.25

t = 36.25/1.25

t = 29

steposvetlana [31]
This is sort of weird to write without any numbers, but it's not too hard. take your info out of the word problem:

fit fast = fee per class
stepping up = fee per class + monthly fee

now you just change all of that into variables, essentially:

F = cx
S = cx + m

so, fit fast is the cost of classes (c) times the number of classes taken (x). stepping up is the cost of classes times x, PLUS that additional monthly fee (m).
