Answer:
5.14 mi/h
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the average speed, we simply find the total distance traveled by Tom and divide that by the total time the entire journey took him.
Average speed = (total distance traveled) / (total time taken)
TOTAL DISTANCE TRAVELED
He traveled 3 miles to and 3 miles fro. Hence:
3 + 3 = 6 miles
TOTAL TIME TAKEN
He spent ½ hr to go and ⅔ hr to return back. Hence:
½ + ⅔ = 7/6 hr
Therefore, the average speed is:
v = 6 / (7/6)
v = 36 / 7 = 5.14 mi/h
Tom's average speed was 5.14 mi/h.
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>

Answer: 64 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let assume the dealer sold the bottle now for $P, then invested that money at 5% interest. The return would be:
R1 = P(1.05)^t,
This means that after t years, the dealer would have the total amount of:
$P×1.05^t.
If the dealer prefer to wait for t years from now to sell the bottle of wine, then he will get the return of:
R2 = $P(1 + 20).
The value of t which will make both returns equal, will be;
R1 = R2.
P×1.05^t = P(1+20)
P will cancel out
1.05^t = 21
Log both sides
Log1.05^t = Log21
tLog1.05 = Log21
t = Log21/Log1.05
t = 64 years
The best time to sell the wine is therefore 64years from now.
His equation could be written in quadratic form, which is ax^2+bx=c
