Including the bus driver, there are 15 people on a bus. During the bus ride, each person produces 750 BTUs (British Thermal Unit

s). The interior of the bus measures 38 feet by 8.5 feet by 6.25 feet. How many BTUs per cubic foot are produced?

This is the concept of applications of volume. We are required to calculate BTUs per cubic foot. This will be given by the formula:
(BTU)/volume
Total BTU=15*750=11,250
(assuming the bus is a perfect cuboid) volume of the bus will be;
volume=length*width*height
=38*8.5*6.25
=2018.75 ft^2
Thus the BTUs per foot will be:
11250/2018.75
5.57 BTUs/ft

The spring has a stiffness k=200n/m and is unstretched when the 25 kg block is at
g100num [7]
To solve this we are going to use the formula fro the force applied to a spring: F=ks
where
k is the spring constant 
s is the extension 

Since we know the F=ma, we can replace that in our formula and solve for a :
ma=ks
a= \frac{ks}{m}
where
a is the acceleration 
k is the spring constant
s is the extension 
m is the mass

We know for our problem that k=200, s=0.4, and m=25. So lets replace those values in our formula to find a:
a= \frac{ks}{m}
a= \frac{(200)(0.4)}{25}
a=3.5 \frac{m}{s^2}

We can conclude that the acceleration of the block when s=0.4m is 3.5 \frac{m}{s^2}.

Three orders are placed at a pizza shop. two small pizzas, a liter of soda, and a salad cost $14; one small pizza, a liter of so
mojhsa [17]
To determine the cost of each item, we need to set up equations. From the problem statement, we have three unknowns so we need three equations. We set up equations as follows:

let x cost of small pizzas
     y cost of soda
     z cost of salad
 
two small pizzas, a liter of soda, and a salad cost $14
2x + y + z = 14

one small pizza, a liter of soda, and three salads cost $15

x + y + 3z = 15

three small pizzas, a liter of soda, and two salads cost $22
3x + y + 2z = 22

Solving for x, y and z, we will have:

x = $ 5
y = $ 1
z = $ 3
