Total weight = 50 lb
x = number of 3-lb weights
y = number of 10-lb weights

weight of 3-lb weights = 3x
weight of 10-lb weights = 10y
total weight = 3x + 10y

equation
3x + 10y = 50

The m6 = (11x + 8)° and m7 = (12x – 4)° What is the measure of 4? m4 = 40° m4 = 48° m4 = 132° m4 = 140°
bezimeni [28]
M< 6 = m< 7 (vertical angles)
11x + 8 = <span>12x – 4
12x - 11x = 8 + 4
 x = 12
so
m< 6 = </span>11x + 8 
m< 6 = 11(12) + 8
m< 6 = 132 + 8
m< 6 = 140

m<4 = 180 - m<6
m<4 = 180 - 140
m<4 = 40

answer

<span>m<4 = 40</span>

A runner increases his velocity from 0 m/s to 20 m/s in 2.0s. What was his average acceleration?
xenn [34]

change in velocity = 20 - 0 = 20

change in time = 2 seconds

Divide the change in velocity over the change in time: 20/2 = 10

The average acceleration is 10 m/s^2

I.e, each second, the speed increases by 10 m/s

Hunter-Best [27]
<span>Answer: Q3 represents 75%, meaning a z of ~0.67 80 - 70 is 10, so the standard deviations is ~14.9. 10 / 0.67 = 14.9 now find the z that represents a score of 90 90 - 70 is 20 20 / 14.9 = 1.34 from a z-table, a z of 1.34 represents a probability of ~90.99% meaning that there is about a 9.01% chance of getting a 90 or better.</span>
