Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a1 = 6
an = 3 + 2(an-1),
Substitute n = 2 into the formula
a2 = 3 + 2(a1)
a2 = 3 + 2(6)
a2 = 3+12
a2 = 15
Hence the second term of the sequence is 15
Answer:
a) density of the object is 3995.01, b) the weight scale reads 22N c) the sum individually will be the same with when added together.
Step-by-step explanation:
The weight of the object in air is 8N,
and weight = Mass * acceleration due to gravity = m * 9.81
8/9.81 = 0.815,
upthrust( force acting on the body from the liquid impeding the immersion) on the body when fully submerged = weight in air - weight in water = 8N - 6N =2N
Upthrust = weight of water displaced = 2N = mass * acceleration
2/9.81 = 0.204kg
density of water(1000kg/m^3) = mass of water / volume of water
volume of water displaced = 0.204/1000 = 0.000204m^3 (204cm^3)
volume of water displaced = volume of the solid
density of solid = mass/ volume = 0.815/0.000204 = 3995.01kg/m^3
b) when fully submerge in water the the scale experience according to newton third law of motion ( equal and opposite reaction of forces) additional 2N push so that total weight with the fully submerge solid = 20N + upthrust = 20N + 2N =22N
c) the of two scale reading is before (8N + 20N = 28N) and after (6N + 22N = 28) since there is no loss of matter; the demonstration was in equilibrium.
The easiest way, I think, is to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction, then multiply by 3.
3 1/2 = 7/2
7/2 · 3 = 21/2
now just change the improper fraction back to a mixed number by dividing and putting the remainder into fraction form
21/2 = 10 1/2
You could also multiply the whole number by 3 and the fraction by 3, ending up with 9 3/2, but then have to convert the improper fraction into a mixed number
3/2 = 1 1/2
then add the numbers together
9 + 1 1/2 = 10 1/2
either way works, whatever is easiest for you.
Answer: the system of equations are
3x + 2y = 170
4x + 6y = 360
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the price of a child's ticket in dollars.
Let y represent the price of an adult's ticket in dollars.
The Brown family paid 170 for 3 children and 2 adults. This would be expressed as
3x + 2y = 170
The Peckham family paid 360 for 4 children and 6 adults. This would be expressed as
4x + 6y = 360
There are two congruent triangles that are being formed from the lamppost, the light, the ground and the man. Always try to draw a picture for these types of problems. It helps a lot when solving. Your answer should be about 4.3ft
