Adult weighs 12,500 pounds
it is 5 times heavier
baby = x

adult = 5x ( 5 times the weight of the baby)

12,500 = 5x

divide both sides by 5

x = 12500 / 5
x = 2500
the baby weights 2,500 pounds

(1 point) A particle starts at the point P=(−2,−1,3)P=(−2,−1,3) when t=0t=0 and moves along a straight line toward Q=(−4,0,6)Q=(

Ahat [919]

Answer:

The position is given by r(t) = (-2 -t √14, 1 + √3.5, 3 + 3√3.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The direction is given by the difference between the starting point and the end point, thus it is (-4,0,6)-(-2,-1,3) = (-2,1,3). The norm of this vector is √( (-2)²+1²+3²) = √14 = 3.7416 secons

Since the speed is 7 cm/sec, we need to multiply this vector by 7/√14 = √3.5 in order to obtain how much does the particle advance each second.

As a consecuence, it advances (-2,1,3) * √3.5 = (- √14, √3.5, 3 √3.5)

And, as a result, the position after t seconds is given by the function

r(t) = (-2,1,3) + t (-√14, √3.5, 3 √3.5) = (-2 -t √14, 1 + √3.5, 3 + 3√3.5)

The steps below show the incomplete solution to find the value of m for the equation 5m − 2m + 4 = −1 + 12: Step 1: 5m − 2m + 3

Delicious77 [7]

Given:

Consider the equation is:

$5m-2m+3=-1+12$

Some steps of the solution are given.

To find:

The next step of the solution.

Solution:

Step 1: The given equation is:

$5m-2m+3=-1+12$

Step 2: Simplifying right hand side.

$5m-2m+3=11$

Step 3: Simplifying left hand side.

$3m+3=11$

These steps are already given. So, the next step is:

Step 4: Subtracting 3 from both sides.

$3m=8$

Therefore, the correct option is (b).
