Response:

Steps 1 and 5

Detailed explanation:

To amend the work, the following issues must be addressed

In step 1, an additive inverse is mentioned; however, it actually does not represent an additive inverse, since it pertains to the opposite in relation to a number, yet there is no opposing number present

Moreover, the correction needed in step 5 indicates simplification, but in reality, it should not be simplified

These are the corrections that should be made

zzz [12365]

Answer:

Aproximadamente 428 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Peso = 1,500 * 9.8 = 14,700 N

Densidad = Masa ÷ Volumen

1,030 = 1,500 ÷ V

V = 1,500 ÷ 1,030 = 1.46 m^3.

La fuerza de flotación = Densidad * g * V

La fuerza de flotación = 1,000 * 9.8 * (1,500 ÷ 1,030)

La fuerza de flotación = 9,800 * (1,500 ÷ 1,030) = 14,272 N.

La fuerza neta = 14,700 – [(9,800 * (1,500 ÷ 1,030)]

babunello [11817]

Detailed explanation:

Information provided:

Tran possesses a credit card that allows up to $2000 in spending with an APR of 12%.

In the initial month, Tran incurred charges of $450 and settled $150 within that billing period.

The formula to determine the interest that will accrue for Tran in the first month is (0.012)(300)

Here, 0.01 signifies the monthly interest rate.

The 300 reflects the outstanding balance, as Tran charged $450 but only paid back $150.

a pet store owner set the price of a bag of cat food at 50% above the cost. when it did not sell, the price was reduced 20% to 1
babunello [11817]

Answer:

The original cost amounts to $10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us denote the cost as x

where Price = x + (0.5x) = 1.50x

Now, the price after reduction is 20% of 1.50x

which is 0.3x \frac{20}{100}

This leads to the equation 1.50x - 0.3x = 12

resulting in 1.2x = 12

which gives us x = 10

\frac{12}{1.2}thus, the cost is $10

When Val checks her cable bill, she is shocked by her movie-rental bill for the month. Renting movies costs $2.99 for each movie
babunello [11817]
She ought to select the monthly plan for unlimited movies instead of paying $2.99 per film. This choice is advisable because if she continues paying this amount for each individual movie, her total monthly costs will rise significantly. For example, if she has 8 days off in a month (on Saturdays and Sundays) and pays for each film on those days, the total expense would exceed that of the unlimited monthly plan priced at $7.99. And that doesn't include other potential viewing days or any public holidays that could allow her to watch more movies.
