If s=ut + 1/2 at^2 , a) make a the subject of the expression b) make u the subject of the expression c) if s=10, t=2 and u=4 find the value of a

a) s=ut + 1/2 at 2 Firstly , take the ut to the left hand side of the equation in order to isolate the 1/2 at 2 .s-ut=1/2 at 2 Then multiply both sides by 2 to leave just at 2 on the right hand side.2s-2ut=a...

Given that F(x) = X^2 - 10X + 17. Write F(x) in the form of (x+a)^2 + b = 0, where a, & b are constants.

So we know that our equation is: X 2 - 10X +17 = 0. STEP 1: rearrange this equation to get x on one side: X 2 - 10X = -17. Lets call this, "equation 1". STEP 2: Understand that (X + a) 2 = X 2 + 2a...

The Tour de France is 2162miles long. A cyclist knows his average speed his 12.37 miles/hour from his previous races. For the Tour de France the cyclist knows he will cycle for 10 hours a day. Estimate how many days it will take him to complete the race.

First you must figure out your estimates, in this case you can round 2162 down to 2000 and 12.37 to 10 to make your solutions easier. First you must calculate the total number of hours it is going to take hi...

What is the simplified expression of: 3a - a x 4a + 2a? And what rule do we use to carry out the simplification?

To simplify the expression we use B(rackets)I(nidices)D(ivision)M(ultiplication)A(ddition)S(subtraction) in this specific order.Hence, here the first thing we need to do is identify each element of BIDMASS. ...
