We approach this problem using the conservation of linear momentum, which tells us that m1 x v1 = m2 x v2. We substitute the values of m1, v1 and v2, and solve for m2: 48x1.2=m2x16; m2=57.6/16=3.6 kg.

To determine which is better value, we need to determine the price per gram of each washing powder.
Bag 1:
For the 600g bag, this is done by dividing the price by the number of ...

An implicity function is one that is not expressed in the form y = f(x) such as the equation in the question. Instead of rearranging the equation to make y the subject, the equation can be differentiated ...

The method we shall use is substitution. We shall replace y each term by 'x + 1' so we are able to obtain an equation in one variable. x^2 + (x+1)^2 + 18x + 20(x+1) + 81 = 0. We now expand the brackets. x...

Multiply through by both denominators, giving us the equation (2x + 3)(2x + 1) - (2x - 8)(x - 4) = (x-4)(2x +1). If we expand the brackets, we arrive at 4x^2 + 8x + 3 - (2x^2 -16x + 32) = 2x^2 -7x -4. If ...
