Two teams are engaged in a tug-of-war. according to newton’s third law, the red team pulls on the blue team with the same magnitude of force that the blue team pulls on the red team. how, then, can one team win?

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton's third law states that for every action there is an opposite and equal reaction. So as long as both teams pull with the exact same force the flag will stay in the middle and the game will be at a stale-mate.

This will continue until one of the two teams begin to exhaust their energy causing them to not be able to pull with the same force as before. This in term gives the opposing team the upper hand until one of the two win.

answer: i believe the answer is e

step-by-step explanation:

y=-2.5x+12.5

step-by-step explanation:

5y=2x+10

y=0.4x+2

slope=-2.5

5=-2.5*3+b

b=12.5
