In 6 seconds, a total of 3 waves crash into a cliff. The distance between 2 adjacent wave crests on the water is 8 meters.

Wavelength = 16 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

In 6 seconds, a total of 3 waves crash into a cliff.

The distance between 2 adjacent wave crests on the water is 8 meters.

We need to find the wavelength of the wave.

We know that, the distance between two consecutive wave is called wavelength of a wave.

We can understand that, total of 3 wave crests, the distance between first and second wave crest is 8 meters.

Hence, the wavelength is 8 m + 8 m = 16 m

what is the answer?

1.3

step-by-step explanation:

3x2=6   9x+6

bring down the 6 on both sides

6+6=12

12= 9x

divide by 9

12/9 =

1.3 =x
