In the video, the water level was 15 milliliters before adding the chain, and 20 milliliters after adding the chain. When I weighed the chain, its mass was 67.2 grams.

I believe the chain is solid metal (not gold plated), but is probably a blend of gold and other metals. I looked up that gold has a density of 19.3 g/ml, while the other metals like silver and copper usually blended with gold have a combined density of about 9.7 g/ml.

Determine what percentage of the chain is gold, by mass, to at least 1 decimal place?

Answers

Answer 1

The percentage of gold will be equal to 39.7%

What are percentages?

The Percentage is defined as representing any number with respect to 100. It is denoted by the sign %.

1. First find the density of your chain

Density = mass / volume

Volume = displaced water volume

                     = Volume of Final level of water - initial level of water

                     = 20 ml - 15 ml = 5 ml

Mass = 66.7 g

Density = 66.7g / 5 ml = 13.34 g/ml

2. Second, write the density of the chain as the weighted average of the densities of the other metals:

Mass of gold x density of gold + mass of other metals x density of other metals, all divided by the mass of the chain.

Calling x the amount of gold, then the amount of other metals is 66.7 - x:

[(19.3x+(9.7)(66.7-x)] / 66.7 = 13.34

19.3x + 635.66 - 9.7x = 889.778

9.6x = 254.118

x = 26.47

Then, there are 26.47 grams of gold in 66.7 grams of chain, which yields a percentage of:

(26.47 / 66.7) x 100 = 39.7%

Therefore the percentage of gold will be equal to 39.7%

It would take 15men 8days to dig a trench of 240metres long.How many days would it take 18men to dig a trench of 360meters long working at the same Rate.

Answers

Using proportions, it is found that it would take 6.4 days for 8 men to dig a trench of 360 meters long working at the same rate.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, the rule of three is given as follows:

8 days - 15 men - 240 meters

x days - 18 men - 360 meters

The number of men is inverse proportional to the number of days, hence we divide 18 by 15 instead of 15 by 18, then:

[tex]\frac{8}{x} = \frac{18}{15} \times \frac{24}{36}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{x} = \frac{6}{5} \times \frac{4}{6}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{x} = \frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Applying cross multiplication:

5x = 32.

x = 32/5

x = 6.4 days.

What is velocity?

The change of displacement with respect to time is defined as Velocity. velocity is a vector quantity. It is a time-based component. Its standard unit is m/sec.

Given that the position of an object at time t is given by s(t) = 1 - 12t. Therefore, the velocity of the object can be written as,

V = ds/dt

   = d(1 - 12t)/dt

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can determine if it's a solution by plugging in the x and y-values of the point into the equation. If both sides are equal to each other, then it is a solution.

-3 is the x-value and -5 is the y-value, since an ordered pari is written in the form of (x,y).

Evaluate7x - 5y = 157(-3) - 5(-5) = 15-21 + 25 = 154 ≠ 15

Since both sides are not equal to each other, (-3,-5) is not a solution.

The square root of 4 is 2.  2 can be written 2/1 (an integer over and integer)

Estimate how much this will cost.

Answers

The total cost of putting the posters on the wall is $25.

What is the cost of putting the posters on the wall?

If the first poster on each end will be exactly even with the start of the wall, it means that after the two posters have been placed on either side of the wall, the total space left would be 10 feet (24 -  3 - 3 - 4 - 4).

After the first poster has been placed on both ends of the wall, a second poster would be placed on either ends of the wall. Total space now left is 4 feet (10 - 3 - 3). So there can only be four posters on the wall.

Total cost of 4 posters = 4 x $6.25 = $25

Answer: Choice C

===========================================================

Explanation:

Draw out a number line with -2 and 3 on it. These are the x coordinates of the given points. Add up these values and divide by 2 to get the midpoint on the number line.

(A+B)/2 = (-2+3)/2 = 1/2 = 0.5

The value 0.5 is the midpoint of -2 and 3. This midpoint is equally spaced from both endpoints.

Therefore, the x coordinate of the midpoint is 0.5

Repeat this idea for the y coordinates

Add: 4 + 7 = 11

Divide the result in half:  11/2 = 5.5

The y coordinate of the midpoint is 5.5

The overall midpoint itself is located at (x,y) = (0.5, 5.5)

This is why choice C is the final answer.

Answers

Answer:

0.29287

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to use the binomial cumulative distribution function (binomcdf). The purpose of this function is that it allows you to obtain the probability of observing less than or equal to x successes in n trials, with the probability p of success on a single trial.

x in this case is 182, n is 200, and p is 0.9005. Essentially by inputting these values, we find the probability that out of 200 passengers with a 0.9005 chance of getting on the plane, that 182 or less show up.

This gives us P(x <= 182) = 0.70713. (You need your calculator for this step, input the values above in the binomcdf function)

We want to find the probability of more than 182 passengers showing up though, so it would be 1 - 0.70713 = 0.29287.

Thus the probability that when 200 reservations are accepted for the flight, there are more passengers than seats available is 0.29287.

So the interval in which f(x) is positive seems to be finite and using this table it appears to be at (-2, 1) and make sure to use parenthesis since at f(-2) and f(1) it's not positive, because 0 is not positive, so it's not included in the interval
