What is the percentage of salt in the solution made of 9 on of water and 3 lb of salt

Answers

Answer 1

The percentage composition of salt in the solution is; 84.2%.

What is the percentage composition of salt?

Since, it follows that there are 16 ounces in 1 pound. Then the 3 lb of salt is equivalent to; 3×16 = 48ounces.

Consequently, the percentage of salt in the solution as described is;

{48/57} × 100%

Percentage composition of salt is therefore;

= 84.2%.

The area of a rectangle is lw or length * width.

We can add the parts to make up the whole of each side.

Thus, for the entire width, we have 4x+3 and for the entire length we have 8 + 5x.

To solve for area in terms of x, we just multiply our width and length, which gives us:

A whale swimming against an ocean current traveled 140 mi in 7 h. Swimming in the opposite direction, with the current, the whale was able to travel the same distance in 3.5 h. Find the speed of the whale in calm water and the rate of the ocean current.

Answers

The whale exists swimming at 30 mph in calm water and the current exists flowing at 10 mph.

How to estimate the speed of the whale in calm water and the rate of the ocean current?

Let x be the speed of a whale in calm water

and y be the speed of the current

In 7 hours the whale swims against the current and travels 140 miles:

7(x - y) = 140

x - y = 140/7

x - y = 20 ...........(1)

In 3.5 hours the whale swims the same distance with the current:

3.5(x + y) = 140

x + y = 140/3.5

x + y = 40 ...........(2)

Adding (1) and (2), we get the value of x:

x - y = 20  + ...........(1)

x + y = 40 ...........(2)

-----------------

2x = 60

x = 60/2

x = 30

Using this value for "x" in either (1) or (2) we can solve for "y":

x - y = 20 ...........(1)

substitute for "x"

30 - y = 20

10 = y

Therefore, the whale exists swimming at 30 mph in calm water and the current exists flowing at 10 mph.

the the area of a rectangle with perimeter 40 cm and 75 cm square find the length and width of the rectangle​

Answers

Answer: 15cm and 5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle's area is the product of the length and width

Given length x and width y, 2x+2y = 40 and x*y = 75.

Verifying my answer:

2(15)+2(5) = 40

30+10 = 40

40 = 40

15*5 = 75

75= 75

This is a week late so I hope this helped.

The length and the width of the rectangle​ are 15cm and 5cm respectively

How to find the length and width of the rectangle​?

The given parameters are:

Area (A) = 75

Perimeter (P) = 40

The area of a rectangle is LW, while the perimeter is 2(L + W)

So, we have:

LW = 75

2(L + W) = 40

Divide by 2

L + W = 20

Make L the subject

L = 20 - W

Substitute L = 20 - W in LW = 75

(20 - W)W = 75

Expand

20W - W^2 = 75

Rewrite as:

W^2 - 20W + 75 = 0

Expand

W^2 - 15W - 5W + 75 = 0

Factorize

(W - 15)(W -5) = 0

Split

W - 15 = 0 or W - 5 = 0

Solve for W

W = 15 or W = 5

Recall that:

L= 20 - W

So, we have

L = 20 - 15 or L = 20 - 5

This gives

L = 5 or L = 15

Hence, the length and the width of the rectangle​ are 15cm and 5cm respectively

36 Adult Tickets. 352 Student Tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have to create 2 expressions to solve a problem like this. If we use the variable s to mean student and a to mean adult, we can create the expressions:

3s + 6a = 1272 to represent how much they made with all ticket sales

s = 10a - 8 to represent how many student tickets there are.

Now, we plug our definition of s into the first expression to get:

3(10a - 8) + 6a = 1272

30a - 24 + 6a = 1272

36a - 24 = 1272

36a = 1296

a = 36

We have determined the number of adult tickets so we can move on to the number of students:

s = 10(36) - 8

s = 360 - 8

s = 352

Answers

The volume of the storage bin given the radius and heights is 1050.79ft³.

What is the volume of the storage bin ?

The volume of the storage bin is the sum of the volume of the cylinder and the cone. A cylinder is a three-dimensional object that is made up of a prism with a circular base.

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Where:

π = 3.14r = radiush = height

3.14 x 5.7² x 7.5 = 765.14 ft³

A cone is a three dimensional object that tapers from its circular base to its apex.

Volume of a cylinder = 1/3πr²h

Where:

π = 3.14r = radiush = height : 15.9 - 7.5 = 8.4 ft

1/3 x 3.14 x 5.7² x 8.4 = 285.65 ft³

A shipping company must design a closed rectangular shipping crate with a square base. The volume is 2880ft3. The material for the top and sides costs $3 per square foot and the material for the bottom costs $7 per square foot. Find the dimensions of the crate that will minimize the total cost of material.

Answers

The dimensions of the crate that will minimize the total cost of material are 10, 10, and 29.

How to compute the dimension?

The volume will be:

= Length × Width × Height

= lwh

For the square base, w = l

2880 = w²h

The cost function will be:

C = 12wl + 4wh + 4lh

Put l = w.

C = 12w² + 8wh

C = 12w² + 8w(2880/w²)

C = 12w² + 23040/w

Differentiate with respect to w

C'(w) = 0

24w = 23040/w²

24w³ = 23040

w³ = 960

w = 10 approximately

The length is 16 as well as they are the same. The height will be:

= 2880/w²

= 2880/10²

= 28.8 = 29

Therefore, the dimensions are 10, 10, and 29.

Mia has 24 yards of ribbon. She gave 10 yards to her sister. Mia now wants to work on a project that requires 2 1/4 yards of ribbon per project. What is the greatest number of projects Mia can complete with this ribbon.

(Optional, just please write down step by step explanation) PLEASE ANSWER WITH EXPLANATION AS IF YOU WERE WRITING DOEN ON SCRATCH PAPER

Answers

Answer:

6 projects

Step-by-step explanation:

Original ribbon length = 24 yards

After 10 yards given to sister, Mia is left with 24-10 = 14 yards of ribbon

Each project requires 2 1/4 yards of ribbon.

2 1/4 is 9/4 yards as an improper fraction (2 * 4 + 1 is the numerator and the denominator is unchanged)

We now have to figure out how many times 9/4 yards goes into 14 yards.

For this,

14 ÷ 9/4.
To do this, flip the numerator and denominator of the fraction and multiply

14 ÷ 9/4 = 14 × 4/9 = 56/9 . We ignore any remainder.

9 goes into 56 6 times with remainder of 2 (ignore remainder)
In other words the greatest number of projects = 6

The probability that a randomly selected PC costs more than 1200 will be 0.006. The least expensive 10% of personal computers cost less than what amount will be 820.8.

What is a normal distribution?

The Gaussian distribution is another name for it. The most significant continuous probability distribution is this one. Because the curve resembles a bell, it is also known as a bell curve.

The z-score is given as

z = (x – μ) / σ

Where μ is the mean, σ is the standard deviation, and x is the sample.

The average price of a personal computer (PC) is $949.

If the computer prices are approximately normally distributed and standard deviation is $100.

Then the probability that a randomly selected PC costs more than 1200 will be

z = (1200 – 949) / 100

z = 2.51

Then  the probability will be

P(x > 1200) = P(z > 1200)

P(x > 1200) = 1 – P(z < 1200)

P(x > 1200) = 1 – 0.99396

P(x > 1200) = 0.0060366

The least expensive 10% of personal computers cost less than what amount will be

z-value for 10% will be -1.282.

– 1.282 = (x – 949) / 100

At what time will they meet?

Answers

Answer:

3:04

Step-by-step explanation:

see image

They will meet after 4 minutes from 3:00 p.m. So, they will meet at 3:04 p.m.

Let's find the time it takes for Tommy and his Dad to meet.

Let t be the time (in seconds) from 3:00 p.m. when they meet.

Tommy's distance covered (T) after t seconds is given by:

T = Tommy's speed * t

   = 1.35 m/s * t

His Dad's distance covered (D) after t seconds is given by:

D = Dad's speed * t

  = 1.65 m/s * t

Since they meet when the sum of their distances is equal to the total distance between home and school, we can write the equation:

T + D = 720 meters

Substitute the expressions for T and D:

1.35t + 1.65t = 720

t = 240 seconds

Since 1 minute is equal to 60 seconds, let's convert the time to minutes:

t = 240 seconds / 60 seconds/minute

t = 4 minutes

They will meet after 4 minutes from 3:00 p.m. So, they will meet at 3:00 p.m. + 4 minutes = 3:04 p.m.
