Answer:
x=1,
y=1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-8y=0
so 4x=8y
x=2y
5x+2y=6
because x=2y
so:
5x+x=6
6x=6
x=1;
then
x=2y
1=2y
y=1/2
Answer:
0.4kg, 1.4kg and 1.8kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of alloy = 3.6kg
Ratio of elements in the alloy = 2:7:9
Unknown:
Mass of each element in the alloy = ?
Solution:
To find the mass of each element in the alloy, first find the sum of the ratio;
2+7+9 = 18
Mass of nickel =
x 3.6 = 0.4kg
Mass of zinc =
x 3.6 = 1.4kg
Mass of copper =
x 3.6 = 1.8kg
The mass of each metal is 0.4kg, 1.4kg and 1.8kg
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using exponent rules, 2^3 * 2^-4 = 2^(3-4) = 2^-1 = 1/2
