The number of pounds of copper in 120 pounds of brass is = 78 pounds of copper

<h3>Calculation of number of pounds of copper</h3>

The percentage of copper in the brass = 65%

Therefore the quantity of copper in the brass = 65/100= 0.65 pounds

This means that 1 pound brass contains = 0.65 pounds of copper

The quantity of copper in 120 pounds of brass = 120 * 0.65

                                                                             = 78 pounds of copper.

Dominik [7]

Answer:

The percentage rate is 4.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given formula for simple interest is I=prt where I=simple interest, p=principle, r = percentage rate and t=time.  In the problem, we are told that after six years (t=6), $7000 (p=7000) earns $1890 (I=1890).  We can then substitute in the values for three of our variable to get the following:  1890 = (7000)(6)r.  Multiplying 7000x6 = 42000 giving us 1890 = 42000r.  Using inverse operations, we divide both sides of the equation by 42000 to get 0.045 = r.  Since r = percentage rate, we need to multiply our decimal by 100 to find the percentage.  0.045 x 100 = 4.5%.
