Ben's estimate gives 7 g of nickel; the actual amount is 8.03 g.
In 1 g of the substance, there is 0.52 g of copper and 0.25 g of zinc; this gives
0.52+0.25 = 0.77 g of the substance.
The remaining part of the substance is nickel:
1-0.77 = 0.23 g of nickel.
Using Ben's estimate, 0.2 g of nickel per gram of substance, we have
0.2(35) = 7 g of nickel in 35 g of the substance.
The actual amount is 0.23(35) = 8.03 g of nickel in 35 g of the substance.
Answer:
88 adult tickets were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
3s + 7a = 1102
(s + a = 250)-3
3s + 7a = 1102
+ -3s - 3a = -750 Add these equations together
4a = 352 Divide both sides by 4
a = 88
Now plug this into the second equation
s + a = 250
s + 88 = 250
- 88 - 88 Subtract 88 from both sides
s = 162

Well D I would think because 52 is greater than the other number :)
Hope this helps ^W^
Answer: The lamppost is 7 feet 2 inches
Step-by-step explanation: If Ann measured her own height and her shadow, then what she used is a ratio between both measurements. If she can measure the shadow of the lamppost, then she can use the same ratio of her height and it’s shadow to derive the correct measurement of the lamppost.
If Ann’s height was measured as 5 feet 3 inches, and her shadow was 8 feet 9 inches, the ratio between them can be expressed as 3:5.
Reduce both dimensions to the same unit, that is, inches. (Remember 12 inches = 1 foot)
Ratio = 63/105
Reduce to the least fraction
Ratio = 3/5
If the height of the lamppost is H, then
H/144 = 3/5
H = (144 x3)/5
H = 86.4
Therefore the lamppost is approximately 86 inches, that is 7 feet and 2 inches tall.
Answer:
The probability that the diameter falls in the interval from 2499 psi to 2510 psi is 0.00798.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define the random variable, 
"Comprehensive strength of concrete". We have information that 
is normally distributed with a mean of 2500 psi and a standard deviation of 50 psi (or a variance of 2500 psi). In other words, 
.
We want to know the probability of the mean of X or 
that falls in the interval ![[2499;2510]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B2499%3B2510%5D)
. From inference theory we know that :
Now we can find the probability as follows:
Where 
, then:
