Answer:
The density is equal to the weight divided by the volume:
The paperweight weights 300 grams.
Step-by-step explanation:
The density of the paperweight can be calculated knowing the weight and the volume of this paperweight.
The density is equal to the weight divided by the volume:
We know that the density of this paperweight is 1.5 grams per cm3, and its volume is 200 cm3.
We can use the formula of the density to calculate the weight:
The paperweight weights 300 grams.
Answer:
7 days
Step-by-step explanation:
At 25% per day, it will take approximately 3 days to double the population, so approximately 6 days for the population to quadruple. Checking that number, we find it is not quite enough for the experiment, so another day is required.
"Guess and check" as a method of solution works especially well if you have an automated checker to evaluate your guess. A graphing calculator or spreadsheet can work well for this.
_____
We guess 3 days as the doubling time using the "rule of 72" that says the product of percentage and doubling time is about 72. That is, 72/25 ≈ 3. (This is only a very rough approximation of doubling time, best for rates near 8%.)
Answer:
Here's one way to do it
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Solve the inequality for y
5x - y > -3
-y > -5x - 3
y < 5x + 3
2. Plot a few points for the "y =" line
I chose
\begin{gathered}\begin{array}{rr}\mathbf{x} & \mathbf{y} \\-2 & -7 \\-1 & -2 \\0 & 3 \\1 & 8 \\2 & 13 \\\end{array}\end{gathered}
x
−2
−1
0
1
2
y
−7
−2
3
8
13
You should get a graph like Fig 1.
3. Draw a straight line through the points
Make it a dashed line because the inequality is "<", to show that points on the line do not satisfy the inequality.
See Fig. 2.
4. Test a point to see if it satisfies the inequality
I like to use the origin,(0,0), for easy calculating.
y < 5x + 3
0 < 0 + 3
0 < 3. TRUE.
The condition is TRUE.
Shade the side of the line that contains the point (the bottom side).
And you're done (See Fig. 3).
