Slav-nsk [51]4 years ago

Answer: The answer is 449100 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the weight of an iceberg is 450,000 pounds. It looses 0.2% of weight everyday. We are to find the new weight of the iceberg at the end of the day.

Weight lost by the iceberg in one day will be

w_l=0.2\%\times 450000=\dfrac{0.2}{100}\times 450000=900~\textup{pounds}.

Therefore, the new weight of the iceberg at the end of the day will be

W_n=450000-w_l=450000-900=449100~\textup{pounds}.

Thus, the answer is 449100 pounds.

sherrie opened 5 bags of peanuts and counted a total of 75. At this rate, how many peanuts would be in 8 bags.
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

There should be 120 peanuts

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratio's to solve this problem

5 bags

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

75 peanuts


5 bags           8 bags

---------------  = ------------------

75 peanuts      x peanuts

Using cross products

5x = 75*8

5x = 600

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = 600/5

x = 120

The width of a box is two inches less than twice the height. The length is 4 inches less than three times the height. The volume
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Dimensions are 8 Inches by 14 inches by 20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box is 2240. This means:

lbh = 2240

Where b is the width.

Width is two inches less than twice the height

b = 2h - 2

length is 4 inches less than 3 times the height

l = 3h - 4

Substituting these parameters into the lbh equation will yield the following:

h * (3h - 4) * (2h - 2) = 2240

h[6h^2-14h+8] = 2240

6h^3 -14h^2 + 8h - 2240= 0

Solving this cubic equation will yield one of the values to be 8. The other two values are complex numbers.

b = 2h - 2

l = 3h - 4

b = 2(8) - 2 = 14

l = 3(8) - 4 = 20
