Answer:

Small bag = 15 kg

Medium bag = 22.5 kg

Large bag = 52.50 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

A pile of sand has a weight of 90 kg.

The sand is put into a small bag,a medium bag and a large bag in the ratio 2 : 3 : 7.

A small base has 2 of total weight of sand.

A medium bag has 3 of total weight of sand.

A large bag has 7 of total weight of sand.

Amount of sand in small bag =\dfrac{2}{12}\times 90 =15\ kg

Amount of sand in medium bag =\dfrac{3}{12}\times 90 =22.50\ kg

Amount of sand in large bag =\dfrac{7}{12}\times 90 =52.50\ kg

Hence, The weight of sand in small bag is 15 kg, medium bag is 22.50 kg and large bag is 52.50 kg.

Hi there:)
Total ratio
2+3+7=12
Now find the weight of sand in each bag

Small bag
90×(2÷12)
=15 kg
Medium bag
90×(3÷12)
=22.5
Large bag
90×(7÷12)
=52.5

Hope it helps

Sound travels about 335 meters/second. How many kilometers would a sound travel in 1 minute?
Lelechka [254]
If sounds travel 335 meters in 1 second , in 1 minute it travels 60 times that distance :

335m × 60 = 20100 meters
Sounds travel 20100 meters per minute
if 1000 meters = 1 km ,
20100 meters = 20100/1000 km
20100 meters = 20.1 Km

Awnser : Sound would travel 20.1 km in one minute

ONLY ANSWER IF YOU KNOW THE ANSWER OR IF YOU ARE NIHHA :)) thanks

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's just call the number x for simplicity.

So, 7x is 8 less than x².

Putting this into an equation would look like this

x² - 8 = 7x

It looks like we'll have to factor this to solve. Before we do that we need to move the 7x to the left side so that everything is together.

x² - 7x -8 = 0

Now, we can proceed. To factor we first need to find the factors of -8.

The factors of -8 are

-2 ⋅ 4, -4 ⋅ 2, -1 ⋅ 8, 1 ⋅ -8.

We need to find the pair of factors that adds up to -7. The only ones that do are -1 and 8.

So now that we have these we can create a pair of binomials using them. This will give us the factored form of this equation.

( x + 1 ) ( x - 8 )

To find the solutions we will have to set them to 0 and solve each of these binomials individually.

x - 1 = 0

x = 1

So, one of the solutions is 1. It's not the one we want, since it's positive.

x - 8 = 0

x = 8

This is the one we want since it is positive.
