To determine the density of grains, a student uses a 50ml beaker graded by 5ml increments and a scale with 1g absolute uncertain

ty. The measurement of the volume results in 3 full beakers and 1 beaker filled up to 30ml. Measured mass of a plastic container with all the grains is 185 grams; measured mass of the same container without grains is 65 grams. What is the mass of the grains

Answer:

The mass of the grains = 120 ± 1 g

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following:

Total mass of container + grains = 185 grams

Mass of container = 65 grams

Therefore, mass of grains is calculated as follows:

Mass of grains = ( Mass of container + grains) - mass of container

= 185 - 65 = 120 grams.

since the scale has an absolute uncertainty of 1 g, the mass of the grains is written as 120 ± 1 g

To make concrete it takes 8 parts crushed gravel, 7 parts water and 5 parts cement mix. A worker needs to make 220kg of concrete
Alika [10]
A) 8 + 7 + 5 = 20 parts
b) 220 kg ÷ 20 = 11
c) <span> 8 parts crushed gravel: 8 x 11 = 88 kg
     7 parts water: 7 x 11 = 77 kg
     5 parts cement: 5 x 11 = 55 kg</span>

Three times the square of a certain positive number exceeds six times the number by nine. find the number:
d1i1m1o1n [39]
With the number being x, we have 3x^2>6(x/9). Expanding, we get 3x^2>6x/9 and 3x^2>2x/3. Dividing by x, we get 3x>2/3 and dividing by 3 we get x>2/9

Help me asap please!!!
Artemon [7]
Well, just by looking at the beginning of the problem, Jamelia had made the common mistake of thinking that 
\sqrt{72} (<span>8.4852...)
</span>is equal to 
2* \sqrt{36} (12)

If you want to estimate a square root like 72, simply find squares that would fit around the number you are looking to find, in our case, 72.

So 9*9 is 81, which is too high and 8*8 is 64, which is too low. So you know that somewhere between those numbers is what your root of 72 is!

A Square was altered so that one side is increased by 9 inches in the other side is decreased by 2 inches.The area of the result
LekaFEV [45]

Let s represent the length of any one side of the original square.  The longer side of the resulting rectangle is s + 9 and the shorter side s - 2.

The area of this rectangle is (s+9)(s-2) = 60 in^2.

This is a quadratic equation and can be solved using various methods.  Let's rewrite this equation in standard form:  s^2 + 7s - 18 = 60, or:

s^2 + 7s - 78 = 0.  This factors as follows:  (s+13)(s-6)=0, so that s = -13 and s= 6.  Discard s = -13, since the side length cannot be negative.  Then s = 6, and the area of the original square was 36 in^2.
