Answer:

4.9kg of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Dry basis is the percentage ratio of moisture amount to amount of dry product which is 175%

Ratio of moisture amount to dry product = 175 : 100

Mass of food product = 10kg

Amount of moisture in food product = 175/175+100 × 10kg = 175/275 × 10kg = 6.4kg

Wet basis is the percentage ratio of the moisture amount to the total weight of material which is 15%

Ratio of moisture amount to total weight of material is 15 : 100

Amount of moisture in food product = 15/100 × 10kg = 1.5kg

Amount of water contained in the final product = 1.5kg

Amount of other components in the food product = 10kg - 6.4kg = 3.6kg

Total amount = 1.5kg + 3.6kg = 5.1kg

% of water = 1.5kg/5.1kg × 100 = 29%

Tim earns $31 after 2 hours, $46.5 after three hours, and $62 after four hours. Write an equation that represents the amount of
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

y = $15.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Tim earns $31 after 2 hours

$46.5 earns after 3 hours,

And, $62 earns after four hours

So first determine the each hour earnings i.e.

= $31 ÷ 2

= $15.5

In two hours it would be $31 and so on

So here the equation would be

y = $15.5x

Here

y = money amount

x = number of hours

Find the value of x for the right triangle. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth
Anna007 [38]

Answer:38.56

Step-by-step explanation:

tan35=opposite ➗ adjacent

0.7002=27 ➗ x

Cross multiplying we get

0.7002(x)=27

Divide both sides by 0.7002

0.7002x ➗ 0.7002=27 ➗ 0.7002

x=38.56041131

x=38.56 nearest hundredth
