The number of kilograms of water in a human body varies directly as the mass of the body. An 87​-kg person contains 58 kg of wat
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

50 kg water.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the number of kilograms of water in a human body varies directly as the mass of the body.

We know that two directly proportional quantities are in form y=kx, where y varies directly with x and k is constant of variation.

We are told that an 87​-kg person contains 58 kg of water. We can represent this information in an equation as:

58=k\cdot 87

Let us find the constant of variation as:

\frac{58}{87}=\frac{k\cdot 87}{87}

\frac{29*2}{29*3}=k

\frac{2}{3}=k

The equation y=\frac{2}{3}x represents the relation between water (y) in a human body with respect to mass of the body (x).

To find the amount of water in a 75-kg person, we will substitute x=75 in our given equation and solve for y.

y=\frac{2}{3}(75)

y=2(25)

y=50

Therefore, there are 50 kg of water in a 75​-kg person.

How would the sum of cubes formula be used to factor x3y3 + 343? Explain the process. Do not write the factorization.
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Given : Expression -x^3y^3+343

To find : How would the sum of cubes formula be used to factor given expression? Explain the process. Do not write the factorization.

Solution :

The formula of sum of cubes is,

a^3+b^3=\left(a+b\right)\left(a^2-ab+b^2\right)

First we convert the given expression in a^3+b^3

x^3y^3+343

Apply exponent rule : a^mb^m=(ab)^m

x^3y^3=(xy)^3

Rewrite 343=7^3

Therefore, x^3y^3+343  could be written as =\left(xy\right)^3+7^3

On comparison with the formula,

a=xy , b=7

\left(xy\right)^3+7^3=(xy+7)(xy^2-xy(7)+7^2)

\left(xy\right)^3+7^3=(xy+7)((xy)^2-7xy+49)
