The jar has 138 grams of zinc.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that , In a certain chemical reaction, the ratio of zinc to copper is 3 to 16.  

A jar of the chemical contains 736 grams of copper.  

We have to find how many grams of zinc does it contain

Let "n" be the grams of zinc needed for 736 grams of copper  

Now, we know that,  

16 grams of copper ⇒ 3 grams of zinc

Then, 736 grams of copper ⇒ n grams of zinc

So, by criss cross multiplication,

n \times 16 = 3 \times 736

16n = 3 x 736

16n = 2208

n = 138

Hence, the jar has 138 grams of zinc.

Answer:

54°

Step-by-step explanation:

Your triangle is isosceles. You have been given the third angle, and you have been asked to find the measure of one of the two equal angles. We know that the internal angles of a triangle sum to 180, so 72+x+x=180 \rightarrow 2x=108 \rightarrow x = 54

In a certain​ country, the mean birth weight for boys is 3.27 ​kg, with a standard deviation of 0.51 kg. Assuming that the distr
Degger [83]

Answer:

0.066

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

For the question

mean birth weight for boys is 3.27 ​kg, with a standard deviation of 0.51 kg.

x = 2.5

Hence:

z = 2.5 - 3.27/0.51

z = -1.5098

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x ≤ 2.5) =P(x < 2.5) = P(x = 2.5) =

=0.065547

Therefore, the proportion of baby boys that are born with a low birth weight is 0.066

Solve for x<br>Please show steps thank you.

The absolute value of x is simply x and followed by the expression.

X + 1 + x + 1 <_ 2

2x + 2 <_ 2

2x <_ 0

X <_ 0

Basically all values that follow this inequality will most likely hold true.

For instance. -1.

-1 + 1 = 0
Absolute value of -2 = 2.

2 is equal to 2. This expression holds true.

X in (-oo:+oo)

((5/14)*x^7)/30 = 0

1/84*x^7 = 0 // : 1/84

x^7 = 0

x = 0

x = 0

Just #1 what’s the answer and how do I do it?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

It is B

Step-by-step explanation:

(c² - 6c) + (7c + 5)

c² is it's own term

-6c + 7c combine to 'c'

5 is it's own term.

So it is c² + c +5
