Answer:
9.4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
5^2+8^2 = c^2
25 +64 = c^2
89 = c^2
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(89) = sqrt(c^2)
9.433981132 = c
To the nearest tenth
9.4
150 - s <== ur expression
when s = 27.13
150 - 27.13 = 122.87
when s = 55.14
150 - 55.14 = 94.86
<span>∵ There is a proportional relationship between the mass and the volume of the places of metal.
Let volume = v and mass = m
So, the relation between volume and mass will take the form:
v = km
where k is constant and can be calculated as follow:
when m = </span><span>34.932 , and v = 4.1 ⇒⇒⇒ k = v/m = 0.117371
</span>when m = 47.712<span> , and v = 5.6 ⇒⇒⇒ k = v/m = </span>0.117371
when m = 61.344 , and v = 7.2 ⇒⇒⇒ k = v/m = <span>0.117371
when m = </span>99.684 , and v = 11.7 ⇒⇒⇒ k = v/m = <span>0.117371
∴ v = 0.117371 m
</span>
For v =<span>15.3
∴ m = v/k = 15.3/0.117371 = 130.356 </span><span>gram
</span>The mass of a piece of this metal that has a volume of 15.3 cubic centimeters ≈ 130.4 gram (<span>round to the nearest tenth</span>)
I think the answer is maybe A?
Yes it is, if you look on a number line, the -34 is farther left than the -9
