Let's convert the units first.

1.08 kg * (1000 g)/(1 kg) = 1008 g

density = mass/volume

density = 1008 g / 400 cm^3

density = 2.52 g/cm^3

Answer: 2.52 g/cm^3

Answer:

Density of the rock is 2.7 grams per cubic centimeter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jeremy wants to know the density of a rock in grams per cubic centimeter.

The rock has mass M = 1.08 kilograms

Since 1 kilogram = 1000 grams

Therefore 1.08 kilograms = 1.08×1000 = 1080 grams

Volume of the rock is given as V = 400 cubic centimeters

Now we know the formula of Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{M}{V}=\frac{1080}{400}=2.7$

Therefore density of the rock is 2.7 grams per cubic centimeter.

63 Jelly Beans

Step-by-step explanation:

The unknown is the number of jelly beans originally in the bag or x

First he had x jelly beans

The he ate one-third of them

$\frac{1}{3}x$

He then ate 16 more jelly beans

$\frac{1}{3}x+16$

This was equal to 37 jelly beans

$\frac{1}{3}x+16=37$

This is the equation

Now solve for x

Subtract 16 from both sides

$\frac{1}{3}x=21$

Multiply both sides by 3

$x=63$

I forgot how to do this

adoni [48]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{1}}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf{ \frac{1}{2} \times 2}$

Multiply the numerators for the numerator and multiply the denominators for its denominator and reduce the fraction obtained after multiplication into lowest term.

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{1 \times 2}{2 \times 1} }}$

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{2}{2} }}$

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{1}}$

Or, You can simply reduce the fraction with 2, which results to 1.

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

A ferry departs from a port along the Sands River at 10:00 am. The ferry travels at a speed of 15 mph in still water and returns

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Speed of river's current = 5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'd' be the distance covered

Let x be the speed of the rivers current

Speed upstream = 15-x

speed downstream = 15+x

Time = distance / speed

time upstream = $\frac{d}{15-x}$

time downstream = $\frac{d}{15+x}$

the ferry trip upstream takes twice as long as its return trip downstream

$\frac{d}{15-x}$ = $\frac{2d}{15+x}$

divide both sides by d

$\frac{1}{15-x}$ = $\frac{2}{15+x}$

cross multiply

$15+x= 2(15-x)$

$15+x= 30-2x$

Add 2x on both sideds

$15+3x= 30$

subtract 15 from both sides and divide by 3

$3x=15$

x=5

Speed of river's current = 5 mph
