Answer:
2.5% and 2.5 · 10^-3, 0.25, 2/5, √5
Step-by-step explanation:
0.25, 2/5, 2.5 · 10^-3, 2.5%, √5
Now let's list them all in the same form, why not decimals.
0.25 = 0.25
2/5 = 4/10 = 40/100 = 0.4
2.5 · 10^-3 = 2.5 · 0.01 = 0.025
2.5% = 0.025
√5 ≅ 2.236
Note that when x=0, y=-6, so d cannot be right. Note that 2 and -1.5 are solutions. The only answer choice that has both as zeroes is a.
Answer:
33%
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the weight of the mixture to be 100g**, then the weight of ryegrass in the mixture would be 30g.
Also, assume the weight mixture X used in the mixture is Xg, then the weight of mixture Y used in the mixture would be (100-X)g.
So we can now equate the parts of the ryegrass in the mixture as:
0.4X + 0.25(100-X) = 30
<=> 0.4X + 25 - 0.25X = 30
<=> 0.15X = 5
<=> X = 5/0.15 = 500/15 = 100/3
So the weight of mixture X as a percentage of the weight of the mixture
= (weight of X/weight of mixture) * 100%
= (100/3)/100 * 100%
= 33%
This problem has infinitly many solutions
