Answer:

No; 0.075(15 + s) = 3; s = 25 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

No, but <em>you are close</em>.

The mass of copper in your 800 grade silver is

Mass = 0.20 × 15  = 3 oz

You are adding s oz of silver so that 7.5 % of the total mass is still 3 oz of copper.

The equation becomes

0.075(15 + s) = 3      Divide both sides by 0.075

           15 + s = 40     Subtract 15 from each side

                  s = 25 oz

You add 25 oz of silver to your 800 grade alloy to get sterling .

<em>Check: </em>

0.075(15 + 25) = 3

    0.075 × 40 = 3

                    3 = 3

Let f(x)=-4x+7 and g(x)=10x-6. Find f(g(x))
olga55 [171]
f(x) = -4x+7  \\ g(x) = 10x-6

To find f(g(x)), insert the equation of g(x) into the x value for f(x)

f(g(x)) = -4(10x-6)+7 \\ f(g(x)) = -40x + 24 +7 \\ f(g(x)) = -40x + 31
