Marcia dissolved 1 kg of salt in 3 litres of water
Bobby dissolved 2 pounds of salt in 7 pints of water
We know that
1 litre = 2.11 pints
We also know that
1 pound = 0.4535 kg
Now if we take the case of Bobby, and convert the pound to kg then
1 pound = 0.4535 kg
2 pounds = (0.4535 * 2) kg
 <span>                 = 0.907 kg</span> <span>               
                 = 0.91 kg</span>
Bobby dissolved the salt in 7 pints of water
We know
2.11 pints = 1 litre
Then
7 pints = (7/2.11) litre
 <span>            = 3.32 litres</span>
So we now see that Bobby has dissolved 0.91 kg of salt in 3.32 litres of water
Marcia dissolved 1 kg of salt in 3 litres of water.
So Marcia has made a more concentrated solution since she has dissolved more salt in less amount of water whereas Bobby has dissolved less amount of salt in more water.

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

6 days

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we make common denominators:

3 *2  =  6

_  ->     _

4 *2  =  8

and we get 6/8

6/8 divided by 1/8 will be 6 days

find the coordinates of the points D ( 4, -4 ) and E ( 5, -5 ) after the transformation ( x; y ) ( x + 3, y -5
postnew [5]

Answer:

second option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rule

(x, y ) → (x + 3, y - 5)

This means add 3 to the original x- coordinate and subtract 5 from the original y- coordinate, that is

D(4, - 4 ) → D'(4 + 3, - 4 - 5 ) → D'(7, - 9 )

E(5, - 5 ) → E'(5 + 3, - 5 - 5 ) → E'(8, - 10 )

Choose the inverse of y = x2 - 10x.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

=Y2-10Y

We move all terms to the left:

-(Y2-10Y)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-(+Y^2-10Y)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-Y^2+10Y=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-1Y^2+10Y=0

a = -1; b = 10; c = 0;

Δ = b2-4ac

Δ = 102-4·(-1)·0

Δ = 100

The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions

We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:

Y1=−b−Δ√2aY2=−b+Δ√2a

Δ‾‾√=100‾‾‾‾√=10

Y1=−b−Δ√2a=−(10)−102∗−1=−20−2=+10

Y2=−b+Δ√2a=−(10)+102∗−1=0−2=0
