Answer:

The cost of wasted nitric acid is $187.02

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is given that specific gravity of Nitric Acid is 1.42 Thus the density of nitric acid is

\rho _{acid}=S.G\times \rho _{water}\\\\\\\rho_{acid}=1.42\times 1\frac{g}{cm^3}\\\\\rho_{acid}=1.42g/cm^3

Now from the basic relation of mass volume and density we have

\rho =\frac{Mass}{Volume}\\\\\therefore Volume=\frac{Mass}{\rho }

Since the mass of the nitric acid is given to be 5.112 kg = 5112 grams

Thus the volume of nitric acid is

Volume=\frac{5112}{1.42}=3600cm^3

Now we know that 1000 cubic centimeters euals 1 litrer

Thus the calculated volume in liters is

V_{liters}=\frac{3600}{1000}=3.6Liters

Thus the cost of acid spilled  equals

Cost=3.6\times 51.95=187.02

Question 4(Multiple Choice Worth 1 points) (07.04 LC) Factor completely 49x2 − 9. (7x + 3)(7x − 3) (7x + 3)(x − 3) (7x − 3)(7x −
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We take a look at this expression: 49x^2-9 and notice that both terms are square numbers. 49x^2=(7x)^2 and 9=3^2.

There is a specific formula that I highly recommend you memorize involving differences of squares. It states that given the difference of squares a^2-b^2, it can always be factored into (a+b)(a-b).

Here, we can apply that. In this case, a = 7x and b = 3. So:

49x^2-9=(7x)^2-3^2=(7x+3)(7x-3)

Thus, the answer is A.

Hope this helps!

How do you graph linear equation x+y=4
Sliva [168]

Answer:

See attached picture.

Step-by-step explanation:

To graph the linear equation, convert x+y=4 into y= -x+4. This means that y= mx+b is y=-x+4. So m = -1 and b =4.

Start with b by finding 4 on the y-axis. Plot a point. Then from this point move down 1 unit and 1 unit to the right to (1,3). Plot this point. Connect the points.

What is the difference between the areas of a circular table with diameter 6ft and a circular table with diameter 8 ft ? Round y
miskamm [114]

Answer:

22 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a table with diameter 6 ft

A = pi r^2 = pi (6/2) ^2 = pi 3^2 = 9pi

The area of a table with diameter 8 ft

A = pi r^2 = pi (8/2) ^2 = pi 4^2 = 16pi

Subtract 16pi-9pi = 7pi

Using 3.14 for pi

7 * 3.14

21.98 ft^2

To the nearest square foot

22 ft^2
