Ni : Zn: Cu = 7:2:9 =7x : 2x : 9x

7x+2x+9x = 3.8
18x=3.8
x=3.8/18=1.9/9≈0.21

Ni:   7x=7*0.21=1.47 ≈1.5 kg
Zn:  2x=2*0.21=0.42≈0.4 kg
Cu: 9x=9*0.21=1.89 ≈1.9 kg

Check 1.5+0.4+1.9 =3.8 True

200 labourers need 50 days to construct a road of 4 km long. How many labourers are needed to construct 8 km long in 80 days​
patriot [66]

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of labourers * Number of days worked = Total number of working days

Total number of working days to construct a 4km long road: 200*50=10000

Total mumber of working days to construct a 8km long road: 10000*2=20000

Labourers: 20000 ÷ 80 = 250.

250 labourers are required.

Sphere and a cylinder have the same radius and height. The volume of the cylinder is 64 meters cubed.
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

C. 128/3 meters cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is denoted by: V=\pi r^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height. We know it's equal to 64, so we can set that equal to V:

V=\pi r^2h

64=\pi r^2h

We know that the sphere and cylinder have the same height and radius. However, the "height" of a sphere is actually the same as its diameter, which is twice its radius. Then, we can replace h in the above equation with 2r:

64=\pi r^2h

64=\pi r^2*2r=2\pi r^3

\pi r^3=64/2=32

Now, the volume of a sphere is denoted by: V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3, where r is the radius. From above, we know that \pi r^3=32, so we can plug this into the equation:

V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

V=\frac{4}{3} *32=128/3

Thus, the answer is C.
