Let,

Mass of the steel be 108x
Mass of the copper be 7x
Then, Total mass = 108x + 7x = 115x

Given,

Total mass of the coin = 230 mg

That means,

⇛ Total mass of the coin = 230 mg

⇛ 115x = 230 mg

⇛ x = 230 mg/115

⇛ x = 2 mg

Then,

Mass of the steel = 108(2) = 216 mg
Mass of the copper = 7(2) = 14 mg

☁️ ANSWER - 14 mg (Mass of copper)

Which equation below would be parallel to the line y= 2x+5 and pass through the point (3,1)

ki77a [65]

The answer is A, first the question said parallel so it should have same gradient and the gradient of the equation is 2 So eliminate D and bring (3,1) in each of the last three equation, and you will find just A conformed

Evaluate \dfrac{3}{2}+(-k)+(-2)

Dimas [21]

As I understand, we need to evaluate the given rational expression, we will get that the evaluated expression is equal to - 1/10

<h3>Evaluating expressions:</h3>

Evaluating an expression just means that we need to replace the variable in the expression for a given value, here we have the expression:

$\frac{3}{2} + (-k) + (-2)$

And we want to evaluate it in:

$k = -\frac{2}{5}$

So we just need to replace k by that value in the above expression, we will get:

$\frac{3}{2} + (-(-\frac{2}{5} )) + (-2)$

Now we can just solve this:

$\frac{3}{2} + (-(-\frac{2}{5} )) + (-2)\\\\\frac{3}{2} + \frac{2}{5} + (-2)\\\\\frac{15}{10} + \frac{4}{10} + (-2) = \frac{19}{10} - \frac{20}{10}= -\frac{1}{10}$
