We are given ratio nickel to zinc to copper = 2:7:9.
From this ratio we can see that <em>ratio of nickel to zinc is 2:7</em>.
Let us assume number of pounds of nickel have to be used to create alloy that contains 4.9 lb of zinc is x pounds.
So, we can setup a proportion as :
x : 4.9 = 2:7
Or
On cross multiplication, we get
7x= 4.9× 2
7x = 9.8
Dividing both sides by 7, we get
x = 1.4.
<h3>Therefore, 1.4 pounds of nickel have to be used to create alloy that contains 4.9 lb of zinc.</h3><h3 />
A pair of jeans = $40.00
There is a 6.5% sales tax.
First change the % into a decimal by moving the decimal point two spaces to the left.
0.065
Multiply that by 40.00 to find out how much the tax is.
40 × 0.065 = 2.6
Now add the tax to the initial price.
40.00 + 2.6 = 42.60
The total cost is $42.60.
Answer: The number of calories increased by 20%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The doctor recommended that Mike increase the number of calories he burns working out from 1,500 to 1,800.
Previous number of calories he used to burn = 1,500
Increase in calories = 1800-1500=300
Now , the percent increase in calories = 
Hence , the number of calories increased by 20%.

6Step-by-step explanation:
Sin θ = 2 / 7
tan θ > 0
cos θ = ?
sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse
tan θ = opposite / adjacent
cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse
short leg = opposite = 2
hypotenuse = 7
long leg = adjacent = ?
adjacent = √(7² - 2²)
adjacent = √(49 - 4)
adjacent = √45
adjacent = √9 * 5
adjacent = 3 √5
cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos θ = 3√5 / 7
