A King in ancient times agreed to reward the inventor of chess with one grain of wheat on the first of the 64 squares of a chess

maxonik [38]

Answer:

Total weight of the wheat placed on 45th square will be = $1.26\times 10^{6}tons$

Step-by-step explanation:

King rewarded the inventor of chess by giving grain of wheat on every square of the chess board. He places one grain of wheat on first square, 2 on second, 4 on 3rd, 8 on 4th and so on.

In fact he places grains of wheat in a progression S = 1, 2, 4, 8, 16.........n terms where value of n is 64.

We can rewrite the progression as S = 2°, 2, 2², 2³,.........n terms (n = 64)

In a geometric progression we know the nth term = $a(r^{n-1})$

where a = first term of the series, r = common ratio, n = number of terms

Now we have to calculate the weight of all wheat placed on 45th square.

So we will put the values in the given formula 45th term =

$1\times (2^{45-1})$ = $2^{44}$ = $1.76\times 10^{13}$

Then the weight of wheat will be = $2.51\times 10^{9}pounds$ = $1.26\times 10^{6}tons$

Of 560 marbles in a bag, 65% are red and the rest are blue. After 28 red marbles are replaced with blue ones, how many blue marb

jonny [76]

Answer: The answer is 400 blue marbles.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that there are 560 marbles in a bag, out of which 65% are red and rest are blue.

So, number of red marbles is

$n_r=65\%\times 560=\dfrac{65}{100}\times 560=364,$

and number of blue marbles is

$n_b=560-364=196.$

Now, if 28 red marbles are replaced by blue marbles, the the new number of red and blue marbles will be

$n_r^\prime=364-28=336~~~\textup{and}~~~n_b^\prime=196+28=224.$

Now, to get 65% of the marbles blue, we need to add some more blue marbles to the bag. Let 'x' number of blue marbles are added to the bag, then

$65\%\times (560+x)=224+x\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{65}{100}\times (560+x)=224+x\\\\\Rightarrow 13(560+x)=20(224+x)\\\\\Rightarrow 7280+13x=4480+20x\\\\\Rightarrow 7x=2800\\\\\Rightarrow x=400.$

Thus, 400 blue marbles need to be added to the bag.

If the rate of decrease for the partial pressure of N2H4 in a closed reaction vessel is 76 torr/h , what is the rate of change f

fiasKO [112]

The reaction is missing and it's ;

N2H4 + H2 ---> 2NH3

It asks for the total pressure too.

Answer:

A) Rate of change for NH3 = 152 torr/h

B) The total pressure in the vessel will remain the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

N2H4 + H2 ---> 2NH3

1 mole of N2H4 yields 2 moles of NH3.

From the question, the rate given for N2H4 is 76 torr/h.

Thus, The rate of change for NH3 will be = 2 x 76 = 152 torr/h

Now, on the reaction side, 1 mole of N2H4 reacts with 1 mole of H2. So we have 2 moles on the left hand side.

While on the product side, 2 moles of NH3 are produced.

So the total pressure will remain the same because for every 2 moles on the reaction side, 2 moles are gotten on the product side.

Weapon of math destruction trig. day 1

The questions are illustrations of trigonometry ratios and right triangles

The value of x is 11.8310
The tree is 23.3154 feet tall
The depth of the sub is 376.7770 meters

Trigonometry ratio

Trigonometry ratios are very useful in determining the measure of angles, and the side lengths of a right triangle.

<h3>Question 1</h3>

The value of x is calculated using the following sine trigonometry ratio

$\sin(25) =\frac{5}{x}$

Make x the subject

$x =\frac{5}{\sin(25)}$

This gives

$x =11.8310$

Hence, the value of x is 11.8310

<h3>Question 2</h3>

This question is illustrated by the first diagram in the attached figure

The height (h) of the tree is calculated using the following tangent trigonometry ratio

$\tan(25) =\frac{h}{50}$

Make h the subject

$h = 50 \times \tan(25)$

This gives

$h = 23.3154$

Hence, the tree is 23.3154 feet tall

<h3>Question 3</h3>

This question is illustrated by the second diagram in the attached figure

The depth (h) of the sub is calculated using the following tangent trigonometry ratio

$\tan(37) =\frac{h}{500}$

Make h the subject

$h = 500 \times \tan(37)$

This gives

$h = 376.7770$

Hence, the depth of the sub is 376.7770 meters

The price of a stock increased 12 cent Monday morning. On Monday afternoon, the price of the stock decreased 56 cent. On Tuesday

jeyben [28]

Ok, were starting at when the stock increased first which is 12 cents on monday. to find your answer your going to need to add all of the increased cents first; then subtract.

12 + 14 = 26

So we have 26 cents, now we subtract the 56.

26 - 56 = -30

now we have -30. now we find out how far away on the number line it is from 12. your answer would be 42.

now for your answer, (i did all of that for other people who had the same question but different answer)

your answer would be 112 cents (which is option B)
