Answer:

The amount of flour added to each box was 0.64 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the amount of flour added to each box in kg

Remember that

1 kg=1,000 g

8,600 g=8,600/1,000=8.6 kg

we know that

The linear equation that represent this situation is

(8.6+x)=4(1.67+x)

Solve for x

8.6+x=6.68+4x

4x-x=8.6-6.68

3x=1.92

x=0.64 kg

A vertical cylinder is leaking water at a rate of 4m3/sec. If the cylinder has a height of 10m and a radius of 2m, at what rate

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Therefore the rate change of height is $\frac{1}{\pi}$ m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a vertical cylinder is leaking water at rate of 4 m³/s.

It means the rate change of volume is 4 m³/s.

$\frac{dV}{dt}=4 \ m^3/s$

The radius of the cylinder remains constant with respect to time, but the height of the water label changes with respect to time.

The height of the cylinder be h(say).

The volume of a cylinder is $V=\pi r^2 h$

$=( \pi \times 2^2\times h)\ m^3$

$\therefore V= 4\pi h$

Differentiating with respect to t.

$\frac{dV}{dt}=4\pi \frac{dh}{dt}$

Putting the value $\frac{dV}{dt}$

$\Rightarrow 4\pi \frac{dh}{dt}=4$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{4}{4\pi}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{1}{\pi}$

The rate change of height does not depend on the height.

Therefore the rate change of height is $\frac{1}{\pi}$ m/s.

$6.89 per pound for salmon OR $3.50 for 8 ounces (half a pound) of salmon

Nastasia [14]

Answer: 6.89 per pound (assuming you meant which is the better deal)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 16 ounces in a pound so you can multiply, 3.5 x 2 (since it is 3.5 for 8 ounces) to get 7. Therefore $6.89 for a pound is cheaper.
