Answer:

option (c) 9 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided:

Amount of copper that must be contained in the feed = 4 mg per kilogram

Amount of dry matter being consumed by the pig = 5 pounds

Now,

1 pound = 0.45 kilograms

thus,

5 pounds = 0.45 × 5 = 2.25 kilograms

thus,

amount of dry matter being consumed by the pig = 2.25 kg

therefore,

the amount of copper consumed = 4 mg per kilogram × 2.25 kg

or

the amount of copper consumed = 9 mg

Hence,

the correct answer is option (c) 9 mg

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number 5 is L because you have 18 coins but you only want to find the probability of the pennies. So take 3/18 and simplify to 1/6 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 3.

Number 6 can be (-6x - 3), just use the distributive property on the original expression.
