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

If you found the percent of a number and the product is greater than the number, whatvdo you know about the percent? Explain.
Ganezh [65]
The percent of said number must be over 100% because 100% is the whole value of a number

Ex:
105% of 20 is 21 because, 100% of 20 is 20 and 5% of 20 is 1
150% of 20 is 30 because, 100% of 20 is 20 and 50% of 20 is 10

25t means "25 times t" where t is some unknown number. It is a placeholder for a number.

To find what the number is, we undo what is happening to t. So we divide both sides by 25 to undo the operation "multiply by 25"

----------

25*t = 1125

25*t/25 = 1125/25 divide both sides by 25

t = 45

---------

<h3>Answer: 45</h3>

As a check, we can plug t = 45 into the equation and we should get the same value on both sides

25*t = 1125

25*45 = 1125 replace every t with 45

1125 = 1125 the answer is confirmed
