Harriet works at the Mint, where new coins are made. Old and fake coins are also destroyed there. Harriet has 10 bags of $1 coin

s. All 10 bags contain the same number of coins. Harriet knows that nine bags contain only good coins and that one bag contains only fake coins. The fake coins are all about 0.5 gram short. Harriet has forgotten which bag contains the fake coins.
Harriet has a set of scales for weighing like the ones in the illustration. What is the lowest number of times she can weigh bags on the scales in order to find the bag of fake coins?

Answer:

3 times

Step-by-step explanation:

She would have to weigh the fake coins and another bag of real coins to spot a difference, and then she would need to check another bag to see which was correct. Maybe thats right.

Can you help me Question 2
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

If Greg graduates in 4 years (8 semesters) he will owe 12000Dhs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each semester Greg will owe 2,500Dhs.

2,500•8 semesters = 20,000

But Greg saved 8,000Dhs before he started college.

20,000-8,000= 12,000

So, Greg will owe 12,000Dhs

The density of salt is 80 pounds per cubic foot (lb/ft3). 1 pound (lb) is approximately 0.4536 kilogram (kg). 1 cubic foot (ft3)
Leto [7]

Answer: Density = 1,282.26 kg/m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Density =  80 lb/ft^3

We know that:

1lb = 0.4536 kg.

1ft^3 = 0.0283 m^3

then we can write:

1 = (0.4536kg)/(0.0283 m^3)*(1ft^3/lb)

we can multiply our equation by this, and it wont be affected, then we have:

Density = 80 lb/ft^3 = 80 lb/ft^3 (0.4536kg)/(0.0283 m^3)*(1ft^3/lb)

Density = 1,282.26 kg/m^3
