Answer:

0.32 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of weight of -copper, zinc, manganese, and nickel = 177:12:7:4

let the

weight of copper = 177x

weight of zinc = 12x

weight of manganese = 7x

weight of nickel = 4x

Total weight of this alloy in terms of x =  177x + 12x+ 7x + 4x = 300x

given weight of alloy = 8 grams

thus,

weight of this alloy in terms of x =given weight of alloy

300x = 8 grams

x = 8/300 grams =

weight of zinc = 12x = 12 * 8/300 grams = 96/300 grams = 0.32 grams

Frank purchased a new ice box having 2kg capacity. He wants it to be full with ice cubes. He measured the ice cubes to be 3.5 cm
salantis [7]

Answer:

Frank can put 5 cubes in the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

Mass = Volume × density.

1 cubic centimetre = 0.001 liter= 1 millilitre

Given that,

Frank purchase a new ice box having 2 kg capacity.

So,the mass of the cubes is 2 kg.

Each ice cubes measured 3.5 cm by 3.5 cm by 3.5 cm.

The volume of a cube is = Side ^3

The volume of a each ice cubes is =3.5^3 cm³

                                                        = 42.875 ml

The ice cubes have a density of 0.914 g/ml

The mass of each cubes are

=volume of each ice cubes × density

=42.875 ml ×0.914 g/ml

=39.18775 gram.

Let x number of ice cubes he can put in the box.

The mass of x cubes is = 39.18775x grams.

2 kg= 2,000 gram [ since 1 kg= 1000 gram]

According to the problem,

39.18775x=2,000

\Rightarrow x=\frac{2000}{39.18775}

\Rightarrow x\approx 51

Frank can put 5 cubes in the box.

Which one would it be?
Leni [432]
C is the answer.
in the original function, when x=0, y=-1
in the new function, to make y=-1, x+3=0, x=-3. From the original 0 to -3 is a shift of 3 units to the left.
