Answer:

16 lb of fresh coffee.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  x pound be the  amount of fresh coffee needed.

100 - 12 = 88%  is equivalent to 14 2/25  of roasted coffee.

By proportion  x = 14 2/25  /  88/100

= 352 / 25 * 100/88

= 35200 / 25 * 88

= 16 lb  (answer).

If you use your office computer 40 hours per week, and do not unplug the computer when it is not in use, how much carbon dioxide
dangina [55]
If you use a laptop:  9.25; a desktop with a CRT monitor:  55.51; a desktop with an LCD monitor:  46.26.

A laptop that is plugged up and turned off uses 0.001kw/hr of energy.  Each kwh of energy produces, on average, 1.39 lbs of CO2.  There are 24*7=168 hours in the week; subtract the 40 hour work week from this and we have 128 hours a week for 52 weeks a year:
0.001*128*52=6.656*1.39=9.25.

A desktop that is plugged up and turned off uses 0.004kw/hr of energy.  A CRT monitor uses 0.002 kw/hr when turned off.  This means we have:
(0.004*128*52*1.39)+(0.002*128*52*1.39)=55.51.

For a desktop and an LCD monitor, which uses 0.001 kw/hr of energy, we have:
(0.004*128*52*139)+(0.001*128*52*1.39)=46.26.

So we are suppose to Factor each expression, But I’m having trouble with that, Can someone help me?
Gre4nikov [31]
42x can be factored into 7(6x), and 49 is square, meaning it can be factored into 7 squared. I believe the factored expression would be 7(6x + 7) because 7 is the greatest common factor between both numbers.
