Answer:

O The gold will weigh 1209.6 pounds and the copper will weigh 559 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have the following information:

Gold has a density of 0.70 pounds per cubic inch and copper has a density of 8.96 grams per cubic centimeter.

Density = Mass/Volume

Volume of each metal = 1 ft³

We are to find the Mass of each component in pounds

a)Gold has a density of 0.70 pounds per cubic inch(lb/in³)

We convert the Volume from ft³ to in³

Volume = 1 ft³

1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches

Hence, the volume of Gold = 1728 in³

Mass = Density × volume

Mass of Gold = 0.70Ib/in³ × 1728 in³

= 1209.6 lb(pounds)

2)copper has a density of 8.96 grams per cubic centimeter

We convert this density in g/cm³ to ib/in³

1 ft3 = 28,316.8 cm", and 1 lb = 453.5 g.

1 gram / cubic centimetre = 0.0361 pound / cubic inch

8.96 grams / cubic centimetre =

0.0361273 pound / cubic inch × 8.96 grams / cubic centimetre

Density of copper = 0.3237005 pound / cubic inch.

Volume of copper = 1ft³ = 1728in³

Mass = Density × Volume

Mass of copper = 0.3237005 pound / cubic inch × 1728 cubic inch

= 559.354464 pounds

≈ 559 pounds

Therefore ,option O The gold will weigh 1209.6 pounds and the copper will weigh 559 pounds is the correct option

A math test is worth 100 points and has 38 problems. Each problem is worth either 5 points or 2 points. How many problems of eac
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

<em><u>5</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>points</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>question</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>8</u></em>

<em><u>and</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>2</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>po</u></em><em><u>ints</u></em><em><u> questions</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>3</u></em><em><u>0</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>!</u></em><em><u>!</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of 5 points questions be x and number of the 2 points questions be y !!

Given :- The paper has 38 problems

i.e,

number of 5 points Q + number of 2point Q = 38

=> x + y = 38

=> x = 38 - y .... ( i )

And , The test worth 100 pts :-

There must be x number of Questions which carry 5 points and there must y number of questions which carries 2 points ( as assume above )

so, 5x + 2y = 100 .... ( ii )

Putting value of the x in ( ii )

5 ( 38 - y ) + 2y = 100

190 - 5y + 2y = 100

- 3y = - 90

y = 30

Putting value of y in ( i )

x = 38 - y

x = 38 - 30

x = 8

So, the Number of 5points Question is

x = 8

and , the number of 2 points questions is y = 30 !!
