Answer:

$1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Amy, Beth and Catherine bought the same amount of apples.

let s say this is x

Amy has x amount of apples

Beth has x amount of apples

Catherine has x amount of apples

Catherine gave same amount of apples to Amy and Beth

let s say this is y

Amy has x + y amount of apples

Beth has x + y amount of apples

Catherine has x - 2y amount of apples

Catherine has 15 less than Amy so x-2y=x+y-15

Catherine has 15 less than Beth so x-2y=x+y-15

so finally, it comes x-2y=x+y-15

so 3y=15 and then y =5

Catherine gave 5 lb to Amy and 5lb to Beth

Catherine receives $12.5 from both of them

it means that 10lb costs $12.5 so the price for each lb is $1.25

thanks

No hablo expanol

7(z+2)-3z=44
7z+14-3z=44
7z-3z+14=44
4z+14=44
-14        -14
4z+14-14=44-14
4z+0=30
4z=30
1/4  1/4
(4z)/4=30/4
(4/4)z=15/2

The hydrogen ion concentration (h+) in a certain cleaning compound is (h+)=3.2x10^-11 use the formula ph=-log(h+) to find the pH
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The pH of the clean compound is approximately 10.495.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the cleaning ion concentration of the cleaning compound is [H^{+}] = 3.2\times 10^{-11}, then the pH, no unit, of the compound is:

pH = -\log_{10} [H^{+}]  (1)

pH = -\log_{10} (3.2\times 10^{-11})

pH = -\log_{10} 3.2 - \log_{10} (10^{-11})

pH = -\log_{10} \frac{32}{10} +11

pH = -\log_{10} 32 + \log_{10} 10 + 11

pH = -\log_{10} 32 +12

pH \approx 10.495

The pH of the clean compound is approximately 10.495.
