A pot full of water weighs 2 kg (the total combined weight of the pot and the water). If we spill out 20% of the water, the weig

ht of the pot and water together is 88% of the original weight. What is the weight of the empty pot in kg. Express your answer as a common fraction in lowest terms.

the empty pot is 0.8 kg or 4/5 kg. just do the weight lost times five and you get the answer. (times five because 1/5th of the water was lost. so to get the original weight of the water you multiply by the divisor (5)). Then you subtracts 1.2 from 2 and your and is 0.8 or 4/5ths

Could someone explain me question 9 thank you

R1 / r2 = sqrt(m2)  / sqrt(m1)  Notice the numbering system. If the 2 is on the denominator for the r, then it will be in the numerator for the m. You must substitute carefully.

r1 / r2 = sqrt(30) / sqrt(12) 
r1 / r2 = sqrt(2)*sqrt(3)(sqrt(5) / sqrt(3) sqrt(4) but sqrt(4) = 2.

ri / r2 = sqrt(2)* sqrt(3)*sqrt(5) / sqrt(3) * 2 Now you can cancel out sqrt(3)
r1 / r2 = sqrt(2)*sqrt(5) / 2

r1 / r2 = sqrt(10)/2 <<<< answer
B <<< answer. Notice that they put sqrt(2) and sqrt(5) together again.

Which number has only two factors 12, 14, 15, 17
Verdich [7]

Answer:

  17

Step-by-step explanation:

17 is prime, so has only 1 and itself as (positive integer) divisors.

12 has positive divisors 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

14 has positive divisors 1, 2, 7, 14

15 has positive divisors 1, 3, 5, 15

___

<em>Comment on "factors"</em>

Sometimes, we make a distinction between (prime) factors and divisors. A factor is often considered to be a prime number that is a divisor, so 1 is not included. (Here, that would mean 14 and 15 have two factors, but 17 does not.) A divisor is considered to be any integer that gives the number when multiplied by another integer. When factoring polynomials, we often also include negative integers among the divisors of the numbers we're concerned with.
