Answer:

The question is incomplete, below is the complete question:

The volume of a flask has been determined to be 26.918 mL, and the mass of the flask has been determined to be 32.634g. The student then emptied the flask and dried it once again. To the empty flask, he added pieces of metal until the flask was about half full. He weighed the stoppered flask containing the metal and found that its mass was 100.356g. Next, he filled the flask containing the metal with water, stoppered it, reweighed it and obtained a total mass of 121.860g.

a.) Find the mass of the metal in the flask. (show work)

b.) Find the mass of water in the flask. (show work)

c.) Find the volume of water in the flask. (show work)

d.) Find the volume of metal in the flask (show work)

e.) Find the density of the metal. (show work)

Answers:

a.  mass of metal in the flask = 67.722g

b. mass of water in the flask = 21.504g

c. volume of water in the flask = 21.562mL

d.) volume of metal in the flask = 5.356mL

e.) density of the metal = 12.644g/mL

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) mass of metal in the flask = (mass of flask + metal) - mass of empty flask

= 100.356 - 32.634 = 67.722g

b.) mass of water in the flask = (mass of flask when filled with metal and water) - (mass of flask when filled with metal alone)

= 121.860 - 100.356 = 21.504g

c. volume of the water in the flask :

in order to calculate the volume of water in the flask, the density formula is used as follows:

density = mass ÷ volume

volume = mass ÷ density.

where:

Density of water = 0.9973 g/mL

Mass of water as calculated above = 21.504g

∴ volume of water = 21.504 ÷ 0.9973 = 21.562mL

d.) volume of the metal in the flask:

Next, to calculate the volume of the metal in the flask:

volume of flask = volume of metal + volume of water

∴ volume of metal = volume of flask - volume of water

where:

volume of flask = 26.918mL (given)

volume of water = 21.562mL (calculated above)

∴ volume of metal = 26.918 - 21.562 = 5.356mL

e.) density of the metal:

Density = mass ÷ volume

where:

mass of metal = 67.722g ; volume of metal = 5.356mL

∴ Density of metal = 67.722 ÷ 5.356 = 12.644g/mL

A man has 10 more dimes than quarters. he has $2.75 how many of each coin does he have?
Anton [14]
5 quarters, 15 dimes

q + 10 = d
0.25q + 0.1d = 2.75

0.25q + 0.1(q + 10) = 2.75
0.25q + 0.1q + 1 = 2.75
0.35q = 1.75
q = 5

Check:

0.25(5)+ 0.1(15)= 2.75
1.25 + 1.5 = 2.75
2.75 = 2.75 :)

Dennis_Churaev [7]
  • <em>Answer:</em>

<em>x = - 2.5</em>

  • <em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em>Hi there !</em>

<em>4 - (2x + 4) = 5</em>

<em>4 - 2x - 4 = 5</em>

<em>- 2x = 5</em>

<em>2x = - 5</em>

<em>x = - 5 : 2</em>

<em>x = - 2.5</em>

<em>Good luck !</em>

inysia [295]

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem 1:

Multiply Equation 1 by 4, keep Equation 2 the same.

x+y=8, multiply each term by 4:

4*x=4x, 4*y=4y, 8*4=32

so, the equivalent system is: 4x+4y=32 and x-y=2

Solve the system of equations:

x-y=2 becomes x=y+2

plug into 4x+4y=32 to solve for y

4(y+2)+4y=32---> 4y+8+4y=32--->8y=24---> y=3

Plug into x-y=2---> x-3=2---> x=5

Problem 1 Answer:

Equivalent system: 4x+4y=32, x-y=2; solution: x=5, y=3

Problem 2:

Keep Equation 1 the same. Add 1 and 2.

To add an equation, add the left sides together, and then the rights.

so: x+y=8 + x-y=2 gives us: 2x=10

solve for x ---> 2x/2=10/2--->x=5

plug x into x+y=8--->5+y=8--->y=3

Problem 2 answer:

Equivalent system: x+y=8, 2x=10; solution:x=5, y=3

Problem 3:

Subtract Equation 2 from 1, and keep 2 the same.

To subtract an equation, subtract the left sides, then the rights. We are subtracting 1<em> from </em>2, so its 2-1.

x-y=2 - x+y=8 gives us: -2y=-6

Solve for y by dividing by -2-->-2y/-2=-6/-2---> y=3

Plug into x-y=2---> x-3=2---> x=5

Problem 3 answer:

Equivalent system: -2y=-6, x-y=2; solution: x=5, y=3

Problem 4:

Multiply the sum of Equation 1 and 2 by a factor of 3. Keep equation 2 the same.

First we add 1 and 2: (we did this earlier) ---> 2x=10 ---> now we multiply it all by 3---> 2x*(3)=10*(3)---> this gives us: 6x=30---> now divide by 6 to solve for x: 6x/6=30/6 gives us: x=5

Now, solve for y by plugging x into equation 2: x-y=2---> 5-y=2--->y=3

Problem 4 answer:

Equivalent system: 6x=30, x-y=2; solution: x=5, y=3

______

Quick Tip: One thing inherent of Equivalent systems is that they have the same set of solutions. Thus, we know the systems are equivalent when they have the same set of solutions for x and y. Moreover, you don't need to solve every time after you attempt to find an equivalent system, instead, just plug in the values found in problem 1 to each new set of equations to test if they are equivalent.

If we find x=5 and y=3 for x+y=8 and x-y=2, then all we have to do is plug them in to 6x=30 and -2y=-6 to see if they are equivalent.

6(5)=30 ---> true

-2(3)=-6 ---> true

Each statement describes a transformation of the graph of y = x2. Which statement correctly describes the graph of y = (x + 4)2
alina1380 [7]
  • Vertex Form: y=(x-h)^2+k , with (h,k) as the vertex.

So the new equation is in vertex form. And looking at this equation, we see the vertex as (-4,-7) <em>(Remember that y = (x + 4)^2 - 7 can be also written as y = (x - (-4))^2 - 7).</em>

Since negative x-coordinates go to the left on the x-axis and negative y-coordinates go down on the y-axis, <u>your answer is going to be C. It is the graph of y = x^2 translated 7 units down and 4 units to the left.</u>
