In the video, the water level was 15 milliliters before adding the chain, and 20 milliliters after adding the chain. When I weig

hed the chain, its mass was 76.3 grams.
I believe the chain is solid metal (not gold plated), but is probably a blend of gold and other metals. I looked up that gold has a density of 19.3 g/ml, while the other metals like silver and copper usually blended with gold have a combined density of about 9.7 g/ml.

Determine what percentage of the chain is gold, by mass, to at least 1 decimal place?

Answer:39.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First find the density of your chain

Density = mass / volume

Volume = displaced water volume

                     = Volume of Final level of water - initial level of water

                    = 20 ml - 15 ml = 5 ml

Mass = 66.7 g

Density = 66.7g / 5 ml = 13.34 g/ml

2. Second, write the denisty of the chain as the weighted average of the densities of the other metals:

Mass of gold × density of gold + mass of other metals × density of other metals, all divided by the mass of the chain.

Calling x the amount of gold, then the amount of other metals is 66.7 - x:

       

      

     

Then, there are 26.47 grams of gold in 66.7 grams of chain, which yields a percentage of:

(26.47 / 66.7) × 100 = 39.7%1. First find the density of your chain

Density = mass / volume

Volume = displaced water volume

                     = Volume of Final level of water - initial level of water

                    = 20 ml - 15 ml = 5 ml

Mass = 66.7 g

Density = 66.7g / 5 ml = 13.34 g/ml

2. Second, write the denisty of the chain as the weighted average of the densities of the other metals:

Mass of gold × density of gold + mass of other metals × density of other metals, all divided by the mass of the chain.

Calling x the amount of gold, then the amount of other metals is 66.7 - x:

       

      

     

Then, there are 26.47 grams of gold in 66.7 grams of chain, which yields a percentage of:

(26.47 / 66.7) × 100 = 39.7%

Ryan owns 3/8 of a florist shop worth 76,000. what is value of ryan's share of the business ?
Roman55 [17]
To find 3/8 of 76,000, multiply the two numbers.

3/8*76000/1= 228000/8

228000/8= 28500

Final answer: $28,500

ch4aika [34]

The probabilities that the at least one tie is too tight is 0.878 and more than two ties are too tight is 0.323 and none are too tight is 0.122 and at least 18 are NOT too tight is 0.67.

According to the statement

We have given that the in a survey showing that the approximately 20% of all businessmen who wear ties wear them so tightly that they actually reduce blood flow to the brain.

And we have to find the probability on the some given conditions.

So, For this purpose, we know that the

The probability is the measure of the likelihood of an event to happen. It measures the certainty of the event.

Now,

A. Here n = 20, P = 0.1, And  X ≥ 1. Then

The probability that at least one tie is too tight P(≥ 1) = 1 - P(0)

P(≥ 1) = 1 - 0.12

P(≥ 1) = 0.878.

And

B. Here P(≤2) = 0.67 Then

The probability that more than two ties are too tight P(≥ 3) = 1 - P(≤2)

P(≥ 3) = 1 - 0.67

P(≥ 3) = 0.323

And

C. The probability that none are too tight P(0) = 0.122.

And

D. Here n =20, P = 0.1 and X≤2

The probability that at least 18 are NOT too tight P(X≤2) = 0.67.

So, The probabilities that the at least one tie is too tight is 0.878 and more than two ties are too tight is 0.323 and none are too tight is 0.122 and at least 18 are NOT too tight is 0.67.
