Answer:

300 chapter books

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total books = 500

Ratio given = 2:3

So they are divided into 5 parts

Each part contains = 500/5 books = 100 books

So The chapter books have 3 parts

Chapters books = 3 * 100 = 300 books

i hope it will help you!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k be the constant of proportionality.  Then we use it as follows:

2k + 3k = 500, or 5k = 500, or k = 100.

Thus, the number of picture books is 2(100) = 200, and the number of chapter books is 3(100) = 300.

As checks:  200 + 300 = 500 (books), and

200

-------- = 2/3, as specified in the problem.

300

Answer:

2t

Step-by-step explanation:

The expressions are not the same because different terms are negative. We can visualize the difference by rewriting the expressions as 13t + (-2t) and (-13t) + 2t. In the first expression, 13t-2t, the 2t is negative because it is being subtracted, and subtracting a number is the same as adding a negative.

A mixture of compounds X and Y in a 0.100-cm cell had an absorbance of 0.215 at 272 nm and 0.191 at 327 nm. Find [X] and [Y] in
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: The concentration of X is 7.13582\times 10^{-6} and the concentration of Y is 2.53159\times 10^{-5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

At 272 nm, absorbance = 0.215

At 327 nm, absorbance = 0.191

As we have given that

                               Compound X             Compound Y

272                               16400                            3870

327                                3990                             6420

So, our equations becomes

16400C_1+3870c_2=0.215\\\\3990C_1+6420C_2=0.191

By solving these two equations, we get that

C_1=7.13582\times 10^{-6}\\\\C_2=2.53159\times 10^{-5}

Hence, the concentration of X is 7.13582\times 10^{-6} and the concentration of Y is 2.53159\times 10^{-5}.
