If one kilogram weighs about 35 ounces, how many grams are there in 2 ounces (to the nearest gram)?

Answer:

If my math is correct, the answer is about 57.14 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The fact that one kilogram is about 35 ounces is a conversion factor, so if you use that in the equation, it goes something like this

2 ounces /1 x 1 kg/35 ounces x 1000g/1kg

To make the equation balance out, you need to end in grams, which is what the question asks. To get ounces to cancel, you need to use the conversion factor, 35 ounces on the bottom (since ounces over ounces cancels), then you have kilograms left, which you need to convert to grams. You can do this by using the metric system line, which goes Kilo, Hecta, Deca, The unit, Deci, Centi, and milli, each unit increasing by ten as it goes along. Thus, one kilogram equals 1000 grams. Combining this all together, you get 57.14 grams.

Hope this helps!

Can someone answer this

ryzh [129]

Answer:

y = 2x + b (the second answer choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b (the m representing slope and the b representing y-intercept). Put the points in ratio form as a fraction and subtract the ratio with the smallest numbers from the ratio with the largest ratio (5/1 - 1/-1) to get 4/2. When simplified, it becomes 2/1, so the slope is 2. Using the slope found previously, subtract 1 from the x of (1, 5) and 2 from the y of (1, 5) to get the y-intercept. The resulting point is (0, 3), so the y-intercept is 3. Replace the m with the found slope (2) and b with the found y-intercept (3) to end up with y = 2x + 3.

Find the volume of a cylinder with a diameter of 10 inches and a height that is three times the radius. Use 3.14 for pi and roun

GaryK [48]

Answer:

Height- 15 Answer- 1177.5 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The height is 15 because the radius is 5 and it said the height is 3 times the radius.5 x 3 = 15. The answer is 1177.5 cubic inches because if you take pi times the radius squared times the height, you get 1177.5 cubic inches.

How do you use pythagorean theorem finding c on a right triangle with one side 10 and the other 5?

irina1246 [14]

The pythagorean theorem is C^2=a^2+b^2.(^2=squared) Where C is equal to the longest side of the of the triangle or the hypotnos. So if you plug 10 into a and 5 into b then your formula is C^2=10^2+5^2 simplifying to C^2=100+25 simplifying again C^2=125. Now you don't want C^2 you just want c so you have to take the square root of both sides. sqrt(c^2)=sqrt(125) simplifying to c=11.180 if you round to the 3rd decimal place. Final answer c=<span>11.180.</span>

A dresser contains 4 pairs of socks, with 1 each in the colors red, black, blue, and grey. It also contains 3 skirts, with 1 eac

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

Hence the probability that 1 pair of red socks and 1 black skirt are chosen at random is $\dfrac{1}{12}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A denotes the event that 1 pair of red socks are chosen.

Let B denote the event that a 1 black skirt is chosen.

let P denotes the probability of an event. ( Probability of an event is defined as the ratio of Number of favourable outcomes over the total number of outcomes)

$P(A)=\dfrac{1}{4}$ and $P(B)=\dfrac{1}{3}$

Hence, the probability that 1 pair of red socks and 1 black skirt are chosen at random i.e. $P(A \bigcap B)$ is given by:

$P(A \bigcap B)=P(A)\times P(B)$ (since the events are independent)

Hence, $P(A \bigcap B)=\dfrac{1}{4}\times \dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{12}$
