Answer:

c. 36 lb. Of carbon; 16 kg of carbon

Step-by-step explanation:

An healthy body is approximately 18% carbon by weight. To determine how many pounds of carbon a body weighing 200Ibs contain can be gotten below.

A healthy person has approximately 18% carbon by weight. Therefore, the number of pounds of carbon for a person weighing 200 Ibs is

pounds of carbon = 18/100 × 200

pounds of carbon = 36 Ibs

According to the question the weight should be in kg.Therefore, we have to convert using the conversion rate you highlighted.

1 Ib = 0.454 kg

36 Ibs = ? kg

cross multiply

weight of carbon in kg = 0.454 × 36

weight of carbon in kg = 16.344 kg

weight of carbon in kg ≈ 16 kg

Compare and Contrast how you would factor x^2−9 and x^2+9. For full credit, make sure you explain why they are factored differen
marishachu [46]

The factored form of the expression x^2 - 9 is (x+3)(x-3)

The expression x^2 + 9 has no real roots hence cannot be factored

Quadratic equations are equations with a degree of 2.

Given the quadratic function x^2-9 \ and \ x^2+9

For the function x^2 - 9

=x^2-9\\=x^2-3^2

Using the difference of two squares:

a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\x^2-3^2=(x-3)(x+3)

For the expression x^2 + 9

The expression x^2 + 9 has no real roots hence cannot be factored
