Answer:

The mass of the chocolate will be between 2.42 ounces and 2.58 ounces, the absolute value inequality is: $|mass - 2.5| < 0.08$

Step-by-step explanation:

The ideal mass of the chocolate is 2.5 ounces, although it can vary by 0.08 ounces, this variation can occur for greater masses and lesser ones. Therefore the actual mass of the each chocolate will sit between the ideal mass minus 0.08 and the ideal mass plus 0.08. Therefore we can construct the following inequality:

$-0.08 < mass + 2.58$

The mass of the chocolate will be between 2.42 ounces and 2.58 ounces, the absolute value inequality is: $|mass - 2.5| < 0.08$

Answer:

- 7 / 4

Step-by-step explanation:

( x1, y1 ) = ( 1, 10 )

Here,

x1 = 1

y1 = 10

( x2, y2 ) = ( 5, 3 )

Here,

x2 = 5

y2 = 3

Formula : -

Slope = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )

Slope = ( 3 - 10 ) / ( 5 - 1 )

Slope = - 7 / 4

Proper fraction = - 7 / 4

The amount in a savings account after x years is represented by A = P(1 + r)* Suppose A = 2100(1.04)* models the amount in your

koban [17]

Answer:

B. The rate of increase is 4%

D. 2100 represents the initial deposit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the equation modeling the savings account.

A = 2100(1.04)

1.04 represent the percent the current account is of the previous one.

That is a 4% increase, which remains the same, so B is one of the correct answers.

2100 was the original deposit, so D is correct as well.

Knowing this, B and D are correct.

How many liters of water should be added to 18 liters of a 14% bleach solution so that the resulting solution contains only 10%

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

7.2 liters of water must be added to create a 10% bleach solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

18 liters times 14%, or 18 * 0.14, is 2.52. If we want bleach to be 10% of our solution, we can just multiply this number by 10 because 10% times 10 is 100%!! 2.52 * 10 is 25.2. To find how many liters of water you need to add you just find the difference. To do this you subtract your original from your new solution, so 25.2 - 18 = 7.2 liters of water need to be added.
