1/3+1/4=7/12 because changing the denominators to make them common gives you 4/12+3/12=7/12
Ben's estimate gives 7 g of nickel; the actual amount is 8.03 g.
In 1 g of the substance, there is 0.52 g of copper and 0.25 g of zinc; this gives
0.52+0.25 = 0.77 g of the substance.
The remaining part of the substance is nickel:
1-0.77 = 0.23 g of nickel.
Using Ben's estimate, 0.2 g of nickel per gram of substance, we have
0.2(35) = 7 g of nickel in 35 g of the substance.
The actual amount is 0.23(35) = 8.03 g of nickel in 35 g of the substance.
Answer:
2.75
Step-by-step explanation:
0.10 represents the rate at which prices have increased since 1980..
2.75 represents the price in 1980
This can be confirmed by inputting 0 as the value of x.
2.75+0.10(0) = 2.75
Answer:
About 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of a point on the un-shaded region will be given by;
Area of the shaded region/total area
Considering that the circles are of the same size, then the length of the square is 2d
Area of the square = 4d²
Area of the shaded = (4d² -4π(d/2)²
= 4d² -πd², but π = 22/7
= 6/7d²
Probability = (6/7d² ÷ 4d²) × 100%
= (6/28 d²) × 100%
= 21.42 %
Therefore; the answer is about 20%
The total cost is $22.28, rounded to the nearest half dollar is $22.50.
