In preparing a certain ointment, a pharmacist used 28.35 g of zinc oxide instead of the 31.1 g called for. Calculate the percent

Vilka [71]

Answer: 9.70%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the percentage error is given by :-

$\%\text{ error}=\dfrac{|\text{Estimate-Actual}|}{\text{Actual}}\times100$

Given : Actual mass of zinc oxide used by pharmacist = 28.35 g

Estimated mass of zinc oxide used by pharmacist =31.1 g

Now, $\%\text{ error}=\dfrac{|31.1-28.35|}{28.35}\times100$

i.e. $\%\text{ error}=\dfrac{2.75}{28.35}\times100$

i.e. $\%\text{ error}=9.70017636684\approx9.70\%$

Hence, the percentage of error on the basis of the desired quantity.= 9.70%

The student council sold jars of mixed nuts at their bazaar they were given 40 empty jars. They paid $19.60 for the nuts and $11

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

$\$1.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount paid for the nuts is $19.60

Total amount paid for the ribbons is $11.20

Profit made on each jar is 98￠= $0.98

Cost price of the nuts and ribbon for the 40 jars is $19.6+11.2=\$30.8$

Cost price for nuts and ribbonn for one jar = $\dfrac{30.8}{40}=\$0.77$

Selling price is the sum of the cost price and profit.

Selling price for one jar = $0.77+0.98=\$1.75$

They charged $\$1.75$ for each jar.

Graph an inequality on a number line: 15>m

barxatty [35]

When the sign is ≤ or ≥ ("less/greater than <u>or equal to</u>"), the dot if filled in.

When the sign is < or >, the dot is not filled in/open circle.

15 > m

[15 is greater than m, or m is less than 15]

Since m is less than 15, the arrow is going to the left (the numbers to the left are less than 15)

Y = 3x − 8

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

A. You would first plot the y intercept. The first equation would be (0,-8) and the second equation is (0,-11). Then you would plot the slope. For the first equation, from (0,-8), you would move up 3 plots and right 1 plot. For the second equation, from (0,-11), you would move up 9 plots and right 1 plot.

B. The solution to the pair of inequalities is (1/2, -13/2). That is the intersection and point of the two lines. You would need to graph the two lines (see part A answer) and then find the intersection.

Hope this helps!
