Hi there!

Answer:

<u><em>x=403 and 403=x</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Because a student says the answer is 347 is not the right answer. The final answer should be x=403 and 403=x.

375=x-28

Switch sides.

x-28=375

add by 28 both sides of an equation.

x-28+28=375+28

simplify.

x=403 and 403=x

403-28=375

28+375=403

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=403

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this equation you have to clear X and to clear X you have to add 28 in both sides of the equation to eliminate the -28 from the side of the x:

375=x-28

375(+28)=x-28+(28)

375+28=x

x=403

The student instead of adding the 28 put them with negative sign making him withdraw from teh 375 instead of adding, that was his mistake.

A 150 no container can hold 23.6 g of aluminum what is the density of the aluminum?
Drupady [299]

Answer:

# The density of the aluminum is 59/375 ≅ 0.157 g/cm³

# The volume of the container is 4/17 ≅ 0.235 cm³

# The mass of iron is 1225 g

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Density is a measurement that compares the amount of matter

 of an object to its volume [ Density = mass/volume]

- Density is found by dividing the mass of an object by its volume

- The unit of measuring density is gram per centimeter³ (milliliter)

* Lets solve the problems

# A container of volume 150 cm³ can hold 23.6 g of aluminum

∵ Density = mass/volume

∵ The mass = 23.6 g

∵ The volume = 150 cm³

∴ The density = 23.6/150 = 59/375 ≅ 0.157 g/cm³

* The density of the aluminum is 59/375 ≅ 0.157 g/cm³

# The density of mercury is 13.6 g/cm³ at 23 C°

- A container can hold 3.2 g of mercury at this temperature

∵ Density = mass/volume

∵ The mass = 3.2 g

∵ The density = 13.6 g/cm³

∴ 13.6 = 3.2/volume

- By using cross multiplication

∴ The volume = 3.2/13.6 = 4/17 cm³

* The volume of the container is 4/17 ≅ 0.235 cm³

# The density of the iron is 4.9 g/cm³

- The beaker has a volume 250 ml

∵ Density = mass/volume

∵ The ml = cm³

∴ The volume of the beaker is 250 cm³

∵ The density = 4.9 g/cm³

∴ 4.9 = mass/250

- Multiply both sides by 250

∴ mass = 1225 g

* The mass of iron is 1225 g

Find the value of 40% of 1KM (in m)​
labwork [276]

40% of 1 km in meters is 400 meters

<h3>What is percentage :</h3>

Percentage simply means per 100. Percentage can be express as decimal or fraction.

For example 25% of 80 can be found as follows:

  • 25 / 100 × 80 = 2000 / 100 = 20

From the example, 25% of 80 is 20 .

Therefore, 40% of 1 km(m) can be found as follows:

Let's convert km to metres.

1000m = 1km

40% of 1000

40 / 100 × 1000 = 40000 / 100 = 400metres

Therefore, 40% of 1 km in meters is 400 meters
