Answer:

65.2 milliliters

Step-by-step explanation:

The quantity 336 milliliters is the 100% of the solution. We can represent this information on a table:

Milliliters        Percentage of solution

     336        ⇔            100%

we are told that 19.4% of this solution is acid, and we need to know how many milliliters represents this percentage. I will call the number of milliliters of acid on the solution 'x', and updating the last table:

Milliliters        Percentage of solution

     336        ⇔            100

     x             ⇔            19.4%

We can solve this problem for 'x' using the<u> rule of three</u> which is to multiply the cross quantities on the table (336 by 19.4) and then divide by the remaining amount (100):

x = 336(19.4)/100

x = 6,518.4/100

x = 65.184

which rounding to the nearest tenth is: 65.2 milliliters

denis23 [38]
Given that <span>the weights of farmer carl's potatoes are normally distributed with a mean of 8.0 ounces and a standard deviation of 1.1 ounces.

The probability of a normally distributed data between two values (a, b) is given by:

P(a\ \textless \  X\ \textless \  b)=P\left(z\ \textless \  \frac{b-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} \right)-P\left(z\ \textless \  \frac{a-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} \right) \\  \\ =P(7.5\ \textless \ X\ \textless \ 8.5)=P\left(z\ \textless \  \frac{8.5-8.0}{1.1/\sqrt{6}} \right)-P\left(z\ \textless \  \frac{7.5-8.0}{1.1/\sqrt{6}} \right) \\  \\ =P(z\ \textless \ 1.113)-P(-1.113)=0.8672-0.1328=0.7344</span>

maks197457 [2]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find the difference 3201-2750=451, it has increased by 451, then divide the difference by the original number, which is 2750 because thats what she started off with (3201 would be the new number)

Increase% = Increase ÷ Original Number ×100

451÷2750×100=16.4%

A tree trunk is pulled with a force of 3200 pounds by a truck’s cable that makes an angle of 25° with the horizontal. What is th
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The vertical component of the force correct to the nearest pound Is

1352 pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Kindly find attached for your reference

This problem bothers on the topic of work energy and power

Given data

Applied force = 3200 pounds

Angle of application = 25°

We know that the horizontal force =

F= 3200cos 25°

Hence the vertical component of this force = F= 3200sin 25

=3200*0.42261

= 1352.352

to the nearest pound

F = 1352pound
