Answer:

She can make three shirts and will have 7/56 left.

Step-by-step explanation:

49/56-14/56=35/56 (one shirt) 35/56-14/56=21/56 (two shirts) 21/56-14/56=7/56 (three shirts)

Complete the table of ordered pairs for the linear y=2x-8

ExtremeBDS [4]

Given:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

The linear equation is:

$y=2x-8$

To find:

The values to complete the table of ordered pairs for the given linear equation.

Solution:

We have,

$y=2x-8$

Substituting $x=0$ in the given equation, we get

$y=2(0)-8$

$y=0-8$

$y=-8$

So, the value for first blank is -8.

Substituting $y=-2$ in the given equation, we get

$-2=2x-8$

$-2+8=2x$

$\dfrac{6}{2}=x$

$3=x$

So, the value for second blank is 3.

Substituting $x=2$ in the given equation, we get

$y=2(2)-8$

$y=4-8$

$y=-4$

So, the value for third blank is -4.

Therefore, the required complete table is:

x y

0 -8

3 -2

2 -4

A single gram of a certain metallic substance has 0.52 g of copper and 0.25 g of zinc the remaining portion of the substance is

andrezito [222]

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.
