To answer the question above, use conversion factors and dimensional analysis. In this given, it is easier to use grams as the basis.
a. (2 centrigrams) x (1 gram / 100 centigrams) = 0.02 grams
b. 2 grams
c. (2 hectograms) x (1 gram / 0.01 hectogram) = 200 grams
d. (2 kilograms) x (1 gram / 0.001 kilogram) = 2000 grams
e. (2 milligrams) x (1 gram / 1000 millimeters) = 0.002 grams
Thus, the answer is 2 milligrams.
Factoring the expression would look like this :
(p - 7) (p - 6)
Answer:
7. 23
8. 18
9. 55
10. 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the amount of Columbian coffee in the mixture and y the amount of Sumatra coffee in the mixture, then
x + y = 1 . . . (1)
9.25x + 14.25y = 12.50 . . . (2)
(1) x 9.25 => 9.25x + 9.25y = 9.25 . . . (3)
(2) - (3) => 5y = 3.25 => y = 3.25/5 = 0.65
From (1), x + 0.65 = 1 => x = 1 - 0.65 = 0.35
1 pound of the mixture contains 0.35 Columbian coffee and 0.65 Sumatra coffee
Therefore, 12 pounds of the mixture will contain 0.35 x 12 = 4.2 pounds of Columbian coffee and 0.65 x 12 = 7.8 pounds of Sumatra coffee
