Answer: depending on the method, 138-139 (imperial) gallons, or 626 L

Explanation:

The wt of water is 4924-3547 lb = 1377 lb = 1377/2.2 kg = 626 kg = 626 L

1gallon = 4.5 L (it does where I come from and who still measures things in imperial anyway?) so I guess  that is 139 gallons

or alternatively, I recall from distant childhood, “a pint of water weighs a pound and a quarter” which means 1 gallon = 10 lb, so 1377 lb = ~138 gallons

How do you use pedigrees to determine and explain the inheritance of traits?
Firdavs [7]
We know that organisms inherit their traits from their parents, and these traits are a combination of the traits their parents possessed. Therefore, by using a pedigree to map the ancestry of an organism, we may evaluate the propagation of a specific trait through the organism's family. An example of this is when people are assessed for the risk of diseases like breast cancer and sickle cell anemia.

Gold is alloyed (mixed) with other metals to increase its hardness in making jewelry.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

A) 54.04%

B) 13-karat

Explanation:

A) From the problem we have

<em>1)</em> Mg + Ms = 9.40 g

<em>2)</em> Vg + Vs = 0.675 cm³

Where M stands for mass, V stands for volume, and g and s stand for gold and silver respectively.

We can rewrite the first equation using the density values:

<em>3)</em> Vg * 19.3 g/cm³ + Vs * 10.5 g/cm³ = 9.40

So now we have<em> a system of two equations</em> (2 and 3) <em>with two unknowns</em>:

We <u>express Vg in terms of Vs</u>:

  • Vg + Vs = 0.675 cm³
  • Vg = 0.675 - Vs

We <u>replace the value of Vg in equation 3</u>:

  • Vg * 19.3 + Vs * 10.5 = 9.40
  • (0.675-Vs) * 19.3 + Vs * 10.5 = 9.40
  • 13.0275 - 19.3Vs + 10.5Vs = 9.40
  • -8.8 Vs + 13.0275 = 9.40
  • <u>Vs = 0.412 cm³</u>

Now we <u>calculate Vg</u>:

  • Vg + Vs = 0.675 cm³
  • Vg + 0.412 cm³ = 0.675 cm³
  • Vg = 0.263 cm³

We <u>calculate Mg from Vg</u>:

  • 0.263 cm³ * 19.3 g/cm³ = 5.08 g

We calculate the mass percentage of gold:

  • 5.08 / 9.40 * 100% = 54.04%

B)

We multiply 24 by the percentage fraction:

  • 24 * 54.04/100 = 12.97-karat ≅ 13-karat
