Answer:

Not that I'm a chemistry expert but mathematically,The total weight of the bar is directly proportional to the known weight of the bar and the given percentage. I worked it out and found that the the total weight of the bar is 30 ounces. This is how I did it

Step-by-step explanation:

80:24

100:n

80(n)=100×24

A little equation and after it's solve the variable (n) will be equal to 30

The unit is added after calculations so that's how the answer is <em><u>3</u></em><em><u>0</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>oun</u></em><em><u>ces</u></em>

The first 3  are examples of the difference of 2 squares so you use the identity 
a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)
x^2 - 49 = 0 
so (x + 7)(x - 7) = 0
so either x + 7 = 0 or x - 7 = 0
giving x = -7  and 7.
Number 7 reduces to 3x^2 =12, x^2  = 4 so x = +/- 2
Number 8  take out GCf (d) to give 
d(d - 2)  = 0   so d = 0 ,  2
9 and 10 are more difficult to factor
you use the 'ac' method  Google it to get more details
2x^2 - 5x + 2
multiply first coefficient by the constant at the end 
that is 2 * 2 =  4
Now we want  2 numbers  which when multiplied give + 4 and when added give - 5:-    -1 and -4  seem promising so we write the equation as:-

2x^2 - 4x - x + 2 = 0

now factor by grouping 
2x(x - 2) - 1(x - 2) = 0

(x - 2) is common so

(2x - 1)(x - 2) = 0
and 2x - 1 = 0 or x - 2 = 0  and now you can find x.

The last example is solved in the same way.

7. Find DE.<br> 11-25<br> E<br> А<br> 4x + 1<br> D<br> С
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

  • DE = 37

Step-by-step explanation:

AD = DC and BE=EC ⇒

DE = 1/2AB

  • 4x + 1 = 1/2(11x - 25)
  • 2(4x + 1) = 11x - 25
  • 8x + 2 = 11x - 25
  • 11x - 8x = 2 + 25
  • 3x = 27
  • x = 27/3
  • x = 9

DE = 4*9 + 1 = 36 + 1 = 37
