The question is ambiguous.
A is right if the second hour is in terms of the original amount (16 grams). That is not how it should be done, but there is nothing in the problem restricting us from doing it that way.
B is right the way most people would do the problem. I would say you should accept this as the right answer. The 4.5% is taken away from what was left after the first hour. I would do it that way left to my own devices.
C. The % conversions are not correct. Those conversions are 35% and 45%
C is not even in contention for being right.
D Same problem as C

Answer:
The value of <em>c</em> is 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The perfect square of the difference between two numbers is:
The expression provided is:
The expression is a perfect square of the difference between two numbers.
One of the number is <em>x</em> and the other is √<em>c</em>.
Use the above relation to compute the value of <em>c</em> as follows:
![x^{2}-15x+c=(x-\sqrt{c})^{2}\\\\x^{2}-15x+c=x^{2}-2\cdot x\cdot\sqrt{c}+c\\\\15x=2\cdot x\cdot\sqrt{c}\\\\15=2\cdot\sqrt{c}\\\\\sqrt{c}=\frac{15}{2}\\\\c=[\frac{15}{2}]^{2}\\\\c=\frac{225}{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7B2%7D-15x%2Bc%3D%28x-%5Csqrt%7Bc%7D%29%5E%7B2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cx%5E%7B2%7D-15x%2Bc%3Dx%5E%7B2%7D-2%5Ccdot%20x%5Ccdot%5Csqrt%7Bc%7D%2Bc%5C%5C%5C%5C15x%3D2%5Ccdot%20x%5Ccdot%5Csqrt%7Bc%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C15%3D2%5Ccdot%5Csqrt%7Bc%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Csqrt%7Bc%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B15%7D%7B2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cc%3D%5B%5Cfrac%7B15%7D%7B2%7D%5D%5E%7B2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cc%3D%5Cfrac%7B225%7D%7B4%7D)
Thus, the value of <em>c</em> is .
There are 12 inches in 1 foot, and each bracelet takes 6 inches
12 divided by 6 = 2
there can be 2 bracelets per foot of yarn
5 x 2 = 10 bracelets can be made
let me know if you have any further questions

Answer:
x = 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
