Answer:

70kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, because nothing else changed about the treasure chest apart from the amount of treasure when the mass increased, the difference in mass must be the mass of the 1/4 chest of treasure which was added.

712 - 498 = 214kg

Now that we know that 1/4 chest's worth of treasure has a mass of 214kg, we can multiply this by 2 to find the mass of 1/2 a chest of treasure (without the chest):

214 x 2 = 428 kg

We now know that since 1/2 a chest of treasure has a mass of 428kg, the difference between the mass of the chest AND treasure when it is half full must be the mass of the box:

498 (mass of chest and 1/2 chest worth of treasure) - 428 (mass of just 1/2 chest worth of treasure only) = 70kg (mass of chest only)

We can check this by using the other given mass as well. 214 x 3 = 642kg

This means 3/4 of a chest's worth of treasure only, has a mass of 642kg, meaning the extra mass in the 712kg must be the mass of the chest:

712 - 642 = 70kg

The chest has a mass of 70kg.

Hope this helped!

How do I do this question
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Join OB.

∠A=∠A  (common)

\frac{AP}{AO} =\frac{\frac{1}{2} AO}{AO} =\frac{1}{2} \\\frac{AQ}{AB} =\frac{\frac{1}{2} AB}{AB} =\frac{1}{2} \\\frac{AP}{AO} =\frac{AQ}{AB}

∴ ΔAPO and ΔAOB are similar.

\frac{PQ}{OB} =\frac{1}{2} \\

∠P=∠O

∠Q=∠B

So PQ║OB

Similarly RS║OB

∴PQ║RS

RoseWind [281]
8 students traveled in cars, which means that 450 students traveled by bus. 
Since there were 10 buses, just divide the number of students by the number of buses.
450 / 10 = 45
There were B. 45 students on each bus.

What is the factored form of x^12y^18+1
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:  The required factored form of the given expression is

(x^4y^6+1)(x^8y^{12}-x^4y^6+1).

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the factored form of the following algebraic expression:

E=x^{12}y^{18}+1.

We will be using the following formula:

a^3+b^3=(a+b)(a^2+ab+b^2).

Now, we have

E\\\\=x^{12}y^{18}+1\\\\=(x^4y^6)^3+1^3\\\\=(x^4y^6+1)\{(x^4y^6)^2-x^4y^6\times1+1^2\}\\\\=(x^4y^6+1)(x^8y^{12}-x^4y^6+1).

Thus, the required factored form of the given expression is

(x^4y^6+1)(x^8y^{12}-x^4y^6+1).
