<u>1. First find the density of your chain</u>
- Volume = displaced water volume
= Volume of Final level of water - initial level of water
= 20 ml - 15 ml = 5 ml
- Density = 66.7g / 5 ml = 13.34 g/ml
<u />
<u>2. Second, write the denisty of the chain as the weighted average of the densities of the other metals:</u>
Mass of gold × density of gold + mass of other metals × density of other metals, all divided by the mass of the chain.
Calling x the amount of gold, then the amount of other metals is 66.7 - x:
Then, there are 26.47 grams of gold in 66.7 grams of chain, which yields a percentage of:
- (26.47 / 66.7) × 100 = 39.7%
Answer:
6 cm by 6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the formula for area of a square is A = s² where A = area and s is the length of one side. We know that A = 36 so:
36 = s²
√36 = s
s = ±6
Note that s = -6 is an extraneous solution because you can't have a side length of -6, therefore the answer is s = 6 so the dimensions of the square are 6 cm by 6 cm.

Answer:
(C)72.4 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Given an acute triangle in which the longest side measures 30 inches; and the other two sides are congruent.
Consider the attached diagram
AB=BC=x
However to be able to solve for x, we form a right triangle with endpoints A and C.
Since the hypotenuse is always the longest side in a right triangle
Hypotenuse, AC=30 Inches
Using Pythagoras Theorem
Therefore, the smallest possible perimeter of the triangle
Perimeter=2x+30
=2(21.21)+30
=42.42+30
=72.4 Inches (rounded to the nearest tenth)
