Answer:

She should use 32.5 g of the sample that contains 14%

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the number of grams of the sample that contains 14% copper that should be used

let the number of grams that contains 14% copper to be used be x

Then the number of grams of 22% will be 130-x

Thus, mathematically;

0.14(x) + 0.22(130-x) = 0.2(130)

0.14x + 28.6 - 0.22x = 26

0.22x - 0.14x = 28.6 - 26

0.08x = 2.6

x = 26/0.08

x = 32.5

Sin 7A = cos 3A, then m∠A is what?
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

m∠A = 9°

Step-by-step explanation:

\sin 7A =  \cos 3A \\  \\ \sin 7A =  \sin(90 \degree -  3A) \\  \\ 7A =  90 \degree -  3A\\  \\ 7A  + 3A=  90 \degree  \\  \\ 10A=  90 \degree  \\  \\ A =  \frac{90 \degree}{10}  \\  \\  m \angle A =9 \degree

For what value of "a" will the product shown below have a purely imaginary value? (Show work please)
MakcuM [25]
If you expand out the brackets you get this,

(4+5i)(a+2i) = 4a + (5a)i + 8i - 10

The -10 comes from 5i * 2i.
Squaring i becomes -1.

Let's group the real stuff together,
and imaginary separately,

(4a - 10) + (5a + 8)i

For this to be purely imaginary,
the real part needs to be zero.

Therefore 4a - 10 = 0

Solve for a.
