An alloy consists of nickel, zinc, and copper in the ratio 2:7:9.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alexus [3.1K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

0.4kg, 1.4kg and 1.8kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

         Mass of alloy = 3.6kg

         Ratio of elements in the alloy = 2:7:9

Unknown:

Mass of each element in the alloy = ?

Solution:

To find the mass of each element in the alloy, first find the sum of the ratio;

              2+7+9 = 18

Mass of nickel  = \frac{2}{18} x 3.6 = 0.4kg

Mass of zinc = \frac{7}{18} x 3.6 = 1.4kg

Mass of copper = \frac{9}{18} x 3.6 = 1.8kg

The mass of each metal is 0.4kg, 1.4kg and 1.8kg

R^3 +4r^2-25r-100<br><br> Help
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

The zeroes in this equation are -5, -4, and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find these, you need to factor by splitting. For this, we separate out the two halves of the equation and pull out the greatest common factor of each. Let's start with the front end.

r^3 + 4r^2

r^2(r + 4)

Now the second half.

-25r - 100

-25(r + 4)

Since what is left in the parenthesis are exactly the same, we can use that parenthesis next to one with what we pulled out.

(r^2 - 25)(r + 4)

And we can further factor the first parenthesis using the difference of two squares

(r^2 - 25)(r + 4)

(r + 5)(r - 5)(r + 4)

Now that we are fully factored, set each parenthesis equal to 0 and solve for x.

r + 5 = 0

r = -5

r - 5 = 0

r = 5

r + 4 = 0

r = -4

What is the equation of a line passes thru the point (4, 2) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y = ×/3 - 1 ??
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite and reciprocal. Therefore, the line we are looking for has a -3 slope.

y= -3x+b

Now, we can substitute in the point given to find the intercept.

2= -3(4)+b

2= -12+b

b=14

Finally, put in everything we've found to finish the equation.

y= -3x+14

What is the approximate area of the pizza
Dovator [93]
If you have several different sized pizzas, you can compare their areas. So the area of a pizza is the length of the crust (circumference) divided by two times the distance from the edge to the middle (radius). Mathematicians use a special number called pi to calculate the circumference of a circle.
