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

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation


You must find the common denominator for all of them.  


A is correct. 13 x 2 is 26 and 14 x 2 is 28. Therefore, 13/14 is greater than 25/28.


B is not correct. 4 x 5 is 20 and 9 x 5 is 45. 4/9 is actually less than 21/45.


C is not correct. 5 x 2 is 10 and 6 x 2 is 12. 5/6 is actually less than 11/12.


D is not correct. 4 x 5 is 20 and 5 x 5 is 25. 4/5 is actually less than 8/25.

A climber is standing at the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, approximately 3.7 mi above sea level. The radius of the Earth is 3959 mi.
RoseWind [281]
We are given
height = 3.7 mi
radius = 3959 mi

We are asked for the distance between the man and the horizon
The straight line from the man to the horizon is a tangent line to the surface of the earth
Using Pythagorean theorem
(3.7 + 3959)² = 3959² + d²

Solve for d
d = 171 mi

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

1) 2(t - 7)(t + 1)

2) $32,000

Step-by-step explanation:

v(t) = 2t² - 12t - 14

v(t) = 2(t² - 6t - 7) = 2(t - 7)(t + 1)

x = -b/2a = 6/2 = 3

y = 2(3)² - 12(3) - 14 = -32

(3, -32) means at 3 months, -32 thousand dollars
