Answer:

A. 29.93 grams

B. 29.925 grams

C. 0.005 grams

D. 5.985 grams per dose

Step-by-step explanation:

Chemical A = 10.357 grams

Chemical B = 12.062 grams

Chemical C = 7.506 grams

Number of doses of drugs = 5

A. About how much medicine in grams

Round each chemical to the nearest tenth

Chemical A = 10.36 grams

Chemical B = 12.06 grams

Chemical C = 7.51 grams

Total medicine in grams = chemical A + chemical B + chemical C

= 10.36 + 12.06 + 7.51

= 29.93 grams

B. Find the exact amount of medicine mixed by Dr. Stevens.

Total medicine in grams = chemical A + chemical B + chemical C

= 10.357 + 12.062 + 7.506

= 29.925 grams

C. What is the difference between the exact amount and the estimated amount of medicine

Difference = Estimated amount - Exact amount

= 29.93 grams - 29.925 grams

= 0.005 grams

D. How many grams are in one dose of medicine?

Grams in a dose = exact amount of chemicals / 5 doses

= 29.925 grams / 5

= 5.985 grams per dose

Approximately 5.99 grams per dose

An artist used silver wire to make a square that has a perimeter of 40 inches. She then used copper wire to make the largest cir

Serhud [2]

Answer:

The artist used $8.6\ in$ more of silver wire

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

we know that

The Perimeter of the square is equal to

$P=4a$

where

a is the length side of the square

$P=40\ in$

so

$40=4a$

$a=10\ in$

so

Each side of the square has a length of 10 in

step 2

Find the circumference of the circle

The diameter of the circle is equal to the length of the side of the square

The circumference is equal to

$C=\pi D$

we have

$D=10\ in$

substitute

$C=(3.14)(10)=31.4\ in$

step 3

Find the difference

$40\ in-31.4\ in=8.6\ in$

A subtending arc on a circle with a radius of 4.5 centimeters has an arc length of 8π. The measure of the angle subtended by the

dem82 [27]

Answer: 320°

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a circle geometry.

The arc length of the circle is given to be 8πcm and the radius is 4.5cm.

Now the length of an arc of a circle is

Arc length = πr0°/180° or 2πr0°/360°

To find the angle 0° subtend at the center we equate the arc length with the formula and solve for 0°.Now we go

πr0°/180 = 8π, convert to a simple linear equal and solve for the angle.

πr0° = 8π × 180

0°. = 8π × 180

-----------

π × r

= 8 × 180. 8 × 180

-------- or ---------

9/2. 4.5

= 8 × 180 × 2

------------

9

= 8 × 20 × 2

= 320°

or 8 × 180/4.5

= 1440/4.5

= 320°
