Answer:

percent of iron in alloy= 100-42 = 58%

weight of the iron = 55×58÷100= 31.9

weight of iron= 31.9 kg

weight of copper= 55-31.9=23.1

weight of copper = 23.1

Answer: copper = 23.1 kg

             iron = 31.9 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

copper = 42% of 55

             = 42/100 * 55

            = 42/20 * 11

           = 21/10 * 11

          = 231/10

          = 23.1 kg

  so iron = 100% - 42%

             = 58%

so

58% of 55

= 58/100 * 55

= 58/20 * 11

=31.9 kg

What is the rule for Aaliyah’s machine? Try to write the rule as an equation.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

  f(x) = 2x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently the ordered pairs are ...

  (x, f(x)) = (1, 3), (2, 5), (3, 7), (4, 9)

We note that as x increases by 1, the value of f(x) increases by 2. The difference between f(x) and 2x is 3-2·1 = 1, so we have ...

  f(x) -2x = 1

  f(x) = 2x +1 . . . . . . add 2x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = number of fruit type/total number of fruit. Total number of fruit = 5 + 9 + 5 = 19.

The probability of drawing an apple is P(apple) = number of apples/total number of fruit = 5/19.

The probability of drawing a peach is P(peach) = number of peaches/total number of fruit = 9/19

The probability of drawing an apple is P(orange) = number of oranges/total number of fruit = 5/19

The probability of drawing either an apple, peach or orange at the first draw of fruit from the bag is

P(apple or peach or orange) =  P(apple) + P(peach) + P(orange)

                                               = 5/19 + 9/19 + 5/19

                                               = (5 + 9 + 5)/19

                                               = 19/19

                                               = 1
