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

Write the ordered pair for the point S.
beks73 [17]

Given:

The location of point S on a coordinate plane.

To find:

The ordered pair for the point S.

Solution:

A point is defined as (x,y), where, |x| is the distance between the point and y-axis, and |y| be the distance between the point and x-axis. Signs of coordinates depend on the quadrant.

From the given graph it is clear that,

Distance between S and y-axis = 3.5

Distance between S and x-axis = 5.5

Point S lies in 3rd quadrant, it means x- and y-coordinates are negative.

Therefore, the ordered pair of point S is (-3.5,-5.5).

What is the solution set of the quadratic inequality f(x) greater than or equal to 0
stellarik [79]

ANSWER

{x | x \in \: R}

EXPLANATION

From the graph, the given quadratic inequality is

{(x + 3)}^{2}  \geqslant 0

We can see that the corresponding quadratic function is a perfect square.

Since the graph opens upwards and it is always above the x-axis, any real number you plug into the inequality, the result is greater than or equal to zero.

Hence the solution set is

{x | x \in \: R}

The correct answer is A
