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

The length of a garden is 2 feet more than its height. Write an equation for the area of the rectangles in terms of height, h. A
Airida [17]

Answer:

h^2+2h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h be the heigth of this garden

The length of this garden is 2 feet more than the heigth.

So the length can be expressed as h+2

The area of this triangle is the product of the heigth and the length.

A = h*(h+2)

A= h^2 +2h

Identify the slope of the line shown in the graph below:
MrRissso [65]
I believe the slope of any vertical line is "undefined" because slope= rise(change in y values)/ run(change in x values).

Therefore, the slope for a horizontal line is
m= 0/(x2-x1).

However, for a vertical line the x-values are the values that are not changing. So, m= (y2-y1)/0. It is not possible to divide anything by zero. So, the slope of a vertical line is reported as m= undefined.
