The density of Styrofoam in grams per cubic centimeter is 0.052 \ \frac{g}{cm^3}.

The density of the Styrofoam is less than 1, hence it will float in water.

<u />

<u>The given parameters;</u>

  • density of Styrofoam = 0.03 ounce per cubic inch

<u>To find:</u>

  • the density in grams per cubic centimeter

1 ounce = 28.35 gram

1 in³ = 16.3871 cm³

The density of Styrofoam in grams per cubic centimeter is calculated as follows;

\rho = \frac{0.03 \ ounce}{in^3} \times \frac{1 \ in^3}{16.3871 \ cm^3} \times \frac{28.35 \ g}{1 \ ounce} = 0.052 \ \frac{g}{cm^3}

Since the density of water is  1 \ \frac{g}{cm^3}, and the density of the Styrofoam is less than 1, hence the Styrofoam will float in water.

Evaluate 6+ the sq root of 14+x minus - the sq root of 9x when x=2
romanna [79]
Hello 
let : f(x) = 6 + √(14+x) - <span>√(9x)
f(2) = </span>6 + √(14+2) - √(9×2)
f(2) = 6 + √(16)-√(18) 
f(2) = 6 + 4 - √(18)  = 10 - √(18)

For the equation 2(4+x)+(13+x)=3x+k which value of k will create an equation with no solutions. .A. x B. 3x .C 15 D. 21
Artist 52 [7]
<h3>Answer: choice C) 15</h3>

Simplify the left side to get

2(4+x)+(13+x)

2(4)+2(x) +13+x

8+2x+13+x

3x+21

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

So the original equation

2(4+x)+(13+x) = 3x+k

turns into

3x+21 = 3x+k

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

Subtract 3x from both sides

3x+21 = 3x+k

3x+21-3x = 3x+k-3x

21 = k

k = 21

-----------

If k = 21, then the original equation will have infinitely many solutions. This is because we will end up with 3x+21 on both sides, leading to 0 = 0 after getting everything to one side. This is a true equation no matter what x happens to be.

If k is some fixed number other than 21, then there will be no solutions. This equation is inconsistent (one side says one thing, the other side says something different). If k = 15, then

3x+21 = 3x+k

3x+21 = 3x+15

21 = 15 .... subtract 3x from both sides

The last equation is false, so there are no solutions here.

note: if you replace k with a variable term, then there will be exactly one solution.
