8 0

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically you want to find out what is 70% of 80.

first you have to set up your problem

\frac{n}{80} = \frac{70}{100}

the first fraction would be the percent (70) over 100. (you always use 100)

The fraction to the left would be n over 80. the denominator (the number on the bottom) would be the whole amount. n would be the unknown number

To solve you would use the butterfly method. 80 x 70 and 100 x n. 80 x 70 is 5600 and 100 x n is 100n.

The final step is dividing. 5600 divided by 100 giving you 56

Using the Kinetic Molecular Theory, explain Charles's Law of gases. Refer to specific points of the
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Kinetic theory explains why the volume of a container must expand when the temperature of the gas inside increases in order for the pressure to remain constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Charles' law: for a fixed mass of gas at constant pressure the volume is directly proportional to the temperature.

Analysis of a gas when its temperature increases according to kinetic theory:

The temperature has increased therefore the molecules have more kinetic energy, so they move with a greater velocity.¹

If the container's dimensions do not change the molecules will travel across the container between the walls in less time (because they are moving faster and covering the same distance between the container walls). This will increase the rate of collisions, which would increase the pressure.²

But if the dimensions of the container increased then the molecules would cover a larger distance faster thereby maintaining a constant rate of collisions. This would maintain a constant pressure.

A farmer Has 900 yards of fencing to enclose a rectangular pasture for her goats. Since one side of the pasture borders a river,
horsena [70]

Answer:

Length, l=450 yards

Width, b=225 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the long side be x and since the length is twice the width, then the width is half of that length hence 0.5x. Since we only have three parts to fence as one long side doesn't require fencing, then the perimeter will be given by x+0.5x+0.5x=2x=900 yards

X=900/2=450 yards for long side.

The short side is 0.5x hence 0.5*450=225 yards

In conclusion, the long side is 450 yards while short side is 225 yards.
