How many ounces of pure nickel must be added to 150 ounces of alloy 70% pure to make an alloy which is 85% pure?

galben [10]

Answer:

150 oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are already 150 ounces of alloy of nickel.

Of this 150 oz, 70% is pure i.e. nickel content = 150(0.7) = 105 oz

Now available is

Nickel Other metals

105 45

Let x oz of pure nickel is added.

Then new alloy will have 105+x oz nickel in total of 150+x oz.

Percentage pure = $\frac{105+x}{150+x} =85%$

Simplify to get

$\frac{105+x}{150+x} =\frac{85}{100} \\\\Cross multiply:\\85(150+x) =100(105+x)\\12750+85x =10500+100x\\100x-85x = 12750-10500\\15x = 2250\\x = 150$

Hence answer is 150 oz should be added.

An oblong box has a volume equal to lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height. If the volume is 24 cubic f

rjkz [21]

<span>An oblong box has a volume equal to lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height. If the volume is 24 cubic feet, solve for the height in terms of the other sides.

Given:
volume of 24 cubic feet

Required:
height

Solution:
V = 24 cubic feet
assume that the length, weight and height of the box are all equal
so l = w = h

24 = l^3
l = 2.88 feet</span>

A waterbed filled with water has the dimensions 8ft by 7 ft by .75 ft taking the density of water to be 1.00/gm cubed how many k

monitta

By definition, the density is given by:

$D = \frac{m}{V}$

Where,

m: mass

V: volume

Clearing the mass we have:

$m = DV$

The volume is given by:

$V = (8) * (7) * (0.75)$

$V = 42ft ^ 3$

Then, we have the following conversion:

$1foot = 0.3048m$

Applying the conversion we have:

$V = 42 * (0.3048) ^ 3$

$V = 1.19m ^ 3$

On the other hand we have the following conversions:

$1m = 100cm$

$1Kg = 1000g$

Applying the conversions for the density we have:

$D = (1\frac{g}{cm^3})((\frac{100}{1})^3\frac{cm^3}{1m^3})(\frac{1}{1000}\frac{Kg}{g})=1000\frac{Kg}{m^3}$

Then, the mass of the water is:

$m = (1000) * (1.19)$

$m = 1190$

Answer:

1190 kilgrams of water are required to fill the waterbed
