To determine the density of grains, a student uses a 50ml beaker graded by 5ml increments and a scale with 1g absolute uncertain

ty. The measurement of the volume results in 3 full beakers and 1 beaker filled up to 30ml. Measured mass of a plastic container with all the grains is 185 grams; measured mass of the same container without grains is 65 grams. What is the mass of the grains

Answer:

The mass of the grains = 120 ± 1 g

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following:

Total mass of container + grains = 185 grams

Mass of container = 65 grams

Therefore, mass of grains is calculated as follows:

Mass of grains = ( Mass of container + grains) - mass of container

= 185 - 65 = 120 grams.

since the scale has an absolute uncertainty of 1 g, the mass of the grains is written as 120 ± 1 g

What is three decimals that have a sum of 10.806
White raven [17]

Answer:

  10 + 0.8 + 0.006 = 10.806

Step-by-step explanation:

Pick any two decimal numbers. The third one will be the difference between 10.806 and the sum of the two numbers you picked.

For example, choose 938.2 and 3.0055. Their sum is 941.2055. Then the third number that will make the sum be 10.806 is ...

  10.806 -941.2055 = -930.3995

So, your three numbers could be ...

  {938.2, 3.0055, -930.3995}

Jayden has some dimes and some quarters. He has at most 25 coins worth at least $4.60 combined. If Jayden has 7 dimes, determine
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A dime is worth 10 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes 10/100 = $0.1

A quarter is worth 25 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes 25/100 = $0.25

Let x represent the number of dimes that Jayden has.

Let y represent the number of quarters that Jayden has.

Jayden has some dimes and some quarters. He has at most 25 coins. It means that

x + y ≤ 25

The coins worth at least $4.60 combined. It means that

0.1x + 0.25y ≥ 4.6 - - - - - - - - - - 1

If Jayden has 7 dimes, then

7 + y ≤ 25

y ≤ 25 - 7

y ≤ 18

Substituting x = 7 into equation 1, it becomes

0.1 × 7 + 0.25y ≥ 4.6

0.7 + 0.25y ≥ 4.6

0.25y ≥ 4.6 - 0.7

0.25y ≥ 3.9

y ≥ 3.9/0.25

y ≥ 15.6

All possible values for the number of quarters that he could have would be

15.6 ≤ y ≤ 18

The weight of Jacob’s backpack is made up of the weight of the contents of the backpack as well as the weight of the backpack it
Dafna11 [192]
If the backpack (b) contains only textbooks (t) and notebooks (n), the total weight of the backpack is:

b+t+n

but notebooks are 4 pounds, so actually:

b+t+4

also, the backpack weights 2 pounds, so the total weight is:

2+t+4 =t+6
 now, "Seventy percent of <span> the total weight is textbooks. ", this means that


t=70%(t+6) - this equation can be used to determine the weight of the textbooks!

A rock is thrown in the air from the edge of a seaside cliff. Its height in feet is represented by f(x) = –16(x^2 – 8x – 9), whe
algol13
Since x is the number of seconds it took the rock to hit the water, x is the value that we are looking for. When the rock hits the water, it's height is 0, therefore, f(x) = 0. So, we can set the expression on the right equal to 0, and solve for 0. Let's do just that:
0 = -16(x^2-8x-9)

We can divide by -16, nothing will happen because 0 divided by anything is 0:
0 = x^2-8x-9

To factor any trinomial in standard form (given below), we must find two numbers that add to "b" and multiply to "c":
0 = ax^2 + bx + c

So, for this specific question, let's find two numbers that add to -8 and multiply to 9. These are clearly 9 and -1. We can write it in this way now:
0 = (x-9)(x+1)

Both answers would be valid, but there can't be negative time, so your answer is "It takes 9 seconds for the rock to reach the water."
