For this case what we can do is the following rule of three:
 24.3 -----> 130%
 x ---------> 100%
 We clear the value of x:
 x = (100/130) * (24.3)
 x = 18.7 grams
 Answer:
 
the current mass of the object was:
 
x = 18.7 grams

What value should go in the empty box to complete the calculation for finding the product of 62.834 × 0.45? 62.834 times 0.45 gi
iVinArrow [24]
In this item, we are to supply for the missing term on one side of the equation. The left side is given to be composed of 62.834 x 0.45. The right hand side is given to be composed of 314170 along with a missing entity. 

Translating the given to mathematical expression and letting A be the unknown,
  62.834 x 0.45  = 314170 A

To determine the value of A, divide both sides of the equation by 314170.
             (314170A)/(314170) = (62.834 x 0.45) / 314170
                 A = 0.00009

The missing value is 0.00009 or 9.0 x 10^-5.

Larry has at least 3 more books than Pat. If Pat has 6 books, what do you know about the number of books Larry has?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Larry has at least 9 books

Step-by-step explanation:

just add 6 and 3 to get 9. and since it says at least 3 more, you would know that even after adding them, he would have at least 9.

That was a bad explanation, but I hope you know what I mean, if you dont, just comment on my answer and ask any questions about it :)

What is the simplified base of the function f(x) = One-fourth (Root Index 3 StartRoot 108 EndRoot) Superscript x?
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Simplified base would be 3∛4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given exponential function,

f(x)=\frac{1}{4}(\sqrt[3]{108})^x

Since, in an exponential function f(x)=ab^x

b is called base.

∵ 108 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3,

Or 108 = 4 × 3³,

\implies \sqrt[3]{108} = \sqrt[3]{4\times 3^3}

\sqrt[3]{108}=\sqrt[3]{4}\times \sqrt[3](3^3)  ( Using \sqrt[n]{ab}=\sqrt[n]{a}\times \sqrt[n]{b} )

\sqrt[3]{108}=\sqrt[3]{4}\times (3^3)^\frac{1}{3}

\sqrt[3]{108}=\sqrt[3]{4}\times 3^{3\times \frac{1}{3}}  ( Using power of power property of exponent )

\sqrt[3]{108}=3\sqrt[3]{4}

Hence, the required simplified base would be 3∛4

i.e. SECOND option is correct.
