There are two piles, one containing 9gold coins and the other 11silver coins. The two piles of coins weigh the same. One coin is
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Weight of silver coin = 29.25 units , weight of gold coin = 35.75 units

Explanation:

Let the weight of 1 gold coin be W_{1}

Weight of 1 silver coin be W_{2}

Total no of gold coins = 9

Total no of silver coins = 11

Total weight of gold coins = 9\times W_{1}

Total weight of silver coins = 11\times W_{2}

It is given that both weigh same thus we have

9W_{1}=11W_{2}............(i)

After replacing coins the weights become as under

Gold Stack\\9W_{1}-W_{1}+W_{2}=8W_{1}+W_{2}\\\\SilverStack\\\\11W_{2}-W_{2}+W_{1}=10W_{2}+W_{1}

Now it is given that gold stack weighs 13 unit less thus adding 13 units to gold stack gives it's weight equal to silver stack

the above relation modifies as

8W_{1}+W_{2}+13=10W_{2}+W_{1}\\7W_{1}+13=9W_{2}..........(ii)

8W_{1}+W_{2}+13=10W_{2}+W_{1}\\7W_{1}+13=9W_{2}..........(ii)\\\\7\frac{11W_{2}}\\\\Solving equation i and ii we get\\\\{9}+13=9W_{2}\\\\77W_{2}+117=81W_{2}\\\\4W_{2}=117\\\\W_{2}=\frac{117}{4}=29.25units\\\\W_{1}=\frac{11W_{2}}{9}=35.75units

By cleverly alluding to the Declaration of Independence and by telling about his dream for his children, King shows that he is a
Sidana [21]

Answer:

"cleverly" and "is an expert"

Explanation:

"Subjective expressions" are <em>words, phrases or even sentences that makes a statement biased.</em> It is a person's personal thought about an event, a situation, another person and so on.

In the sentence above, the words "cleverly" and "is an expert" are both subjective expressions. The reader doesn't know what it means to "cleverly allude." The writer's way of cleverly alluding might be different from the reader. So, it goes the same way with the phrase, "is an expert." The writer personally thinks that King is expressing himself to be an expert. It is only a personal opinion and not a fact.

Both of the expressions are just according to the writer's feelings and thoughts.
