I was planting a tree in my backyard and hit something hard. I dug it out and decided it was an ore of copper. I took its mass,

and it was 65.0 grams. after some tricky experiments in my basement lab, I managed to extract 11.5 grams of copper. what is the mass percent of copper in the ore I discovered? a.63.5%b.18.1%c.5.65%d.17.7%

Answer:

option (d) 17.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Mass of the ore of copper extracted from the backyard = 65.0 grams

Mass of the copper extracted from the ore of copper = 11.5 grams

Now,

The mass percent of copper discovered

= [ ( Mass of the copper extracted ) ÷ ( Mass of the copper ore extracted ) ] × 100%

= [ 11.5 grams ÷ 65.0 grams ] × 100%

= 17.692% ≈ 17.7%

Hence,

the answer is option (d) 17.7%

Assuming no direct factory overhead costs (i.e., inventory carry costs) and $3 million dollars in combined promotion and sales b
alexira [117]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we assume  no direct factory overhead costs (i.e., inventory carry costs) and $3 million dollars in combined promotion and sales budget, the Deal product manager wishes to achieve a product contribution margin of 35%.

Sales - variable cost = Fixed cost + profit

Here fixed cost = 3 million dollars

Sales - variable = contribution = 35%

35% should atleast meet the fixed cost

i.e. 35% = 3 million

100% = 8.57 million can be cost

Since fixed cost will not change and remain 3 million these 5,57 million can be given to material and labor costs

So material and labor cost should be limited upto 5.57 million increase.

The sum of 6 consecutive even numbers is <br> 270.<br> What is the second number in this sequence?
KonstantinChe [14]
Lets find all the numbers..

x (1st number)
x + 2 ( 2nd number)
x + 4 (3rd number)
x + 6 (4th number)
x + 8 (5th number)
x + 10 (6th number)

Now add all those expressions and set them equal to 270 because that is the total.

x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 + x + 10 = 270
6x + 30 = 270
6x = 240
x = 40

Now we will substitute 40 for x in the expression of the second number.

x + 2
40 + 2
42

So the second number is 42

Hope this helps :)

The lifespans of meerkats in a particular zoo are normally distributed. The average meerkat lives 10.410.410, point, 4 years; th
kati45 [8]

Answer:

99.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

The lifespans of meerkats in a particular zoo are normally distributed. The average meerkat lives 10.4 years; the standard deviation is 1.9 years.

Use the empirical rule (68-95-99.7%) to estimate the probability of a meerkat living less than 16.1 years.

Solution:

The empirical rule states that for a normal distribution most of the data fall within three standard deviations (σ) of the mean (µ). That is  68% of the data falls within the first standard deviation (µ ± σ), 95% falls within the first two standard deviations (µ ± 2σ), and 99.7%  falls within the first three standard deviations (µ ± 3σ).

Therefore:

68% falls within (10.4 ± 1.9). 68% falls within 8.5 years to 12.3 years

95% falls within (10.4 ± 2*1.9). 95% falls within 6.6 years to 14.2 years

99.7% falls within (10.4 ± 3*1.9). 68% falls within 4.7 years to 16.1 years

Probability of a meerkat living less than 16.1 years = 100% - (100% - 99.7%)/2 = 100% - 0.15% = 99.85%
