Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver. How many grams of a 90% silver alloy would you need in order to mix it with sterling silver to obtain 500 grams of a 91% silver alloy.

Answers

Answer 1

200 grams of sterling silver is needed to make the 91℅ alloy

An equation is mathematical expression that contains an equals symbol. Equations are contain algebra. Algebra is used in maths when you do not know the exact number in a calculation.

given, x + y =500

The number of grams of pure silver in x plus the number of grams of pure silver in y is equal to the number of grams of pure silver in the 500 grams.

The pure silver is given in percentage forms.

Hence, 92.5% (x) + 90% (y) =91% (500)

Substitute y by 500−x in the last equation to write

92.5% (x) + 90% (500−x) =91% (500)

Simplify and solve

92.5x+45000−90x=45500

x=200 grams.

Hence, 200 grams of Sterling Silver is needed to make the 91% alloy.

A boy earned $435, $230, and $562 for 3 consecutive months. How much did he earn in the fourth month so that he gets an average earning of $500 in these 4 months?

Answers

Answer:

The boy earned $773 in the fourth month.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, we need to find the total amount of money he needs so that the average of the 4 months would be 500. We can do this by multiplying 500 and 4 (essentially, we are working backward when trying to find the average) [tex]500*4=2000[/tex] So, we know that the boy needs $2000 total by the end of the fourth month to make the 4-month average $500.

2) Now, we know how much the boy made for the first 3 consecutive months, so add those numbers up. [tex]435+230+562=1227[/tex] So within the first 3 months, the boy made $1227.

3) Finally, we know how much money the boy needs by the end of the fourth month and how much he made by the third, so to figure out how much he earned in the fourth month, we can simply subtract $1227 from $2000. [tex]2000-1227=773[/tex]

what is the square root of 10,000​

Answers

100 and -100 are the two solutions for the square root of 10,000

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of 10000 can be written as (10000)1/2. Thus,

(10000)^/2 = (100 × 100)^1/2

(10000)^1/2 = [(100)2]^1/2

(10000)^1/2 = (100)^2/2

(10000)^1/2 = (100)^1

So,

√10000 = 100

A study showed that low-intensity vibration therapy reduces pain levels in patients with fibromyalgia. During each session in the study, vibration pads were placed on the pain site indicated by the patient. Pain reduction was measured through self-reporting after each session.

Another study is being designed to examine whether low-intensity vibration therapy also reduces pain in patients suffering from ruptured disks in the lumbar region of the back. Three hundred male patients are subjects in the new study.

Part A: What is an appropriate design for the new study? Include treatments used, method of treatment assignment, and variables that should be measured. (4 points)

Part B: If the study consisted of 150 male and 150 female patients instead of 300 male patients, would you change the study design? If so, how would you modify your design ? If not, why not? (4 points)

Part C: Could your design be double-blind? Explain. (2 points)

Answers

Answer:

Part A: The appropriate design would be: 300 male patients chosen should be suffering from ruptured disks in the lumbar region of the back, with similar magnitude of pain (or segregating these 300 as per magnitude of pain)


Part B: If the study consisted of 150 male and 150 female patients instead of 300 malepatients, I would change the study design, because the pain level could endure for femalecould vary compare to male.


Part C:Yes, I could design a double-blind, because it is a very good ways to show theeffect of the therapy because neither the participants nor the researchers knows whichgroups of participants is assigned to which treatment, and who are the groups of participant receiving it.

Since we know U is the midpoint, we can say TU=
substituting in our values for each we get:

? =12x−1

Solve for x
We now want to solve for x.

−4x+11=−1

−4x= ?

x= 3


Solve for TU, UV, and TV
This is just the first part of our question. Now we need to find TU, UV, and TV. Lets start with TU and UV.

TU=8x+11 We know that x=3 so let’s substitute that in.

TU=8(?)+11

TU= ?

We will do the same for UV. From our knowledge of midpoint, we know that TU should equal UV, however let’s do the math just to confirm.

UV=12x−1 We know that x=3 so let’s substitute that in.

UV=12(3)−1

UV= 35

Using the segment addition postulate we know:

TU+UV=TV

35+35=TV

TV= 70

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

TU = 35

UV = 35

TV = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

As U is the midpoint of TV:

⇒ TU = UV

⇒ 8x + 11 = 12x - 1

⇒ 8x + 11 - 11 = 12x - 1 - 11

⇒ 8x = 12x - 12

⇒ 8x - 12x = 12x - 12 - 12x

⇒ -4x = -12

⇒ -4x ÷ -4 = -12 ÷ -4

x = 3

Substitute the found value of x into the expression for TU:

⇒ TU = 8x + 11

⇒ TU = 8(3) + 11

⇒ TU = 24 + 11

TU = 35

Using the transitive property of equality:

As UV = TU and TU = 15 then UV = 35

Using the segment addition postulate:

⇒ TV = TU + UV

⇒ TV = 35 + 35

TV = 70

8x+11=12x-111+1=12x-8x4x=12x=3

Hence

TU=8(3)+11=35UV=12(3)-1=35TV=2(35)=70

x = - 6 , x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

the absolute value function always gives a positive value but the expression inside can be positive or negative , that is

2x + 2 = 10 or - (2x + 2) = 10

solving both

2x + 2 = 10 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 4

or

- (2x + 2) = 10

- 2x - 2 = 10 ( add 2 to both sides )

- 2x = 12 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = - 6
