Harold cut 18 and a half
inches off a rope that was 60 inches long. How is the length of the remaining rope in inches written in decimal form?

Answers

Answer 1

The length of the remaining rope is 41.5 inches.

What is a word problem?

A word problem is a verbal description of a problem situation. It consists of few sentences describing a 'real-life' scenario where a problem needs to be solved by way of a mathematical calculation.

For the given situation,

Harold cut 18 and a half inches off a rope that was 60 inches long.

Let the remaining length of the rope be x.

This can be written as,

⇒ [tex]x=60-18.5[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x=41.5[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the length of the remaining rope is 41.5 inches.

A solution has a pH of 10.3. When a solid is dissolved in the solution, the pH changes to 9.6. What can be inferred from this observation? (2 points)

Answers

Answer:

We see that the original material was a base, after adding the other material into the base it reduces its basicity.

So we can infer that the substance added was an acid as if we add bases it will increase the basicity.

4. If 100.0g of nitrogen gas (N2) is reacted with 100.0g of hydrogen gas (H2) to form NH3. What are the limiting and excess reactants?

Hint: Convert grams to moles for each reactant and then convert to moles of NH3. You need your balanced equation from answer 1 to determine the mole relationship between each reactant and the product NH3. Use the periodic table to determine the molar mass of all chemical formulas. Fill in the “?” blanks below to show your work.

Balanced equation: 1N2 (g) + 3H2(g)  2NH3(g)

Molar mass of H2 = g/mol

100.0"g " "H" _2×(1"mol " "H" _2)/( ? "g " "H" _2 )×(" ? mol N" "H" _3)/(" ? mol " "H" _2 )= ? "mol N" "H" _3

A. What is the excess reactant? Hint: it is the reactant above that makes the most amount of product

B. What is the limiting reactant? Hint: it is the reactant above that makes the least amount of product

C. What is the theoretical yield of ammonia of the reaction?
Molar mass of NH3 = g/mol

Nitrogen (N) has a molar mass of about 14.007 g/mol, so you have

100.0 g N₂ = (100.0 g) • (1/28.014 mol/g) ≈ 3.570 mol N₂

Hydrogen (H) has a molar mass of about 1.008 g/mol, so

100.0 g H₂ = (100.0 g) • (1/2.016 mol/g) ≈ 49.60 mol H₂

In the balanced reaction, 1 mole of N₂ reacts with 3 moles of H₂ to make 2 moles of NH₃. We have

3.570 • 3 ≈ 10.71

so the reaction would use up all 3.570 mol N₂ and 10.71 mol H₂ to produce about 7.139 mol NH₃.

(A) H₂ is the excess reactant. There is an excess of 49.60 - 10.71 ≈ 38.89 mol H₂.

(B) N₂ is the limiting reactant. All of the N₂ gets consumed in the reaction.

(C) NH₃ has a molar mass of (14.007 + 3 • 1.008) g/mol = 17.031 g/mol. This reaction would theoretically yield about 7.139 mol NH₃, or

7.139 mol NH₃ = (7.139 mol) • (17.031 g/mol) ≈ 121.6 g NH₃

Answers

Answer:

a = -1.6b

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2.3a + -1.8a + 3.5b + -2.7b = 0

Combine like terms: 2.3a + -1.8a = 0.5a

0.5a + 3.5b + -2.7b = 0

Combine like terms: 3.5b + -2.7b = 0.8b

0.5a + 0.8b = 0

Solving

0.5a + 0.8b = 0

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-0.8b' to each side of the equation.

0.5a + 0.8b + -0.8b = 0 + -0.8b

Combine like terms: 0.8b + -0.8b = 0.0

0.5a + 0.0 = 0 + -0.8b

0.5a = 0 + -0.8b

Remove the zero:

0.5a = -0.8b

Divide each side by '0.5'.

a = -1.6b

Answer:

quiz let or brainy helps me just look up the chapter question and you will get the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps

f(x) can be considered as a linear function because of the following conclusions -

1 → For every 1 minute interval, the depth of water in the wading pool increases by the same amount of 11 gallons/minute.

2 → The slope of the function is constant.

What is the general equation of a straight line?

The general equation of a straight line is -

y = mx + c

Where -

[m] is the slope of the line.

[c] is the y - intercept.

Given is the following statement representing a function - f(x), that models the depth of water in a wading pool that is filling at a rate of 11 gallons per minute.

Assume that we represent the depth of the water rate by [y] and the time in minutes by [m]. We can write the function f(x) as -

y = f(x) = 11m

This is a linear relation and its graph will be a straight line passing through origin.

From this equation, we can make the following conclusions -

1 → For every 1 minute interval, the depth of water in the wading pool increases by the same amount of 11 gallons/minute.

2 → The slope of the function is constant.

Therefore, f(x) can be considered as a linear function because of the following conclusions -

1 → For every 1 minute interval, the depth of water in the wading pool increases by the same amount of 11 gallons/minute.

2 → The slope of the function is constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is Option B.

The equation which does not satisfy the relation is 3 ( x + 6 ) = 30

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the number of x in the diagram be = 3

So , the total number of x = 3x

The sum of the values in the box = 30

So , the equation will be

6 + x + x + x = 30

On simplifying the equation , we get

6 + 3x = 30   be equation (1)

a)

6 + 3x = 30

The equation satisfies

b)

3 ( x + 6 ) = 30

On simplifying the equation , we get

3x + 18 = 30

The equation does not satisfy

c)

3x = 30 - 6

Adding 6 on both sides of the equation , we get

3x + 6 = 30

The equation satisfies

d)

30 = 3x + 6

The equation satisfies

Hence , the equation which does not satisfy the relation is 3 ( x + 6 ) = 30

Answer:

1. Steve's age is 18 and Anne's age is 8.

2. Max's age is 17 and Bert's age is 11.

3. Sury's age is 19 and Billy's age is 9.

4. The man's age is 30 and his son's age is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let us assume that:

S = Steve's age now

A = Anne's age now

Therefore, in four years, we have:

S + 4 = (A + 4)2 - 2

S + 4 = 2A + 8 - 2

S + 4 = 2A + 6 .................. (1)

Three years ago, we have:

S - 3 = (A - 3)3

S - 3 = 3A - 9 ................................ (2)

From equation (2), we have:

S = 3A - 9 + 3

S = 3A – 6 …………. (3)

Substitute S from equation (3) into equation (1) and solve for A, we have:

3A – 6 + 4 = 2A + 6

3A – 2A = 6 + 6 – 4

A = 8

Substitute A = 8 into equation (3), we have:

S = (3 * 8) – 6

S = 24 – 6

S = 18

Therefore, Steve's age is 18 while Anne's age is 8.

2. Let us assume that:

M = Max's age now

B = Bert's age now

Therefore, five years ago, we have:

M - 5 = (B - 5)2

M - 5 = 2B - 10 .......................... (4)

A year from now, we have:

(M + 1) + (B + 1) = 30

M + 1 + B + 1 = 30

M + B + 2 = 30 .......................... (5)

From equation (5), we have:

M = 30 – 2 – B

M = 28 – B …………………… (6)

Substitute M from equation (6) into equation (4) and solve for B, we have:

28 – B – 5 = 2B – 10

28 – 5 + 10 = 2B + B

33 = 3B

B = 33 / 3

B = 11

Substituting B = 11 into equation (6), we have:

M = 28 – 11

M = 17

Therefore, Max's age is 17 while Bert's age is 11.

3. Let us assume that:

S = Sury's age now

B = Billy's age now

Therefore, now, we have:

S = B + 10 ................................ (7)

Next year, we have:

S + 1 = (B + 1)2

S + 1 = 2B + 2 .......................... (8)

Substituting S from equation (7) into equation (8) and solve for B, we have:

B + 10 + 1 = 2B + 2

10 + 1 – 2 = 2B – B

B = 9

Substituting B = 9 into equation (7), we have:

S = 9 + 10

S = 19

Therefore, Sury's age is 19 while Billy's age is 9.

4. Let us assume that:

M = The man's age now

S = His son's age now

Therefore, now, we have:

M = 3S ................................... (9)

Five years ago, we have:

M - 5 = (S - 5)5

M - 5 = 5S - 25 ................ (10)

Substituting M from equation (9) into equation (10) and solve for S, we have:

3S - 5 = 5S – 25

3S – 5S = - 25 + 5

-2S = - 20

S = -20 / -2

S = 10

Substituting S = 10 into equation (9), we have:

M = 3 * 10

M = 30

Therefore, the man's age is 30 and his son's age is 10.
