1 AnswerChemistry1 decade agoI need some help on a question about chemical analysis/weight percent?
I honestly have no idea how to go about starting this problem, but i do know that i need to convert from mass to moles first, and i already did that, but what do i do afterwards, here is the problem:
A sample of limestone and other soil materials is heated, and the limestone decomposes to give calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. A 1.506g sample of limestone containing material gives .711 g of CaO, in addition to gaseous CO2, after being heated at a high temperature. What is the weight percent of CaCO3 in the original sample

2 AnswersBiology1 decade agoTell Whether the function represents exponential growth or exponential decay?
f(x) = -2e^5x+1
f(x) = -1/4(e)^-3x
f(x) = 5(e)^(3x-9) -7
f(x) = 3/4e^(3x) -2
2 AnswersHomework Help1 decade agoHelp With Power Functions?
For the following problems use these functions:
f(x) = 5x^3/2 + x^1/2 ; g(x) = x ^1/2
f(g(x))= ?
f(f(x))= ?
(f-g)^-1(x) = ?
I've been workin on these problems for hours,but i just cant seem to figure them out, any and all help would be appreciated
1 AnswerHomework Help1 decade ago2 Genetic Questions punnet squares etc...?
1. In rabbits, spotted coat (S) is dominant to solid color coat (s), and Black (B) is dominant to brown (b). A brown spotted rabbit is mated to a solid black one and all the offspring are black spotted. What are the genotypes of the parents? What would be the appearance of the F2 generation if two of the F1 black spotted rabbits were mated?
2. Suppose that you learned that "shmoos" may have long, oval, or round bodies and that mating schmoos gave the following results:
long x oval ....... 52 long , 48 oval
long x round ...... 99 oval
oval x round ....... 51 oval, 50 round
oval x oval ........ 24 long, 53 oval, 27 round
What hypothesis about the inheritance of shmoo shape would be consistent with these results?
2 AnswersBiology1 decade agoQuestion about genetics. punnet squares etc...?
Data: ears erect (E) dominant over droopy ears (d)
barking (B) dominant over non-barking (b)
A dog homozygous for erect ears and for barking was crossed with a droopy eared dog that cannot bark. Work out the genotypes and phenotypes for the F1 generation.
Okay i would really like to know what the genotypes would be because this is what i think, but i'm not sure
EB for erect eared dog and db for the droopy dog, but i'm not sure
2 AnswersBiology1 decade agoHelp me solve this 3-variable system of equations?
The problem is
8x+2y-z=-25
3x-3y+5z=10
-5x+6y-2z=17
I can't get a good answer, it always turns out into a decimal for one of the variables, and i think that's wrong, can someone help me out here?
ok so i had
3*(8x+2y-z=-25)
2*(3x-3y+5z=10)
then i turned that into
24x+6y-3z=-75
6x-6y+10z=20
so i cancelled out 6x and 6y and did the addition stuff so i got
30x+7z=-55
then i did
-3*(8x+2y-z=-25)
and that turned into
-24x-6y+3z=75 and the othr equatin was
-5x+6y-2z=17
so i cancelled out the 6y's again and did the addition and got
-29x+3z=92?where did i go wrong and how can i fix it?
1 AnswerHomework Help1 decade agoSome more help with 3 variable equations please?
Ok so this time, i got a harder one,
3x+2y-8z=4
6x+4y-16z=8
12x+8y-32z=16
Ok, so my teacher said the most efficient way to do this problem was via the addition method, so i did it, but i realized that when it all comes down to the cancelling things out, everything cancels out, so i don't know what that is? is that all reall numbers or no solution? can someone help me here?

2 AnswersHomework Help1 decade agoGeomtery Question?
Suppose the Earth had a wire belt wrapped tightly around it at the equator. The length of this belt would be approximately 40,000km. Now, suppose we cut this belt and inserted an extra piece of wire 1metre long. If this new, longer belt is raised equidistantly all around the earth, how high above the ground would it be?
Also: What length of a piece of wire must we add to theEarth's belt so that, when it is raised equidistantly all around the Earth, an elephant 3m tall could walk under it?
All help would be greatly appreciated.

Imagine a room, it has a ceiling and a floor that's rectangular,
The locus of points is the distance from teh floor to the ceiling
Im starting to think it's a plane halfway between teh floor and the ceiling, but i don't know if it's a plane that stops, or goes on forever.

2.Locus of points = Distance from floor to ceiling. We have a room, it has a floor and a ceiling. What is the locus? (for this one, i think it's a plane, but if the plane goes on forever, i don't think the floor and ceiling will be equidistant from every point on the plane, so, ive figured the locus is either a plane in between the floor and ceiling that goes on forever, or a rectangle in between the floor and ceiling,)

To clarify, i want the locus of how the midpoint moved, not the locus of the segment Thank you.)
