Question

The density d of an object is found by dividing the mass m of the object by its volume V. Which of the following equations gives the mass m in terms of d and V ?

  1. m equals d V    
  2. m equals fraction numerator d over denominator V end fraction    
  3. m equals fraction numerator V over denominator d end fraction    
  4. m equals V plus d    

The correct answer is: m equals d V


    The density d of an object can be found by dividing the mass m of the object by its volume V. To express this expression symbolically as
    d equals fraction numerator m over denominator v end fraction
    Multiplying both sides by V or
    Solving this equation for m gives
    m = dV.
    Options B, C, and D are incorrect and will likely the result of errors made when translating the definition of density into an algebraic equation and errors made when solving this equation for m.
    If the equations given in choices B, C, and D are each solved for density d, none of the resulting equations are equivalent to d = mV

    A polling agency recently surveyed 1,000 adults who were selected at random from a large city and asked each of the adults, “Are you satisfied with the quality of air in the city?” Of those surveyed, 78 percent responded that they were satisfied with the quality of air in the city. Based on the results of the survey, which of the following statements must be true?
    I. Of all adults in the city, 78 percent are satisfied with the quality of air in the city.
    II. If another 1,000 adults selected at random from the city were surveyed, 78 percent of them would report they are satisfied with the quality of air in the city.
    III. If 1,000 adults selected at random from a different city were surveyed, 78 percent of them would report they are satisfied with the quality of air in the city.

    In mathematics, a survey is a technique for gathering data that involves posing a series of questions to participants to learn more about their attitudes and behaviors. It is the most typical and affordable method of data collection.
    For example, Knowledge of consumer purchasing patterns can be used to understand product demand better and increase sales.

    Q equals square root of fraction numerator 2 d K over denominator h end fraction end root
    The formula above is used to estimate the ideal quantity, Q, of items a store manager needs to order given the demand quantity, d; the setup cost per order, K; and the storage cost per item, h. Which of the following correctly expresses the storage cost per item in terms of the other variables?

    Note:
    Whenever there is an equation with a square root involved, first we try to remove that square root to get a clear picture of the equation. It is easier to operate on an equation with no square roots or log or inverse.
