As a laboratory assistant, you measure chemicals using the metric system. for your current research, you need to measure out 45 grams of sodium chloride. the bottle you are using lists the amount in ounces. about how many ounces of sodium chloride will you need?

There is 1.587 ounces of sodium chloride that he will need.

Since we have given that

Quantity of sodium chloride in grams = 45 grams

We need to find the number of ounces of sodium chloride.

As we know that

1 ounce = 28.35 gram

So, 1 gram =

So, 45 grams =

Hence, there is 1.587 ounces of sodium chloride that he will need.

Step-by-step explanation: Since we have given that

Quantity of sodium chloride in grams = 45 grams

We need to find the number of ounces of sodium chloride.

As we know that

1 ounce = 28.35 gram

So, 1 gram =

So, 45 grams =

Hence, there is 1.587 ounces of sodium chloride that he will need.

she gotta workk that a 2

step-by-step explanation:

starting with:    

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7   

5 + x - 12 - x = 2x - 7 - x (subtract x from both sides)   

5 - 12 = x - 7 (combine and cancel x's from both sides)   

5 - 12 + 7 = x - 7 + 7 (add 7 to both sides)   

0 = x (add numbers together on both sides)       

so in order for the equation to be true, x must be 0.   

trying x = -0.5   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + -0.5 - 12 = 2(-0.5) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + -0.5 - 12 = -1 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-7.5 = -8 (did addition on both sides)       

since -7.5 is obviously not equal to -8, the value of -0.5 for x is wrong.   

trying x = 0   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + 0 - 12 = 2(0) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + 0 - 12 = 0 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-7 = -7 (did addition on both sides)       

since -7 equals -7, that demonstrates that the value of 0 for x is correct.   

trying x = 1   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + 1 - 12 = 2(1) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + 1 - 12 = 2 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-6 = -5 (did addition on both sides)       

since -6 is obviously not equal to -5, the value of 1 for x is wrong.
