1. a) 4.8 lb

I) 8%

II) 0.384 lb

2. a) 12.5 lb

I) 8%

II) 1 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's begin by listing out the given variables:

mass of pesticide (m) = 12 lb,

40WP (40 weight percent) means the active ingredient comprises 40% of the total mass of the pesticide

a) amount of active ingredient = mass of the pesticide * weight percentage of the active ingredient

x = 12 * 40% = 12 * 0.4

x = 4.8 lb

I. If the soil has an absorption rate of 92%, that means 8% will go into the run-off

The percentage of active ingredient that will end up in the run-off = the percentage of the active ingredient (100%) - the absorption rate

y = (100 - 92)%

y = 8%

II. amount of of active ingredient that will end up in the run-off = amount of active ingredient * the percentage of active ingredient that will end up in the run-off

z = x * y = 4.8 * 8% = 4.8 * 0.08

z = 0.384 lb

2. Let's list out the variables given, we have:

mass of pesticide = 25 lb, weight percent of active ingredient = 50% = 0.5

amount of active ingredient = mass of the pesticide * weight percentage of the active ingredient

x = 25 * 0.5

x = 12.5 lb

I. If the soil has an absorption rate of 92%, that means 8% will go into the run-off

The percentage of active ingredient that will end up in the run-off = the percentage of the active ingredient (100%) - the absorption rate

y = (100 - 92)%

y = 8%

II. amount of of active ingredient that will end up in the run-off = amount of active ingredient * the percentage of active ingredient that will end up in the run-off

z = x * y = 12.5 * 8% = 12.5 * 0.08

z = 1 lb
