Agent bourne transferred classified files from the cia mainframe into his flash drive. the drive has 36.5 megabytes on it before the transfer, and the transfer happened at a constant rate. after 125 seconds, there were 549 megabytes on the drive. the drive had a maximum capacity of 1000 megabytes. what was the speed of the transfer?

The speed was 4.1 MB/sec.

We first find the amount that was transferred within the first 125 seconds:

549-36.5=512.5

Now we divide this by 125, the number of seconds:
512.5/125 = 4.1

the law of definite proportions states samples of a compound will always contain the same proportion of elements by mass. in other words, a given compound will always contain the same elements in the same proportions by mass.the law of multiple proportions states when two elements combine with each other to form more than one compound, then the weights of one element that combine with a fixed weight of the other are in a ratio of small whole numbers.
