Answer:

2.3 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

This is called finding the volume by displacement. By subtracting the final volume and the initial volume you can determine how much the volume changed when the object was added. That change in voulme represents the volume of the object, so in this case:\

14.5-12.2 = 2.3 mL

A box of Munchkins contains chocolate and glazed donut holes. If Jacob ate 2 chocolate

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

24 munchkins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C be the number of chocolate and D be number of glazed donut holes in the original box.

We are told if Jacob ate 2 chocolate munchkins, then 1/11 of the remaining Munchkins would be chocolate. We can represent this information as:

$C-2=\frac{1}{11}*(C+D-2)...(1)$

We are also told if he instead added 4 glazed Munchkins to the original box, 1/7 of the Munchkins would be chocolate. We can represent this information as:

$C=\frac{1}{7}*(C+D+4)...(2)$
