Question

A scientist performs an experiment to produce a compound by adding various amounts of a catalyst to a chemical reaction. Her data can be modeled by the formula A=0.06c+ 3.69 where A represents the amount of the​ compound, in​ grams, produced when c milligrams of the catalyst are added to the reaction. According to the​ formula, how much compound is produced when 300milligrams of catalyst are​ added?

Answer 1

Answer: 21.69 g

Explanation:

Find the amount of compound produced when 300 mg of catalyst is added

Given:

Equation: A = 0.06c + 3.16

c = 300 mg

Substituting c = 300 into the equation and solving for A

A = 0.06 * 300 +3.69

A = 18 + 3.69

A = 21.69

Therefore 21.69 g of compound will be produced
