Liam is making chocolate chip cookies. The recipe calls for 1 cup of sugar for every 3 cups of flour. Liam only has 2 cups of flour.
​How much sugar should Liam use?
Explain why your answer is correct.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2/3 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

2/3 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

If 3 cups of flour: 1 cup of sugar

2 cups of flour: x cup of sugar

Cross multiply

3x = 2 × 1

3         3

x = 2/3

My answer is correct because every 3 cups of flour is a full cup (1) but because he has 2 cups of flour, the cup of sugar is going to be less than 1 because 3 cups of flour is bigger than 2 cups of flour.

Mr. Wilson invested money in two accounts his total investment was $8000. If one account pays 6% and interest and the other pays 12% interest how much did he invest in each account if he earned a total of $600 in an interest in one year

Answers

Answer:

Mr. Wilson invested $ 2,000 in the 12% simple interest account and $ 6,000 in the 6% simple interest account.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Amount of the investment = $ 8,000  

Interest rate of the first account= 6% simple  

Interest rate of the second account= 12% simple  

Interest of the accounts in a year = $ 600  

2. How much did he invest in each account?

For answering the question, we will use the following equation:  

x = Amount invested in the first account  

8,000 - x = Amount invested in the second account  

0.06x + 0.12 * (8,000 - x) = 600

0.06x + 960 - 0.12x = 600

-0.06x = 600 - 960 (Subtracting 960 at both sides)

-0.06x = -360

x = -360/-0.06

x = 6,000 ⇒ 8,000 - x = 2,000  

Mr. Wilson invested $ 2,000 in the 12% simple interest account and $ 6,000 in the 6% simple interest account.

Which of the following exponential functions is represented by the graph? Question 7 options: A) ƒ(x) = (1∕5)x B) ƒ(x) = (1∕5)–x C) ƒ(x) = –5x D) ƒ(x) = 5–x

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The graph above

Required

Determine from the list of options, the function of the graph

To determine the function, we have to test each of the options

But first, we nees to write out the points on the graph

(1,5), (0,1), (-1,1/5) and (-2, 1/25)

A. [tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^x[/tex]

Point 1: When x = 1, f(x) = 5

[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^x[/tex]

[tex]f(1) = (\frac{1}{5})^1[/tex]

[tex]f(1) = (\frac{1}{5})[/tex]

There's no need to check further as the first point doesn't lie on the graph

B.  [tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex]

Point 1: When x = 1, f(x) = 5

[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex]

[tex]f(1) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-1}[/tex]

[tex]f(1) = 1/(\frac{1}{5})[/tex] --- Law of indices

[tex]f(1) = 1*(\frac{5}{1})[/tex]

[tex]f(1) = 1*5[/tex]

[tex]f(1) = 5[/tex]

Point 2: When x = 0, f(x) = 1

[tex]f(0) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-0}[/tex]

[tex]f(0) = (\frac{1}{5})^{0}[/tex]

[tex]f(0) = 1[/tex] --- The expression raise to power 0 is 1

Point 3: When x = -1, x = 1/5

[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex]

[tex]f(-1) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-(-1)}[/tex]

[tex]f(-1) = (\frac{1}{5})^{1}[/tex] ----- Law of indices

[tex]f(-1) = (\frac{1}{5})[/tex]

Point 4: When x = -2, x = 1/25

[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex]

[tex]f(-2) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-(-2)}[/tex]

[tex]f(-2) = (\frac{1}{5})^{2}[/tex] ----- Law of indices

[tex]f(-2) = \frac{1}{5} * \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]f(-2) = \frac{1}{25}[/tex]

There's no need to check other options as this function satisfy the 4 points on the graph;

Hence;

[tex]f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^{-x}[/tex] is the exponential function represented on the graph

Why or why not should we use the metric system in the U.S.A?
Make sure this your own opinion. 4 - 5 sentences please

Answers

Answer:

We should definitely be using the metric system in the U.S.A, as 94.7% of the world uses this system. The metric system, moreover the newer more polished system is exclusively the only system used in science. People who are unexperienced with the metric system, may encounter difficulties when dealing with real-life businesses and work that is publicly available globally, as if you need to measure a given contrivance, the metric system will be used. When countries follow a similar system to majority of the others, it will help make that country more open and less inclusive, providing a greater and more civil world.

Answer:

The biggest reasons the U.S. hasn’t adopted the metric system are simply time and money. When the Industrial Revolution began in the country, expensive manufacturing plants became a main source of American jobs and consumer products. Because the Imperial System (IS) of measurements was in place at this time, the machinery used in these factories was developed to size in IS units; all of the workers were trained to deal with IS units; and many products were made to feature IS units. Whenever the discussion of switching unit systems arose in Congress, the passage of a bill favoring the metric system was thwarted by big businesses and American citizens who didn’t want to go through the time-consuming and expensive hassle of changing the country’s entire infrastructure. Many also believed that the United States should keep its particular system, setting it apart from other countries and symbolizing its status as a leader rather than a follower.

4) Jacqueline, Hanry, and Stanley bought a pizza pie to share for dinner. Harry ate
1/2 of the pie, and then Jacqueline ate 1/2 of what was left. After Jacqueline
finished, Stanley ate 1/2 of what was left of the pie. What fractional part of the
pizza pie was left after Stanley finished eating? Help please

Answers

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so before i start i wanna say that this is gonna get confusing.....

Since the pizza is a whole quantity let us take it as 1.

Harry ate half of the pizza therefore the fraction that Harry ate = 1/2 of 1

= 1/2 × 1 = 1/2

Therefore fraction Harry ate = 1/2

Fraction of pizza left = 1 - 1/2 (LCM = 2)

= 1/2

Jacqueline ate 1/2 of what was left.

So, Fraction of pizza Jacqueline ate = 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/4

Therefore fraction of pizza left after both Harry and Jacqueline ate =

1 - (1/2 +1/4) = 1 - 3/4 (LCM = 4) = 1/4

Therfore fraction of pizza left = 1/4

Stanley ate 1/2 of what was left.

So, fraction of pizza Stanley ate = 1/2 × 1/4 = 1/8

Therefore, fraction of pizza left after all three of them ate =

1 - (1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8) = 1 - 7/8 (LCM = 8) = 1/8

I hope this helps .......i know this is rlly confusing but i dont know how else to put it : )

What is the expectation for a binomial distribution with p = 0.5 and n = 8?

Answers

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

P = probability of success = 0.5

n = number of trials = 8

The expected value of a binomial distribution with probability of success P and number of trials n is defined by:

E(n, p) = n * p

Therefore, expected value when P = 0.5 and n = 8

E(8, 0.5) = 8 × 0.5

= 4

The expected value of the binomial distribution is 4

A chef plans to mix 100% vinegar with Italian dressing. The Italian dressing contains 12% vinegar. The chef wants to make 320 milliliters of a mixture that contains 23%vinegar. How much vinegar and how much Italian dressing should she use?

Answers

Answer:

40 mL of vinegar,

280 mL of dressing

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v = the milliliters ( mL ) of 100% vinegar,

Then it should be that 320 - v = mL of dressing.

v + .12( 320 - v ) = .23( 320 ) - So in this case the mL of vinegar is associated with the percent of vinegar composed. 100 percent is, in other words, 1, and is multiplied by " v " the mL of 100% vinegar. 1 [tex]*[/tex] v is also v, and so is written as such in our equation. 0.12 is the decimal form of the 12% vinegar, associated with the mL of dressing - as the italian dressing is composed of 12% vinegar. 23% is 0.23 in decimal form, multiplied by the mL of of vinegar in the mixture, 320 mL.

Let's solve for the mL of 100% vinegar, subtracting from 320 to receive the mL of dressing,

v + .12( 320 - v ) = .23( 320 ) - Distribute " .12 "

v + 38.4 - 0.12v = .23( 320 ) - Multiply " 0.32 " by " 320 "

v + 38.4 - 0.12v = 73.6 - Combine like terms and add / subtract

0.88v = 35.2 - Divide 0.88 on either side

v = 40 mL of vinegar,

320 - v = 320 - 40 = 280 mL of dressing

FIRST GETS BRAINLLESTIf you spin the spinner below 80 times, which of the following outcomes are reasonable? Select all that apply. A) Lands on blue 43 times B) Lands on yellow 8 times C) Lands on red 33 times D) Lands on red 62 times

Answers

Answer:

A, B, C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

A) Lands on blue 43 times

B) Lands on yellow 8 times

C) Lands on red 33 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Blue is 1/2 of the spinner so theoretically is should be landed on 1/2 of the time which is 40/80 but experimentally, it can differ slightly. Using this same logic, it can be applied to yellow and red. Yellow is 1/8 of the spinner so it should be landed on about 10 out of the 80 times. Red is 3/8 of the spinner so it should be landed on approximately 30 out of 80 times.

A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 676 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Thursday. There were 74 fewer cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers.
How many hamburgers were sold on Thursday?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

no of hamburgers sold = 375

The number of hamburgers sold on Thursday was 375 hamburgers.

How to calculate the number of hamburgers sold?

Let us use 'A' to represent the number of hamburgers sold on Thursday and 'C' to represent the number of cheeseburgers sold.

Based on the provided information: Total number of hamburgers and cheeseburgers sold is 676: A + C = 676.

And the number of cheeseburgers sold = 74 less than the number of hamburgers, which is C = A - 74.

We shall solve this system of equations to find A.

Putting the value of C from the second equation into the first equation:

A + (A - 74) = 676.

Simplify:

2A - 74 = 676.

Add 74 to both sides:

2A = 750.

Divide both sides by 2:

A = 375.

Hence, 375 hamburgers were sold on Thursday.

If x2 + 6x + 8 = 0 , then x could equal which of the following?

Answers

Answer:

x = -4 , -2

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming "x2" is x^2. If the equation is x^2 + 6x + 8 = 0, then you first have to factor the equation x^2 + 6 + 8.

In order to do that, you would have to find the multiples of 1 (from x) and 8.

We can see that 1 * 1 is 1, so that is the only pair that would work for the problem. 4 * 2 is 8, but 8 * 1 is also 8. So, which set of numbers do we have to choose? It's actually really simple. You multiply the first set of numbers (1 and 1) with one of the sets from 8 ( 4 and 2 or 8 and 1). Then when you are finished multiplying them together, you add them together to see if they equal to the number in the middle (6x). So 1(x) * 4 is 4x, and 1(x) * 2 is 2x, and when we add the numbers together, we get 6x, which is the middle number, so therefore, 4 and 2 is the correct set of numbers, not 8 and 1, because if we multiply and add those together, we get 7x, not 6x.

After doing that, you have to put them like this:

(x + 4)(x + 2)

This is so when you multiply them together, you get the starting equation. But we have to solve for x. In order to do that, we have to plug that into the equation we started off with.

(x + 4)(x + 2)=0

Now we have to make x + 4 and x + 2 equal to 0, so x is -4 and -2. There are two correct answers. Hope this helps :)

Answer:

x is -2 and -4
