"Alaina’s sugar cookie recipe calls for 2 1/4
cups of flour per batch. If she wants to make 2/3
a batch of cookies, how much flour should she use?"
1 1/2 Cups, if she wants to make less than the original recipe, she would need less flour, you have to divide.
Step 1: We make the assumption that 498 is 100% since it is our output value.
Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$x.
Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=498$100%=498.
Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=4$x%=4.
Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:
$100\%=498(1)$100%=498(1).
$x\%=4(2)$x%=4(2).
Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS
(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have
$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{498}{4}$
100%
x%=
498
4
Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields
$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{4}{498}$
x%
100%=
4
498
$\Rightarrow x=0.8\%$⇒x=0.8%
Therefore, $4$4 is $0.8\%$0.8% of $498$498.
Blaise Pascal (June 19, 1623 - August 19, 1662) was a great contributor to math, science, and philosophy, especially Christian philosophy. Interesting Blaise Pascal Facts: Pascal's early education in France was conducted at home by his father due to the prodigious talent and understanding he showed as a child. Did u mean pascal instead of pasical becaus ethere is no such thing. Hope I helped :)
Answer:
(a) 
(b) 0.7910
(c) 0.0401
(d) 0.6464
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>X</em> = amount of time that people spend at Grover Hot Springs.
The random variable <em>X</em> is normally distributed with a mean of 73 minutes and a standard deviation of 16 minutes.
(a)
The distribution of the random variable <em>X</em> is:
(b)
Compute the probability that a randomly selected person at the hot springs stays longer than 60 minutes as follows:
*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.
Thus, the probability that a randomly selected person at the hot springs stays longer than an hour is 0.7910.
(c)
Compute the probability that a randomly selected person at the hot springs stays less than 45 minutes as follows:
*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.
Thus, the probability that a randomly selected person at the hot springs stays less than 45 minutes is 0.0401.
(d)
Compute the probability that a randomly person spends between 60 and 90 minutes at the hot springs as follows:
*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.
Thus, the probability that a randomly person spends between 60 and 90 minutes at the hot springs is 0.6464
20x + 25 = 165
x represents the number of bags. You can solve the equation to make sure the answer is 7.
20x + 25 = 165
Subtract 25 from both sides.
20x = 140
Divide 20 off of both sides.
x = 7
