Answer:

  1 7/8 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount Yuan has left can be found by multiplying the original amount by the fraction he has left.

__

<h3>used</h3>

After using 1/2 of the broth for soup, the fraction remaining is ...

  1 -1/2 = 1/2

The amount Yuan used for gravy is 1/4 of this, or ...

  (1/4)(1/2) = 1/8 . . . of the original amount of broth

The total fraction Yuan used was ...

  fraction used = fraction for soup + fraction for broth = 1/2 +1/8 = 5/8

<h3>remaining</h3>

Then the fraction remaining is ...

  fraction remaining = 1 - fraction used = 1 - 5/8 = 3/8.

The amount remaining is this fraction of the original amount:

  (3/8)(5 quarts) = 15/8 quarts = 1 7/8 quarts . . . . remaining

Find x so that l || m. state the converse used.
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

x = 12

Converse: Alternate Interior Angles Converse

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Alternate Interior Angles Converse, if (14x - 23) = (9x + 37), then l || m.

Use the equation to solve for x as follows:

14x - 23 = 9x + 37

Subtract 9x from each side

14x - 23 - 9x = 9x + 37 - 9x

5x - 23 = 37

Add 23 to both sides

5x - 23 + 23 = 37 + 23

5x = 60

Divide both sides by 5

\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{60}{5}

x = 12
