Given a baker needs 2 2/3 cups of flour for her recipe.

$2\frac{2}{3}=\frac{8}{3}$

Now, she only had 1/3 scoops.

The number of scoops she needs for the recipe is

$\begin{gathered} \frac{8}{3}\times\frac{1}{\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{8}{3}\times3 \\ =8 \end{gathered}$

Thus, the given options c is correct.

An angle measures 88° more than the measure of a complementary angle. what is the measure of each angle?

aleksandrvk [35]

Let one angle be x
Let second angle be 88+x
Sum of two complementary angles = 90°
x+ 88+ x = 90°
2x + 88 = 90
2x = 90 - 88 = 2
x = 2/2 = 1

First angle = x = 1°
Second angle = 88 + x = 88+1 = 89°
I hope it is helpful:D

Donnel practiced the piano 3 hours longer than Marcus. Together they practiced the piano for 11 hours. How many hours did each b

andriy [413]

Here is the equation: $x+(x+3)=11$ ⇒ $x+x+3=11$

You need to get "x" by itself so minus 3 from each side

$x+x+3-3=11-3$ ⇒ $x+x=8$ ⇒ $2x=8$

Divide 8 by 2

$8$ ÷ $2=4$

x=4

So each 4 is equivalent to 4

Lets check:

$4+(4+3)=11$ ⇒ $4+4+3=11$ ⇒ $11=11$

So that means that Marcus practiced the piano for 4 hours and Donnel practiced for 7

Can you please help with adjacent angles?

mojhsa [17]

Adjacent angles are angles that have a common side and a common vertex. The only one that fits this would be <FEC and <FEH because it shares the side of FE and common vertex of E. I hope this helps you. :)

Answer:

96 $cm^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how much additional wax was needed to make the taller candle, we determine the volume of each of the candles and find the difference in their volumes

<u>First Candle</u>

Height=12cm
Length=4 cm
Width= 6 cm

Volume=Height X Length X Width

=12 X 4 X 6

=288 $cm^3$

<u>Second Candle</u>

The second candle is 4cm higher

Height=12+4=16cm
Length=4 cm
Width= 6 cm

Volume=Height X Length X Width

=16 X 4 X 6

=384 $cm^3$

Difference in Volume = 384-288 =96 $cm^3$

Therefore, 96 $cm^3$ of additional wax was used to make the second candle.
