Answer:

Approx 8000 to 10,000 taste buds are present and these contains five taste receptors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Taste buds have microscopic hairs called microvilli which is very sensitive. These tiny hairs sends message to the brain about various tastes. So we may know different taste like it is salty, sour, bitter or sweet.The human tongue have 8000 to 10,000(approx.) taste buds are present.

There are five taste receptors are present on the taste buds like sweet, salty, bitter, sour and umami. Both sour and salty taste detected through ion channel, while sweet, bitter and umami taste is detected by G-proteins coupled taste receptor.

A cookie recipe calls for 1/3 of a cup of sugar and 1 1/2 cups of flour. What is the unit rate of flour to sugar for the cookie

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Rate = 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

A cookie recipe calls for 1/3 of a cup of sugar and 1 1/2 cups of flour.

We need to find the unit rate of flour to sugar for the cookie recipe. It can be calculated as follows :

$U=\dfrac{\text{No of cups of flour}}{\text{No of cups of sugar}}\\\\=\dfrac{1\dfrac{1}{2}}{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\\=\dfrac{\dfrac{3}{2}}{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{2}\times 3\\\\=4.5$

So, the unit rate of flour to sugar for the cookie recipe is 4.5

Need help simple explanation if possible

Answer:

m < A = 60º

m < B = 30º

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sides on this triangle are: 6, $6\sqrt{3}$ , and 12

Any triangle with the angles of 30º - 60º - 90º always has side lengths in this proportion:

x, $x\sqrt{3}$ , 2x

We can line this up with the given sides. If x is 6, then 2x would be 12.

x : $x\sqrt{3}$ : 2x = 6 : $6\sqrt{3}$ : 12

Angle B is across from 6, the shortest side. That also means that it corresponds to x, or the smallest angle in the proportion, 30º.

m < B = 30º

Solving for < A:

Method 1) Sum of Angles in a Triangle

Since we already know that one angle is right and therefore 90º and m < B is 30º, we can subtract these from the total sum of angle measures in a triangle to get the last angle, < A.

180º - 90º - 30º = 60º

m < A = 60º

Method 2) Using the second part of the proportion

Since m < A is across from the second largest side, we know that it is equal to $x\sqrt{3}$ ( $6\sqrt{3}$ in this question) or 60º in the angle proportion.

This means that m < A = 60º

Let me know if you have any questions!

if there are 12 dogs that sell for $104 and 8 cats that sell for $25. At the end of the day there are 4 dogs left and 5 cats lef

Vinil7 [7]

Initially there were 12 dogs

dogs left at the end of day =4

number of dogs sold=12-4=8

price of one dog=$104

price of 8 dogs = 104*8= $832

initially there were 8 cats

cats left at the end of day =5

number of cats sold =8-5=3

price of one cat= $25

price of 3 cats =25*3= $75

ratio of sales for dogs to cats = 832/75
