Initially, milk needed = 3 3/4 = 15/4

If it doubles, 15/4 * 2 = 30/4 = 15/2 in fraction form

OR 7.5 in decimal form

OR 7 1/2 in mixed form

What is 1/4 + 5/6 equals what

Alex

Answer:

1 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find a common denominator that fits both 1/4 and 5/6. We know that 12 fits both, so we multiply each to get it, for example:

1/4 = 3/12

5/6 = 10/12

Now we say 3/12 + 10/12 = 13/12 and simplify to get 1 1/12

1. The most massive planet in the solar system, Jupiter, has a mass of about 1,898,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg. Estimate

UNO [17]

Answer:

D. $2*10^{27} kg$

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass of Jupiter is given as 1,898,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg

Estimating this to the nearest whole number would be = 2,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg (rounding up the the "1,898")

To express this in scientific notation form, simply count how many zeros we have to the nearest whole number, 2.

We have 27 zeros there.

Therefore, we would multiply the whole number, 2, by 10 raise to the power of 27.

An estimate of the mass of Jupiter = $2*10^{27} kg$

Find the value of $1000 deposited for 10 years in an account paying 6% annual interest compound

Romashka [77]

Answer:

You have to use the formula for compound interest which is: A=P(1+r/n)^nt

The Givens info is:

A=?

P=1000

r= 6% = 0.06 (convert into decimal)

n=12(# of interest periods: since it is monthly n=12)

t=10

Now your formula should look like this:

A= 1000*(1+(0.06/12))^12*10

A=1000*(1.005)^120

A=1000*(1.819396734)

A=$1819.40

used books cost $2.27 each. which represents the total number of books that can be purchased for $10?

siniylev [52]

Answer:

4 books

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost for one used = $2.27

The question requires you to find the number of books that could be purchased with $10

Let assume the cost for a single used book to be $ t

If you have $ x in your pocket then the number of books you can purchase with $ x will be;

number of books= $ x/ $t.............................(a)

Applying this expression to the question;

$t= $2.27

$ x= $10

number of books = $10/$2.27 = 4.405 = 4 books
