50% is equal to 5/10 so 5/10 were party cakes 1/5x2=2/10 so 2/10 were fruit cakes 5/10+2/10=7/10 so 10/10 which is 100% of all cakes 10/10-7/10=3/10 so 3/10 of the cakes were sponge cakes.

in a window display at a flower shop, there are 3 spots for 1 plant each. to fill these 3 spots, adam has 7 plants to select fro
Andrej [43]

Answer: 210

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the number of combinations of n things taken r at a time is given by :-

C(n,r)=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

So, number of ways to select 3 plants out of 7 = C(7,3)=\dfrac{7!}{3!4!}=\dfrac{7\times6\times5\times4!}{6\times 4!}=7\times5=35

Also number of ways to arrange them in 3 positions = 3! = 6

Now , total number of arrangements with 1 plant in each spot = (number of ways to select 3 plants out of 7) x (number of ways to arrange them in 3 positions)

= 35 x 6

=210

Hence, required number of ways = 210

Twice the product of the cube of a and the square of b
arlik [135]

For this case we have to rewrite the given expression algebraically:

the cube of a, is represented as: a ^ 3

the square of b, is represented as:b ^ 2

Thus, the product of both expressions is:

(a ^ 3 * b ^ 2)

And twice the product is represented as:

2 (a ^ 3 * b ^ 2)

Answer:

2 (a ^ 3 * b ^ 2)

Does anyone know what the inequality would be?
dsp73

Let x = number of batches.

So for every batch, you need 2 cups of flour, and you have 20 cups of flour. You cannot make a batch if you don't have the sufficient amount. So using our information, our inequality is 2x \leq 20 . However, this can be further simplified.

For this inequality, divide both sides by 2, and <u>your inequality is x\leq 10.</u> <u>In context, you can make up to 10 batches of cookies.</u>
