Answer:

16 yd.  This is the park's actual length.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios:

1 1/4 cm     8 yd

------------ = -----------

2 1/2 cm        x

Note that 2(1 1/4 cm) = 2 1/2 cm, so the above equation becomes:

 1       8 yd

----- = ---------

  2         x

Solving for x, we get x = 16 yd.  This is the park's actual length.

A recipe requires 5/6 of a cup of sugar. If mrs.Marina is going to make one half of the recipe, how much sugar does she need
NemiM [27]

Answer:

Half\ of\ the\ recipe\ requires\ \frac{5}{12}\ of\ a\ cup\ of\ sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

A\ recipe\ requires\ \frac{5}{6}\ of\ a\ cup\ of\ sugar.

i.e

\frac{5}{6}\ cup\ of\ sugar = 1\ recipe

As the  mrs.Marina is going to make one half of the recipe .

Thus\ multiply\ above\ by\ \frac{1}{2}.

We get

\frac{5\times 1}{6\times 2}\ cup\ of\ sugar = \frac{1}{2}\ recipe

solving the above

\frac{5}{12}\ cup\ of\ sugar = \frac{1}{2}\ recipe

Therefore\ half\ of\ the\ recipe\ requires\ \frac{5}{12}\ of\ a\ cup\ of\ sugar.

A chicken farmer also has cows for a total of 30 animals, and the animals have 66 legs in all. How many chickens does the farmer
hammer [34]

Answer:

27 chickens

Step-by-step explanation:

A chicken farmer also has cows for a total of 30 animals

Both animals have a total of 66 legs

Let a represent the number of chicken

Let b represent the number of cows

a + b= 30........equation 1

Since a chicken has only two legs and a cow has four leg then, the expression can be represented as

2a + 4b= 66........equation 2

From equation 1

a + b= 30

a = 30-b

Substitute 30-b for a in equation 2

2a + 4b= 66

2(30-b) + 4b= 66

60 - 2b + 4b= 66

60 + 2b= 66

2b= 66-60

2b= 6

b= 6/2

b= 3

Substitute 3 for b in equation 1

a + b = 30

a + 3=30

a= 30-3

a= 27

Hence the farmer has 27 chickens

Find the accumulated value of an investment of 12,000 at 8 % compounded semiannually for 11 years
AleksAgata [21]
The "compound amount" formula is A = P(1+r/n)^(nt),
where P=original investment, r=interest rate as a decimal fraction; n=number of compounding periods, and t=number of years.

Then A = $12000 * (1+0.08/2)^(2*11) 
             = $12000(1.04)^(22)  =  $28,439.03  (answer)
