You split the abs val into a pos and neg soln to write
x–5 = 3 and x–5 = –3
x = 8 and x = 2
Well I really can't explain but the answer is 0.32 square millimeters...so sorry if this didn't help.
Mr. Smith has an online cooking show. Before he films an episode about baking the perfect pound cake, he prepares his ingredients. His recipe calls for 2 1 /2 cups of sugar for the cake and 1 1/ 4 cups of sugar for the vanilla glaze. How many 1 /4 -cup scoops of sugar does he need? Write your answer as a whole number, fraction, or mixed number. Simplify any fractions.
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given
Mr. Smith's recipe calls for 2 1/2 cups of sugar for the cake and 1 1/4 cups of sugar for the vanilla glaze.
The total amount of sugar he would need
2 1/2 + 1 1/4
= (2 + 1) + (1/2 + 1/4)
= 3 3/4 cups of sugar.
We need this amount of sugar in 1/4 cup scoops.
This is calculated as:
let x be the number of scoops needed
x * 1/4 = 3 3/4
x* 1/4 = 15/4 ( 3 3/4 = 15/4)
x= 15
Therefore, he would be needing 15 , 1/4 cup scoop of sugar
