A recipe that serves 6 uses 1 1/2 cups of flour. How many cups are needed to serve 15

irinina [24]

Answer:

3 3/4 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make a proportion and solve. 1 and 1/2 equals 1.5. Next make the proportion. Proportion= 1.5/6 to x/15. then multiply 1.5 times 15 and then divide by 6.

Suppose an automotive repair company wants to determine the current percentage of customers who keep up with regular vehicle mai

Nina [5.8K]

Answer: 1692

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the sample size :

$n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2$

Given : Confidence level : $(1-\alpha)=0.90$

⇒ significance level = $\alpha= 0.10$

z-value for 90% confidence interval (using z-table)= $z_{\alpha/2}=1.645$

Prior estimate of the population proportion (p) of customers who keep up with regular vehicle maintenance is unknown.

Let we take p= 0.5

Margin of error : E= 2%=0.02

Now, the required sample size will be :

$n=0.5(1-0.5)(\dfrac{1.645}{0.02})^2$

Simplify , we get

$n=(0.25)(6765.0625)=1691.265625\approx1692$

Hence, the required sample size = 1692

Answer: " 2x (2x - 1) (x + 1) " .

______________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

______________________________________

Given:

f(x) = 9x³ + 2x² − 5x + 4 ;

g(x) = 5x³ − 7x + 4 ;

______________________________________

What is: f(x) − g(x) ?

______________________________________

Plug in: " 9x³ + 2x² − 5x + 4 " for: " f(x) " ;

and: " (5x³ − 7x + 4) " ; for: "g(x)" ;

______________________________________

→ " f(x) − g(x) =

" 9x³ + 2x² − 5x + 4 − (5x³ − 7x + 4) " .

______________________________________

Rewrite this expression as:

→ " 9x³ + 2x² − 5x + 4 − 1(5x³ − 7x + 4) " .

→ {since: " 1 " ; multiplied by "any value" ; is equal to that same value.}.

______________________________________

Now, let us example the following portion of the expression:

______________________________________

" − 1(5x³ − 7x + 4) "

_____________________________________

Note the "distributive property" of multiplication:

______________________________________

→ a(b + c) = ab + ac ;

______________________________________

Likewise:

→ a(b + c + d) = ab + ac + ad .

______________________________________

As such:

______________________________________

→ " − 1(5x³ − 7x + 4) " ;

______________________________________

= (-1 * 5x³) + (-1 * 7x) + (-1 * 4) ;

= - 5x³ + (-7x) + (-4) ;

= - 5x³ − 7x − 4 ;

_____________________________________

Now, add the "beginning portion of the expression" ; that is:

" f(x) " ; to the expression ; which is:

→ 9x³ + 2x² − 5x + 4 ;

→ as follows:

_______________________________________

→ 9x³ + 2x² − 5x + 4 − 5x³ − 7x − 4 ;

→ {Note that the: " - " sign; that is;

the "negative sign", in the term: " -5x³ " ;

becomes a: " − " sign; that is; a "minus sign" .}.

______________________________________

Now, combine the "like terms" of this expression; as follows:

+ 9x³ − 5x³ = + 4x³ ;

− 5x − 7x = − 2x ;

+ 4 − 4 = 0 ;

______________________________________

and we have:

______________________________________

→ " 4x³ + 2x² − 2x ".

______________________________________

Now, to write this answer in "factored form" :

Note that among all 3 (three) terms in this expression, each term has a factor of "2" . The lowest coefficient among these 3 (three) terms is "2" ; so we can "factor out" a "2".

Also, each of the 3 (three) terms in this fraction is a coefficient to a variable. That variable takes the form of "x". The term in this expression with the variable, "x"; with the lowest degree has the variable: "x" (i.e. "x¹ = x" ) ; so we can "factor out a "2x" (rather than just the number, "2".).

So, by factoring out a "2x" ; take the first term [among the 3 (three) terms in the expression] —which is: "4x³ " .

2x * (?) = 4x³ ? ;'

↔ $\frac{4x^3}{2x} =$ ? ;

→ 4/2 = 2 ;

$\frac{x^{3}}{x} = \frac{x^3}{x^1} = x^{(3-1)} = x^{2}$ ;

As such: 2x * (2x²) = 4x³ ;

___________________________________________

Now, by factoring out a "2x" ; take the second term [among the 3 (three) terms in the expression] — which is: "2x² " .

2x * (?) = 2x² ? ;

↔ $\frac{2x^{2}}{2x} =$ ?

→ 2/2 = 1 ;

→ $\frac{x^{2}}{x} = \frac{x^2}{x^1}= x^{(2-1)} } = x^1 = x$ ;

As such: 2x * (x) = 2x²

__________________________________________

Now, by factoring out a "2x" ; take the third term [among the 3 (three) terms in the expression] — which is: " − 2x " .

2x * (?) = - 2x ;

↔ $\frac{-2x}{2x} =$ -1 ;

As such: 2x * (-1) = − 2x .

__________________________________________

So:

__________________________________________

Given the simplified expression:

→ " 4x³ + 2x² − 2x " ;

We can "factor out' a: " 2x " ; and write the this answer is: "factored form" ; as:

__________________________________________

"2x (2x² + x − 1 ) . "

Now, we can further factor the:

" (2x² + x − 1) " ; portion;

Note: "(2x² + x - 1)" =

2x² + 2x - 1x -1 = (2x -1) + x (2x - 1 ) =

(2x - 1) ( x + 1)

_______________________________________

Now, bring down the "2x" ; and write the Full "factored form" ; as follows:

_______________________________________

→ " 2x (2x - 1) (x + 1) " .

_______________________________________

Hope this helps!

Wishing you the best!
