A chicken recipe calls for 1/4 T of paprika for each 1/2 T of garlic powder. If you use 3/4 T of paprika, how much garlic?

Answer:

1 1/2 T garlic

Step-by-step explanation:

You used 3 times as much paprika as the recipe asks for. Therefore, to keep the ratio the same, you also have to multiply the amount of garlic by 3. So, you need 3/2 or 1 1/2 T of garlic.

Which oddered pair is the the system of equation?
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

(3, -9)

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
  • Solving systems of equations by graphing

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define systems</u>

-5x - 3y = 12

y = x - 12

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

<em>Substitution</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>y</em>:                              -5x - 3(x - 12) = 12
  2. Distribute -3:                                 -5x - 3x + 36 = 12
  3. Combine like terms:                     -8x + 36 = 12
  4. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                               -8x = -24
  5. Isolate <em>x</em>:                                        x = 3

<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>

  1. Define original equation:                    y = x - 12
  2. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                                     y = 3 - 12
  3. Subtract:                                               y = -9

<u>Step 4: Graph systems</u>

Please help and explain.
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula, (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).  In this case, there is a negative slope.  

Start from point, (1, 9) and go to point (4, 8).  

Use the formula:

(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Y2 = 8

Y1 = 4

X2 = 9

X1 = 1

(8 - 9)/(4 - 1) = -1/3

Therefore, the slope is -1/3

A punch glass is in the shape of a hemisphere with a radius of 5 cm. If the punch is being poured into the glass so that the cha
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

28.27 cm/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Though Process:

  • The punch glass (call it bowl to have a shape in mind) is in the shape of a hemisphere
  • the radius r=5cm
  • Punch is being poured into the bowl
  • The height at which the punch is increasing in the bowl is \frac{dh}{dt} = 1.5
  • the exposed area is a circle, (since the bowl is a hemisphere)
  • the radius of this circle can be written as 'a'
  • what is being asked is the rate of change of the exposed area when the height h = 2 cm
  • the rate of change of exposed area can be written as \frac{dA}{dt}.
  • since the exposed area is changing with respect to the height of punch. We can use the chain rule: \frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{dA}{dh} . \frac{dh}{dt}
  • and since A = \pi a^2 the chain rule above can simplified to \frac{da}{dt} = \frac{da}{dh} . \frac{dh}{dt} -- we can call this Eq(1)

Solution:

the area of the exposed circle is

A =\pi a^2

the rate of change of this area can be, (using chain rule)

\frac{dA}{dt} = 2 \pi a \frac{da}{dt} we can call this Eq(2)

what we are really concerned about is how a changes as the punch is being poured into the bowl i.e \frac{da}{dh}

So we need another formula: Using the property of hemispheres and pythagoras theorem, we can use:

r = \frac{a^2 + h^2}{2h}

and rearrage the formula so that a is the subject:

a^2 = 2rh - h^2

now we can derivate a with respect to h to get \frac{da}{dh}

2a \frac{da}{dh} = 2r - 2h

simplify

\frac{da}{dh} = \frac{r-h}{a}

we can put this in Eq(1) in place of \frac{da}{dh}

\frac{da}{dt} = \frac{r-h}{a} . \frac{dh}{dt}

and since we know \frac{dh}{dt} = 1.5

\frac{da}{dt} = \frac{(r-h)(1.5)}{a}

and now we use substitute this \frac{da}{dt}. in Eq(2)

\frac{dA}{dt} = 2 \pi a \frac{(r-h)(1.5)}{a}

simplify,

\frac{dA}{dt} = 3 \pi (r-h)

This is the rate of change of area, this is being asked in the quesiton!

Finally, we can put our known values:

r = 5cm

h = 2cm from the question

\frac{dA}{dt} = 3 \pi (5-2)

\frac{dA}{dt} = 9 \pi cm/s// or//\frac{dA}{dt} = 28.27 cm/s
