Since each batch takes
2 1/2 cups and he's making 3 1/2 batches,
You multiply the two numbers. First change them into improper fractions.
2 1/2 = 5/2
3 1/2 = 7/2
5/2 * 7/2 = 35/4
Simplify 8 3/4 cups flour

1 batch=2 1/2 cups of flour
3 1/2 batches= x cups of flour

    1batch              3 1/2 batches        
___________ = _____________
  2 1/2 cups               x cups

Cross multiply
1x=8 3/4
divide both sides by 1
x=8 3/4 cups

An oil tank has to be drained for maintenance. The tank is shaped like a cylinder that is 4 ft long with a diameter of 2.2 ft. S
gavmur [86]

Answer:

8\:\mathrm{minutes}

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given as:

r^2\cdot\pi\cdot h

Since the diameter is 2.2, the radius is \frac{2.2}{2}=1.1.

Therefore, the volume of this cylinder is:

1.1^2\cdot 3.14\cdot 4=15.1976\:\mathrm{ft^3}, using \pi=3.14 as requested in the problem.

Since the tank is emptied at a constant rate of 1.5\:\mathrm{ft^3\:per\:minute}, it will take

\frac{15.1976}{1.5}=7.5988=\fbox{$8\:\mathrm{minutes}$} to empty the tank.

Solve the following problems:<br> Find x, y
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

x=1.25, y=1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles formed (one triangle with side lengths of 5, 7, 8 and another with sides 5+x, 10, and 7+y) are similar, because they share the same angle measures.

Now, 2 sides given that we can compare ratios with are the side with length 8, and the side with length 10. 10/8= 1.25, which is the ratio of the sides on these 2 triangles.

Now we want to find what the side '5+x' is equal to. To do that we can use our  ratio, and multiply 5 by 1.25 to find '5+x'. This is 6.25. To find x, all we need to do is subtract 5 from 6.25, which is 1.25.

Let's find y now. Do the same thing that we did with the side '5+x'; find what '7+y' is by multiplying 7 by 1.25, which is 8.75. 8.75-7= 1.75.

Hope this helps! :)
