What do you need to know? give me an equation and i'll help you solve it
Answer:
6
Explanation:
According to secant-secant theorem,
(PB)(PA)=(PD)(PC)
(7)(12)=(PD)(14)
NOW
84/14 = PD
PD = 6
Ok, so increasing a recipe originally for 16 to 24, you need to figure out how many times larger you need the recipe, so divide 24 by 16, and you get 1.5 (one and a half times larger)
You then just need to take each ingredient amount and multiply it by 1.5
2 cans chopped clams x 1.5 = 3 cans
4 cups broth x 1.5 = 6 cups
6 cups milk x 1.5 = 9 cups
4 cups cubed potatoes x 1.5 = 6 cups
Does this make sense?
There are 100 centimeters in 1 meter, so 54 centimeters subtracted from 100 centimeters(1 meter) is
100-54=46
so 46 centimeters remain, or 46/100 of the board which is really 23/50 of the board.
So basically, your possible answers:
46 centimeters
0.46 meters
46% of the original board
23/50 of the original board
