Answer: = $\dfrac{17}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The amount of oil is used in a recipe. = $\dfrac{1}{3}$

The amount of water used in a recipe = $\dfrac{3}{8}$

The total number of cups of liquid used by Shelly:-

$\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{3}{8}=\dfrac{8+3\times3}{24}\\\\\=\dfrac{8+9}{24}=\dfrac{17}{24}$

Hence, the total number of cups of liquid used in all = $\dfrac{17}{24}$

A sporting goods store offers 40% discount on all golf clubs. Rocco spent 20% of the money in his savings account on a golf putt

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Rocco doesn't have enough money to buy the golf irons

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the rest of the money left in the savings account

using proportion

$\frac{\$48}{20\%}=\frac{x}{80\%}\\ \\x=48*80/20\\ \\x=\$192$

step 2

we know that

The set of golf irons has an original price of $359

Applying 40% discount

100%-40%=60%=60/100=0.60

after the discount the price will be

$0.60(\$359)=\$215.4$

$\$215.4> \$192$

therefore

Rocco doesn't have enough money to buy the golf irons

Step 3: 2x > 10 Step 4: x > 5 What property justifies the work between step 3 and step 4? A. division property of inequali

BigorU [14]

Answer:

A. Division property of inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be $2\cdot x > 10$ , we proceed to show the appropriate procedure to step 4:

1) $2\cdot x >10$ Given

2) $x > 5$ Compatibility with multiplication/Existence of multiplicative inverse/Associative property/Modulative property/Result. (Division property of inequality)

In consequence, the division property of inequality which states that:

$\forall\, a, b, c \in \mathbb{R}$ . If $c > 0$ , then:

$a> b\,\longrightarrow a\cdot c > b\cdot c \,\lor\, a$

But if $c < 0$ , then:

$a> b\,\longrightarrow a\cdot c < b\cdot c \,\lor\, a b\cdot c$

Hence, correct answer is A.
