If you have 8 cups of berries and it takes 2/3 cup to make a dessert how many desserts can you make?

1 answer:

6 0

To find this we want to divide 8 cups by 2/3 cup per dessert.

To divide by a fraction, multiply the forst number by the reciprocal of the second.
(8/1)*(3/2)= 24/2
24/2=12

Final answer: 12 desserts

Find the midpoint of a and b when a has coordinates (-5,3) and b has coordinates (3,-1)

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The midpoint is (2 , 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint, we have to add the corresponding coordinates

[(-5 , 3) + (3 , -1)] / 2

we separate into the corresponding

(-5 + 3) / 2 =

-2 / 2 = -1

(3 - 1) / 2 =

2 / 2 = 1

The midpoint is (2 , 1)

Today, 6 friends went out for lunch. Their total bill was $27.60, including tax and gratuity. They decided to split the bill equ

Paladinen [302]

Step-by-step explanation:

Right, okay, so this is a bit of a weird one. Let's go step by step.

"Today, 6 friends went out for lunch." = The number 6 is gonna be in our equation somewhere.

"Their total bill was $27.60" = so is the number 27.6

"They decided to split the bill equally" = 27.6 "split equally" (aka divided by) 6 friends is 4.6

"each paid with a $10 bill" = This is where it gets a lil weird. So, if they divided the bill among them, none of their amounts are gonna be anywhere near ten dollars. This is one of those questions that wouldn't really happen in real life. People would probably use fives instead, but whatever. So a number we'll be using for something is 10.

"How much money will each person get back?" = So we have to find the amount they all paid (10) minus the amount each one had to pay (4.6).

To put it all into a full equation...

10 - ( 27.6 / 6 )

Divide.

10 - 4.6

Subtract.

5.4

Put back into money form.

$5.40

Answer:

Each person will get back $5.40.

A bag contains 4 black tiles, 5 white tiles, and 6 blue tiles. Event A is

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

2/21

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is badly formatted so cannot match the answer choice

Total number of tiles = 4 + 5 + 6 = 15

P(A) = P(drawing a black tile from 15 tiles) = 4/15

After event A, there are 14 tiles left : 3 black, + 5 white + 6 blue

P(B/A) = P(drawing white tile after a black tile has been drawn) = 5/14

P(A and B) = P(A).P(B/A) = 4/15 x 5/14 = 2/21

Note that P(B) = 5/15 since we are talking about independently drawing a white tile from the original stack of tiles

Find the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line through the point (0, -4) and (1, 0).

Arisa [49]

Answer:

The Slope Intercept form of the equation through the point (0, -4) and

(1, 0) is y = 4 x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given points are A (0,-4) and B(1,0)

Now, slope of the equation with points (a,b) and (c,d) is given as

$m = \frac{d - b}{c -a}$

So, here the slope of the line AB is given as:

$m = \frac{0 - (-4)}{1-0} = \frac{4}{1} = 4$

⇒ m = 4

Now, by POINT SLOPE form:

The equation with slope m and point (x0 , y0) is represented as :

(y-y0) = m (x-x0)

⇒ The equation of AB is of the form with point (1,0) is

y - 0 = 4 (x -1)

or, y = 4 x - 1

Also, the SLOPE INTERCEPT form of an equation is of the form

y = m x + C ; m = slope and C = y -intercept

Hence, the slope intercept form of the equation through the point (0, -4) and (1, 0) is y = 4 x - 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug n the h and j so you get 6-(2-1). Due to PEMDAS you do the parenthesis first then subtract so it become 6-1=5. ( You could use distributive property)
