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

The first five multiples of 9 are 9 18 27 36 45 I hope that's what you mean.

The prime factors of 9 and 12 are

9: 3 * 3

12: 3 * 2 * 2

The LCM is 3*3*2*2 is 36

The store sold 4 sets of cups ans 3 sets saucers. Answer

The sine of angle θ is 0.3.<br><br> What is cos(θ)?

Sergio [31]

The answer:

$\sqrt{9}1 /10$

Explanation to your question:

Since the sin of theta is 0.3, we can reasonably deduct that the opposite side to theta has a ration of 3 to 10 to that of the hypotenuse. Thus, the adjacent side to theta, using the pythagorean theorem, will be root91. Therefore, since the cosine of theta is the adjacent/hypotenuse, we get root 91/10

Answer: B

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

There are 26 letters in the alphabet. D is the 4th letter, so there are 26 - 4 = 22 letters after D.

$\frac{22}{26}$ ÷ $\frac{2}{2}$ = $\frac{11}{13}$

The circumference of a standard bowling ball is about 27 in. To the nearest unit, how many square inches is the surface area of

Sidana [21]

The surface area of a sphere is $S=4 \pi r^{2}$ where r is the radius;
The circumference is $2 \pi r=27 in$ so that $r= \frac{27}{2 \pi }=4.5 in$ using this value we can evaluate the surface area of 1 ball as:
$S=4 \pi r^{2} =4 \pi (4.5)^{2} =254.3 in^{2}$
For 100 ball you get: $100*254.3=25430 in^{2}$
