Answer: \frac{1}{4} of the pot is left.


Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total amount of pasta in the pot .

Then the amount of pasta her mother got= \frac{1}{12}x

The amount of pasta her brother got=  \frac{1}{6}x

The total amount of pasta he serve= \frac{1}{12}x+\frac{1}{6}x

First convert them in like fractions,then

The total amount of pasta he serve=\frac{1}{12}x+\frac{2}{12}x=\frac{x+2x}{12}=\frac{3x}{12}=\frac{1}{4}x

Hence, \frac{1}{4} of the pot is left over.

1/6 also is 2/12. So, there is 9/12 of the pasta left.

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

This means that the correct initial value problem for the population p(t) as a function of time is is P(0) = 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of a town increases at a rate proportional to its population:

This means that this situation is modeled by the following differential equation:

\frac{dP}{dt} = kP

In which k is the growth rate.

By separation of variables, the solution is given by:

P(t) = P(0)e^{kt}

In which P(0) is the initial population.

Initial population of 1000.

This means that the correct initial value problem for the population p(t) as a function of time is is P(0) = 1000

WhT is this rounded to the nearest hundredth​
Sergio [31]

Answer:

32.02

Step-by-step explanation:

The number that is in the hundredths place is five. You can remember this by knowing that the decimal point counts as one and all the number to the right of the decimal point count as zero. So 0 is in the tenths place, 1 is in the hundredths place, 5 is in the thousandths place, 6 is in the ten thousandths place and so on. So if you round this number to the nearest hundredth, you'll get 32.02 because if you're rounding a number and the number you're rounding with (knowing that the number you're rounding will always be rounded with the number to the right of it) is 5 or greater than 5, that number that you have to round will go up one unit.

I hope this helped!

Find the area of the polygon 10 cm, 10 cm, 16 cm
Zigmanuir [339]

160 cm because if I am correct, then two of the sides are labeled as 10 cm. Which means that they are both the same measurement.

tara made a snack mix with 3/4 cup of rice crackers and 2/3 cup of pretzels. she then ate 5/8 cup of the mix for lunch. how much
grandymaker [24]
First you add 3/4 and 2/3 you but then do 3/4 2/3 you think what the both can go to is 12 the dominator is 12 then you time it by 3,4 because they both go to 12 then the 3 will be time 3 because 4 x 3 = 12 then you do it the top so 3x3 = 9 9/12 then you do the next one is2/3 do the same then will get 8/12 then you can subtract it 9/12 - 8/12 will gave you 1/12
