The answer would be the three quart bowl.Since it is clearly stated at the problem that if she 'triples' the recipe.So meaning, she needs to multiply each by three.So 1 quart = 3 quarts2 quarts = 6 quarts3 quarts = 9 quarts
So the smallest now would be the three quarts bowl.

3. Uncle Gino's Pizza Parlor sold 200 sausage

3. They sold 250 pizzas last week.

4. There are 80 tropical fish in the shipment.

5. 150 students were surveyed.

6. The total size of file is 1000 megabytes.

Step-by-step explanation:

3. Uncle Gino's Pizza Parlor sold 200 sausage pizzas last week. That was 80% of the total pizzas they sold. How many total pizzas did they sell last week?

Given,

Pizzas sold last week = 200

This represents 80% of total pizzas sold.

Let,

x be the total pizzas sold.

80% of x = 200

$\frac{80}{100}x=200\\0.8x=200$

Dividing both sides by 0.8

$\frac{0.8x}{0.8}=\frac{200}{0.8}\\x=250$

They sold 250 pizzas last week.

4. The local pet store received a shipment of tropical fish. Seventy-five percent of the tropical fish were clown-fish. If the shipment included 60 clown-fish, how many total tropical fish were in the shipment?

Given,

Number of clown-fish in shipment = 60

This represents 75% of total shipment.

Let x be the total number of fish in shipment.

75% of x = 60

$\frac{75}{100}x=60\\0.75x=60$

Dividing both sides by 0.75

$\frac{0.75x}{0.75}=\frac{60}{0.75}\\x=80$

There are 80 tropical fish in the shipment.

5. In a survey of favorite pets, 45 students said they preferred cats. This was 30% of the total number of students surveyed. How many students took the survey?

Given,

Number of students who preferred cats = 45

This represents 30% of total students surveyed.

Let, x be the number of total students surveyed.

30% of x = 45

$\frac{30}{100}x=45\\0.3x=45$

Dividing both sides by 0.3

$\frac{0.3x}{0.3}=\frac{45}{0.3}\\ x=150$

150 students were surveyed.

6. Kara has downloaded 250 megabytes of a file onto her computer. The screen tells her that this is 25% of the total file. How many megabytes is the file?

Given,

File downloaded = 250 MB

This represents the 25% of total size of file.

Let, x be the total size of file.

25% of x = 250

$\frac{25}{100}x=250\\0.25x=250\\$

Dividing both sides by 0.25

$\frac{0.25x}{0.25}=\frac{250}{0.25}\\x=1000$

The total size of file is 1000 megabytes.

Which of the following is true regarding the solution to the logarithmic equation below?

lidiya [134]

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: It is given question and option "=" sing is missing. On some places it should be "=" instead of "=".

Consider the given equation is

$\log_2(x+11)=4$

Using properties of \logarithm we get

$(x+11)=2^4$ $[\because \log_ax=b\Leftightarrow x=a^b]$

$x+11=16$

$x=16-11$

$x=5$

The solution is x=5.

To check the solution, substitute x=5 in the given equation.

$\log_2(5+11)=4$

$\log_2(16)=4$

$\log_22^4=4$

$4=4$

$LHS=RHS$

Therefore, x-5 is a true solution because $\log_2(16)=4$ .
