A recipe calls for 1 ½ cups of flour, 2/3 cup of white sugar, and 1/3 cup of brown sugar. The recipe makes 6 servings. A) How ma

Goryan [66]

A) How many cups of flour are there per serving?

1 ½ cups of flour --------6 servings
? cups of flour ------- 1 serving

1 ½
------------
6

= 3/2 x 1/6
= 1/4

answer: 1/4 cups of flour per serving

B) how many total cups of sugar(white and brown) are there per serving?
total white and brown: 2/3 + 1/3 = 3/3 = 1 cups (combine)

1 cup of sugar (white and brown) --------6 servings
? cups of sugar (white and brown) ------ 1 serving

1
----- = 1/6
6
answer: 1/6 cups of sugar (white and brown) per serving

 (c) Suppose you modify the recipe so that it makes 9 servings. How much more flour do you need for the modified recipe than you need for the original recipe?

3/2 cups of flour --------6 servings
? cups of flour -----------9 servings

9 * 3/2
-----------
6

= (13 1/2) / 6
= 2 1/4

2 1/4 ( 9 servings) - 1 1/2(6 servings) = 3/4 cups

answer: you need 3/4 more cups of flour

8/x-5 - 9/x-4 = 5/x^2-9x+20

_______________

Solve the equation:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8}{x-5}-\dfrac{9}{x-4}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}\qquad\qquad(x\ne 5~and~x\ne 4)}$

Reduce the fractions at the left side so that they have the same denominator:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8(x-4)}{(x-5)(x-4)}-\dfrac{9(x-5)}{(x-4)(x-5)}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32}{x^2-4x-5x+20}-\dfrac{9x-45}{x^2-4x-5x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32}{x^2-9x+20}-\dfrac{9x-45}{x^2-9x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32-(9x-45)}{x^2-9x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}$

Numerators must be equal:

$\mathsf{8x-32-(9x-45)=5}\\\\
\mathsf{8x-32-9x+45=5}\\\\
\mathsf{8x-9x=5+32-45}\\\\
\mathsf{-x=-8}\\\\
\mathsf{x=8}\quad\longleftarrow\quad\textsf{this is the solution.}$

I hope this helps. =)

Let's call the aces $h, d, c, s$ for hearts, diamonds, clubs and spades. So, $h, d$ are red and [ted] c, s[/tex] are black.

Since the first card is replaced, the two picks are identical. This means that the sample space is given by all the possible couple

$(x,y)\, x, y \in \{h,d,c,s\}$

There are 16 such couples (we have four choices for the first card, and the same four choices for the second card). Now let's compute the odds in our favour to deduce the probability of winning:

If we want a player to draw two card of the same colour, the following couples are good:

$(h,h),\ (h,d),\ (d,h),\ (d,d),\ (c,c),\ (c,s),\ (s,c),\ (s,s)$

so 8 possible couples over 16. This means that the probability that a player draws two cards of the same color is 8/16 = 1/2.

Similarly, the probability of drawing a red ace first and then a black ace is represented by the following couples:

$(h,c),\ (h,s),\ (d,c),\ (d,s)$

which are 4 over the same 16 as above, thus leading to a probability of 4/16 = 1/4.

Harry reads equal numbers of pages of a book every week. The graph shows the number of pages of the book left to read, y, after

horsena [70]

Answer:

$y=-55x+275$

Explanation:

The given points are:

(0, 275)
(1, 220)
(2, 165)
(3, 110)
(4,55)
(5, 0)

Since a straight line joins all the points, the equation that models the relationship is linear and you can find the slope-intercept equation which has the general form:

$y=mx+b$

Where:

$m$ is the slope

$b$ is the y-intercept

1. Find the slope

You can use any two ordered pairs.

m = rise/run = Δy/Δx = [220 - 275] /[1 - 0] = - 55

2. Find the y-intercept

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0; thus it is 275.

b = 275

3. Substitute in the slope-intercept equation

$y=-55x+275$

That is the last option.
