If 20 large cakes are needed, you'll need 4 helpers. To find this, you first need to find how many cakes 1 helper can make. Every hour, one helper can make 2 large cakes. If they have the kitchen for 3 hours, 6 large cakes can be made by one helper. This also means that 2 helpers make 12 cakes, 3 helpers can make 18 cakes, and 4 helpers can make 24 cakes. Since you can't have a fraction of a helper, 4 is your answer. For the 700 small cakes, you do the same thing. Every hour, 1 helper makes 35 small cakes. In 3 hours, 1 helper can make 105 small cakes. 2 can make 210, 3 can make 315, 4 can make 420, 5 can make 525, 6 can make 630, and 7 can make 735. The 700 small cakes takes 7 helpers and the 20 large cakes takes 4 helpers. Your total amount of helpers is 11.

Find two consecutive odd integers such that 65 more than the lesser is four times the greate
lyudmila [28]
Let the lesser number be x  and y the greater. Then

x + 65 = 4y ,  Also

y - x =  2
Adding:-

y + 65 = 4y + 2
63 = 3y
y = 21
and
x = 21-2 = 19

Answer the 2 odd numbers are 19 and 21.

A locker requires a three-digit code to open the lock. The code must contain one letter and two numbers, and no letter or number
mixas84 [53]

A locker requires a three-digit code to open the lock. The code must contain one letter and two numbers, and no letter or number can be repeated. You can choose from among four letters, A, B, C, and D, and two numbers, 5 and 6.

The size of the sample space is: (8, 16, 20, 24)

If a code is chosen at random, the probability that it has a letter that immediately follows an odd number is: (1/8, 1/6, 1/3, 2/5, 2/3)

If a code is chosen at random, the probability that D is in the code but is not in the first position is: (1/8, 1/6, 1/3, 2/5, 2/3)

Y=2x+4<br> y=x=6<br> i need help solving the system of equations
Temka [501]

Answer:

X = 6

Y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x = 6

we won’t pay attention to the first equation because this equation says that:   “y = x” and “x = 6”

so, if x = 6, so will be y
