15 percent of 24
(15/100) * 24
3.6
Answer: 16 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
let the vertex in quadrant I be (x,y)
then the vertex in quadratnt II is (-x,y)
base of the rectangle = 2x
height of the rectangle = y
Area = xy
= x(12 - x²)
= -x³ + 12x
d(area)/dx = 3x² - 12 = 0 for a maximum of area
3x² = 12
x² = 4
x = ±2
y = 12-4 = 8
So, the largest area = 2 x 8 = 16 square units
(t + 8) (-2) = 12
Distributive property >>> -2t + -16 = 12
Inverse operation >>>> -2t + -16+16 = 12+16
Simplify >>>> -2t = 28
Divide >>>> -2t/-2 = 28/-2
Final answer >>>> t = -14
Answer:
So, when we solve for x we see that we can make 16 cookies using 1 cup of sugar. Then, yes, as you suggested we could divide 30 cookies by this ratio to see that we need less than 2 cups of sugar to make 30 cookies: And, as you said, this value is less than 2 cups, the value under Quantity B. Good job! I hope this helps :)
