10 feet is 120 inches. If 2 inches represents 120 inches, then the scale is 120/20 or 1inch scale = 60 inches = 5 feet

A recipe calls for 3/4 cup of butter. Angie wants to triple the recipe, but she has only 1 5/8.

Lyrx [107]

Let's start out by tripling the original recipe to see how much butter Angie needs.

$\frac{3}{4} * 3 = total$
$\frac{3* 3}{4} = total$
$\frac{9}{4} = total$
$2 \frac{1}{4} = total$

So we need $2 \frac{1}{4}$ cups of butter, but Angie only has $1 \frac{5}{8}$ . Let's subtract what Angie has from the total to see how much more she needs.

$2 \frac{1}{4} - 1\frac{5}{8} = n$
$\frac{9}{4} - \frac{13}{8} = n$
we will need the least common denominator for both fractions
$\frac{2}{2} *(\frac{9}{4}) - \frac{13}{8} = n$
$\frac{18}{8} - \frac{13}{8} = n$
$\frac{5}{8} = n$

So Angie need $\frac{5}{8}$ cups more of butter for the recipe.

Answer:

if it's finding x

#1 x<-1

#2 x<4

Step-by-step explanation:

#1

2x-16<-18

add 16 to both sides

2x<-2

then divide 2 to both sides

x<-1

#2

2x-16+4x<8

add like terms

6x-16+<8

add sixteen to both sides

6x<24

divide six to both sides

x<4

Find the range. 4.7 6.3 5.4 3.2 4.9 3.1 –3.1 9.5 –9.5

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The range is 19

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to order the numbers from least to greatest:

-9.5, -3.1, 3.1, 3.2, 4.7, 4.9, 5.4, 6.3, 9.5

Then, you have to find the difference between the largest number and and smallest number. You do this by subtracting them:

9.5 - (-9.5)= 19

So, the range is 19

Find X<br><br> Options:<br><br> 6<br> 4 square root 6<br> 6<br> square root 146

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

For this case we can apply the Pythagorean theorem to find "x". Taking the rectangle triangle of base 5 we have:

$x = \sqrt {11 ^ 2-5 ^ 2}\\x = \sqrt {121-25}\\x = \sqrt {96}\\\x = \sqrt {4 ^ 2 * 6}$

By definition of power properties we have:

$\sqrt [n] {a ^ m} = a ^ {\frac {m} {n}}$

So:

$x = 4 \sqrt {6}$

Answer:

$x = 4 \sqrt {6}$
