Answers:

A. 1c/2lb

B. 8 cups of dressing

 

 

SOLUTION

 

Given that a catering company’s recipe for Salad uses a ratio of 2c of dressing to 4 lb of vegetables

 

A. Write a ratio of dressing to vegetables as a reduced fraction

A reduced fraction is the expression of a ratio in its simplest fractional form

Dressing: Vegetable = 2c : 4 lb

 In fractional form, 2c/4lb

 

2 is a common factor to both numerator and denominator

Therefore, in reduced fractional form,

2c/4lb = 1c/2lb

 

Therefore, ratio of dressing to vegetables as a reduced fraction is 1c/2lb

 

 

B. How many cups of dressing would they need for 16 lb of vegetables

1c = 2lb

16lb = ?

 

Since 1c = 2lb

2lb = 1c

1lb = 1/2 c

16lb = 16(1/2)c

16lb = 8c

 

Therefore, they would need 8 cups of dressing for 16 lb of vegetables

Answer:

y =  \frac{18 {w}^{2}  {x}^{2}  {z}^{2} }{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{3wx}{ \sqrt{2y} }  =  \frac{5}{2z}  \\  \\  \sqrt{2y}  \times 5 = 3wx \times 2z \\  \\  \sqrt{2y}   \times 5 = 6wxz \\  \\  \sqrt{2y}  =  \frac{6wxz}{5}  \\  \\  {( \sqrt{2y} })^{2}  =  {( \frac{6wxz}{5} })^{2}  \\  \\ 2y =  \frac{36 {w}^{2} {x}^{2} {z}^{2}   }{25}  \\  \\  \\  y =  \frac{36 {w}^{2} {x}^{2}  {z}^{2}  }{25}  \div 2 \\  \\  \\ y =  \frac{36 {w}^{2} {x}^{2} {z}^{2}   }{25}  \times  \frac{1}{2}  \\  \\  \\ y =  \frac{36 {w}^{2} {x}^{2}  {z}^{2}  }{50}  \\  \\  \\ y =  \frac{18 {w}^{2} {x}^{2}   {z}^{2} }{25}

Which of the following are identities? Check all that apply
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

A, C

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually, those questions require us to develop those equations to derive into trigonometrical equations so that we can unveil them or not. Doing it only two alternatives, the other ones will not result in Trigonometrical Identities.

Examining

A) True

\frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx} =\frac{1}{tan2x} \\ \frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx} =\frac{1}{\frac{2tanx}{1-tan^{2}x}}\\ tan2x=\frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx}

Double angle tan2\alpha =\frac{1 -tan^{2}\alpha }{2tan\alpha}

B) False,

No further development towards a Trig Identity

C) True

Double Angle Sine Formula sin2\alpha =2sin\alpha *cos\alpha

sin(8x)=2sin(4x)cos(4x)\\2sin(4x)cos(4x)=2sin(4x)cos(4x)

D) False No further development towards a Trig Identity

[sin(x)-cos(x)]^{2} =1+sin(2x)\\ sin^{2} (x)-2sin(x)cos(x)+cos^{2}x=1+2sinxcosx\\ \\sin^{2} (x)+cos^{2}x=1+4sin(x)cos(x)

The five values for a data set are:
dem82 [27]

Answer:

The box-and-whisker plot for the given question is as shown at the attached figure.

Minimum = 11

Lower quartile = Q1 = 12

Median = Q2 = 23.5

Upper quartile = Q3 = 27

Maximum = 33

<u>So, according to the given data and the figure:</u>

  • The box will go from <u>12 to 27</u>                ⇒ Q1 to Q3
  • A line dividing the box will go at <u>23.5</u>   ⇒ Q2
  • The left whisker will go from <u>11 to 12</u>     ⇒ Minimum to Q1
  • The right whisker will go from to <u>27 to 33</u>  ⇒ Q2 to Maximum
