Answer:
a. Given a number of tablespoons, find the number of cups:
1. Since he needs 2 cups, he can use 2×16=32 tablespoons.
2.Since he needs 1/2 cup, he can use 1/2×16=8 tablespoons.
He needs 1 1/4 cups. 1 cup is 16 tablespoons. 1/4 cup is 1/4×16=4 tablespoons. So altogether he needs 16+4=20 tablespoons.Given a number of cups, find the number of tablespoons:
I already found that 20 tablespoons is 1 1/4 cups. So for 28 tablespoons I need an additional 8 tablespoons, or an additional 1/2 cup. 1 1/4+1/2=1 3/4, so 28 tablespoons gets him 1 3/4 cups. (Alternatively, we might say that 1 tablespoon is 1/16 cups. 1/16×28=28/16, which we can rewrite as 1 12/16 or 1 3/4.)
I notice that to convert from tablespoons to cups, I always divide by 16. 6÷16=6/16, which we can write as 1 3/8. (Alternatively, 1 tablespoon is 1/16 cups. 1/16×6=6/16, which we can rewrite as 1 3/8.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
the answer is d.
Step-by-step explanation:
first, you want to use the formula,
new value - original value
<u>____________________</u>
original value * 100
you see that 84 is the new value and 79 would be the original value. substitute the numbers in. this is a increase since you will get a positive value.
84 - 79
<u>______</u>
79 * 100
now we solve it.
5
<u>__</u>
79 * 100
you can either solve the fraction first then multiply that by 100 or multiply the numerator by 100 first then divide that by 79, each way works.
500
<u>____</u>
79 = approximately 6.3% increase (this is not a exact value, just rounded)
or
5
<u>__</u>
79 = approximately 0.063 (this is not a exact value, just rounded)
0.063 * 100 = 6.3% increase
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side
a^2 +b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse
x^2 + 40^2 = 50^2
x^2 +1600 = 2500
x^2 = 2500-1600
x^2 = 900
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(900)
x = 30
The answer would be 2.5.
hope this helps (;
A "roster" here is essentially a version of the set with all of elements listed out. Here, those elements are all of the odd numbers between 20 and 30, so our list would be
{21, 23, 25, 27, 29}
