Answer:

60% of the cake is banana .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

$Percentage = \frac{Part\ value\times 100}{Total\ value}$

As given

The ratio of strawberry to banana batter is 2:3.

we need 30 cups of batter total.

Let us assume that x be the scalar multiple of the strawberry to banana batter .

Total banana batter = 3x

Total strawberry batter = 2x

2x + 3x = 30

5x = 30

$x = \frac{30}{5}$

x = 6

Total banana batter = 3x

= 3 × 6

= 18 cups

Part value = 18

Total value = 30

Put all the values in the formula

$Percentage = \frac{18\times 100}{30}$

$Percentage = \frac{1800}{30}$

Percentage = 60%

Therefore 60% of the cake is banana .

We only need the percent

straberry:banana=2:3
2+3=5

banana=3 units
3/5=0.60=60%

60% is banana
and also 18cups is banana

1; 4; 16; 64; ...<br>what is the general term

Alborosie

Given:

The sequence is

1, 4, 16, 64

To find:

The general term of the given sequence.

Solution:

We have, the sequence

1, 4, 16, 64

Here, the ratio between two consecutive terms is same. So, it is a geometric sequence.

First term is:

$a=1$

Common ratio is:

$r=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}$

$r=\dfrac{4}{1}$

$r=4$

The nth term of a geometric sequence is

$a_n=ar^{n-1}$ ...(i)

Where, a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Putting a=1 and r=4 in (i), we get

$a_n=(1)(4)^{n-1}$

$a_n=4^{n-1}$

Therefore, the general term of the given sequence is $a_n=4^{n-1}$ .

Marshall charges $22.00 per hour to cut yards in his neighborhood. Use the ratio of Marshall’s hours worked to the amount earned

Leni [432]

If there are $22 made per hour for 7 hours, you’d add 22 per hour in your table. 1 hour=$22, 2 hours=$44, 3 hours=$66, and so forth. make a table of these numbers up to 7 hours.

A table of values of a linear function is shown below.

ikadub [295]

Given:

A table of values of a linear function.

To find:

The slope, y-intercept and equation of the function.

Solution:

Take any two points on the table.

Let the points are (-1, -3) and (0, -6).

Slope of the line:

$$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$$m=\frac{-6-(-3)}{0-(-1)}$

$$m=\frac{-6+3}{0+1}$

$$m=\frac{-3}{1}$

m = -3

Slope of the function = -3

y-intercept of the function is the point where x = 0.

In the table y = -6 when x = 0

y-intercept = -6

Equation of a line:

y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

y = -3x + (-6)

y = -3x - 6

Equation of a function is y = -3x - 6.
