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

Answer:

answer: 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

(x+4)•(x-1)

——————————— • 2 = 0 • 2

Now, on the left hand side, the 2 cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

(x+4) • (x-1) = 0

7.2 A product of several terms equals zero.

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

simple form

x = 1

x = -4

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation (5y+6)2=24

yulyashka [42]

The value of y is, $y=\frac{2\sqrt{6}-6}{5},\:y=\frac{-2\sqrt{6}-6}{5}$

We have given that,

$\left(5y+6\right)^2=24$

We have to determine the value of y,

<h3>What is the formula for the quadratic equation?</h3>

$\mathrm{For\:}\left(g\left(x\right)\right)^2=f\left(a\right)\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}g\left(x\right)=\sqrt{f\left(a\right)},\:\:-\sqrt{f\left(a\right)}$

Therefore,we get

$5y+6=\sqrt{24}$

$5y+6=2\sqrt{6}$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}6\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$5y+6-6=2\sqrt{6}-6$

$5y=2\sqrt{6}-6$

$\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{2\sqrt{6}}{5}-\frac{6}{5}$

$y=\frac{2\sqrt{6}-6}{5}$

$y=\frac{2\sqrt{6}-6}{5},\:y=\frac{-2\sqrt{6}-6}{5}$

Therefore the value of y is,

$y=\frac{2\sqrt{6}-6}{5},\:y=\frac{-2\sqrt{6}-6}{5}$

wolverine [178]

There are 10 possible number on the first wheel, their would be 9 possible on the second, 8 on the thrid, 7 on the frouth, and 6 on the fifth.

So, 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 6 = 30,240 possible combinations without repeating numbers.
