Imagine you are having a potluck at your church this week. You are going to bring a dessert to share. This project includes a re

cipe for chocolate chip cookies for desert. You are expecting 120 people, but the recipe does not serve that many people, so you will need to adjust the ingredients so there will be enough. For example, if a recipe serves 8 people and you need to feed 32 people, what would you need to do? You would have to make 4 times as much as the original recipe makes, which means that you would need to multiply the amount of each ingredient by 4, since 8*4 = 32. (If you are struggling with this project, please refer back to the lesson Multiplying Fractions in the unit Fractions) Cookies (makes 24 servings) 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted. 1/3 cup granulated sugar. 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed. 1 large egg. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour. 1 ½ cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk) Answer the following questions: Show your work for a higher score! 1. This recipe serves 24 people, but you need to serve 120 people. What number will you need to multiply the amount of each ingredient by to adjust the recipe? How did you determine this number?

Which of the following segments is a radius of OK?<br> ОА. АМТ<br> ОВ. Вт<br> Ос. AMR<br> O D. KM
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

A) TA

Step-by-step explanation:

A radius goes from the center of a circle to the outside edge.  

RP connects two points on the outside edge of the circle without going through the center.  This is not a radius.

TR connects two opposite points on the outside edge of the circle while going through the center.  This is a diameter, not a radius.

GP connects two opposite points on the outside edge of the circle while going through the center.  This is a diameter, not a radius.

TA connects the center of the circle to the outside edge.  This is a radius.

Suppose you write a book. The printer charges $4 per book to print it, and you spend $3500 on advertising. You sell the book for
Vesna [10]

Answer:

I must sell more than 318 copies so my revenue is greater than my costs

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost function (C(x)) is divided in two: fixed costs and variable costs. In this case, we have both, the fixed costs are $3,500 that I will spent on advertising and the variable cost is the print cost that depends on the number of books i want to print. The cost function is:

C(x)= $3,500+$4x

The revenue function depends on the number of books I sell:

R(x)= $15x

If i want to know how many books I should sell to have a greater revenue than cost i must solve this inequality:

Revenue (R(x))>Cost (C(x))

$15x>$3,500+$4x

$15x-$4x>$3,500

$11x>$3,500

x>$3,500/$11

x> 318,18

I must sell more than 318 copies so my revenue is greater than my costs

Solve for <br> please help!!
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

x = 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

At point I

to get angle JID

angle JID + 107° = 180°. (angle on a straight line)

angle JID = 180° - 107°

angle JID = 73°

for Triangle JiD

angle DJI + 31° + 73° = 180° (Sum of angles in a triangle)

angle DJI = 180 - 104 = 76°

angle FJI = 31 + 73 =104°. ( Sum of two interior angles in a triangle is equal to one exterior angle)

Hence,

x° + 104° = 180° (angle on a straight line)

x = 76°
