A bakery uses 3/4 cups of oats to make a 2 4/7 pounds of oatmeal cookies.how many cups of oats are required per pound of cookies

1 answer:

3 0

We can use ratios to find the answer to this.
Set up the ratio.
3/4 / 18/7 = x / 1

Multiply both sides by 1
3/4 / 18/7 = x

Inverse 18/7 to 7/18 so we can multiply.
3/4 * 7/18 = x
Multiply.
21/72 = x
Simplify7/24 = x
Therefore, 7/24 cups of oats is used per pound.

Identify the slope and the y-intercept of the line with the given equation: 2x+6y=12

Elza [17]

Answer:

The slope is -1/3 and the y-intercept is (0, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+6y=12

6y=12-2x

6y=-2x+12

y=-2/6x+12/6

y=-1/3x+2

y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept

Given a right triangle with sides a = 3 , b = 4, and c = 5. Find the missing side c of another right triangle with a = 6 and b =

horsena [70]

c = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find out the missing side of a right triangle by using the Pythagorean theorem.

The Pythagorean theorem is...

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

We can even double check the first problem by plugging in everything into the theorem and solving, everything will come out correct. We can plug in the numbers from the second problem into the theorem and find c, also please note that the hypotenuse of a triangle will always be c. It doesn't matter which you put in for a or b, but since the problem gives us which one is a and which one is b, I'll just be plugging it in like that.

$6^2+8^2=c^2$

$36+64=c^2$

$100=c^2$

A lot of people will stop here and think that the answer is 100, but you need to find the square root of 100, since c is squared. The square root of 100 is 10, so...

c = 10
