Answer:

12.5 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Half of the granola served with breakfast.

Let the amount of Granola present initially = x kg

Half of it (\frac{x}{2}) served with breakfast, so remaining granola :

x-\dfrac{x}{2} = \dfrac{x}{2}

After dinner, the remaining granola 6,250 gm granola was served with yogurt dessert.

First of all, let us convert it to kilogram because the answer is required in Kilograms.

We know that:

1000 gms = 1 kilograms

1 gms = 0.001 kilograms

6250 gms  = 6250 \times 0.001 = 6.250 kilograms

Now, as per given question statement:

\dfrac{x}{2} = 6.250\ kg\\\Rightarrow x = 2 \times 6.250\\\Rightarrow \bold{x = 12.5\ kg}

So, the answer is:

Girl scout camp started with 12.5 Kilograms of granola.

How are y-intercepts of y=(1/3)^x and y=5(1/3)^x different?
loris [4]
Remark.
The easiest way to do this question is to graph it. Start with that.
The red line is y = (1/3)^x
The blue line is y = 5*(1/3)^x

Comment
The red line's y intercept is (0,1)
The blue line's y intercept is (0,5)

Why
If the x value is 0 then (1/3)^0 = 1
y = (1/3)^0 = 1 * 1 = 1 and for the blue graph
y =  5*(1/3)^0 = 5*1 = 5

In other words, in this set of equations, the 5 makes the y intercept 5 times larger than the 1 in front of y = (1/3)^x

If you have choices, could you please list them? I may be giving you the right answer but not in the form required.

If you have 3 4/6. Cups of sugar then divided it by 2 cups then added 4.9 cups how many eould you have
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

11/6 or decimal 1.8333... + 4.9 = 6.733333....

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

(3 + 2/3)/2

Express 4/6 in its lowest form by cancelling out gcd(4, 6) = 2 from the numerator and denominator. 4/6 = (2×2)/(2×3) = 2/3:

(2/3 + 3)/2

Put 3 + 2/3 over the common denominator 3. 3 + 2/3 = (3×3)/3 + 2/3:

((3×3)/3 + 2/3)/2

3×3 = 9:

(9/3 + 2/3)/2

9/3 + 2/3 = (9 + 2)/3:

((9 + 2)/3)/2

9 + 2 = 11:

(11/3)/2

11/3×1/2 = 11/(3×2):

11/(3×2)

3×2 = 6:

Answer:  11/6 or decimal 1.8333... + 4.9 = 6.733333....

Mike has a rowboat for crossing the river. The rowboat can hold only 200 pounds without sinking. If mike has his two little brot
Elina [12.6K]

Something that could be done is to tie a rope long enough to cross the river and send the two younger brothers across first, then have Mike pull the boat back across the river with the rope and him get in the boat and row it across the river with just himself and the gear.

Another option is you can unload some gear, put the boys in the boat, row them across the river, unload the two younger boys, go back for the rest of gear and load it into the boat then come back.


Hope this helps!

ABCD ≅ FGHJ. Find the measure of the given angles or lengths of the given sides. CD = 2x + 3; HJ = 3x + 2.
xenn [34]
The question asks for the length of CD and HJ. To find those, we need to find a connection between them.

In the given statement, it says ABCD ≅ FGHJ. When we look at the equation, the corresponding letters are equal. For example, angle A is congruent to Angle F. Or BC ≅ GH.

So we know that CD and HJ are congruent.
Set them equal:
2x + 3 = 3x + 2
Subtract 2x from both sides:
3 = x + 2
Subtract 2 from both sides:
x = 3
If x is 3, plug it in:
3(3) + 2
Simplify:
9 + 2 = 11

So, HJ is 11. And because HJ ≅ CD, CD is 11 too.
