Answer:

The answer to your question is 11 5/8 cups of flour and 6 3/7 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

The quantities are tripling

The original amount of flour = 3 7/8

The original amount of sugar = 2 1/7

Process

1.- Calculate the amount of flour

-Convert the mix fraction to improper fraction

            3 7/8 = (24 + 7)/8 = 31/8

-Multiply by three

           31/3 x 3 = 93/8

-Convert to mix fraction

                    11

                8 93            

                    13

                      5

- He needs 11 5/8 cups of flour

2.- Calculate the amount of sugar

-Convert to an improper fraction

               2 1/7 = (14 + 1) / 7 = 15/7

-Multiply by three

               15/7 x 3 = 45/7

-Convert to mix fraction

                    6

              7  45

                     3

-He needs 6 3/7 cups of sugar

C=2m+d solve for m plz
Pavel [41]
Isolate the m, go backwards for PEMDAS.

C = 2m + d
C (-d) = 2m + d (-d)
C - d = 2m
(C - d)/2 = 2m/2
m = (C - d)/2

m = (C - d)/2 is your answer

hope this helps

The​ _____ _____, denoted ModifyingAbove p with caretp​, is given by the formula ModifyingAbove p with caretpequals=​_____, wher
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The​ <u>sample proportion</u>, denoted by  ^p​, is given by the formula ^p=​ \frac{x}{n}, where x is the number of individuals with a specified characteristic in a sample of n individuals.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample proportion is used to determine sample mean, sample standard error and test the hypotheses about the population.

<em>sample mean</em> can be stated as p and <em>sample standard error</em> can be found using the equation\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n} } where

  • n is the sample size
  • p is the sample proportion

And if n×p×(1-p)≥10, then sample is assumed large enough to assume normal distribution and apply statistical test.
