The correct answer is $15

Explanation:

The first step is to determine the total of oil that was used for the 5 batches. To find this, you just need to multiply the amount of oil used for one batch by the total batches.

1 cup of oil per batch x 5 batches = 5 cups of oil

This means, in the 5 batches the oil Dinesh used was 5 cups of oil. Additionally, you know the total of cups in the bottle of oil is 12 cups, and these 12 cups or total costs $36. Now to find what is the cost of the 5 cups use the rule of three and cross multiplication.

12 cups of oil = $36   1. Write the values

5 cups of oil  = x      

12 x = 180           2.  Cross multiply this means 36x 5 and 12 multipy by x

x = 180 ÷ 12        3. Solve the equation

x=  15 - Cost for 5 cups used in the batches

Help!<br> What would d be?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

d = 17.5499287748 inches or 17.5 inches to 1 decimal place

Step-by-step explanation:

find the diagonal line passing through the middle of the bottom rectangle:

a² + b² = c²

10² + 8² = c²

100 + 64 = 164

c² = 164

c = √164

c = 12.8062484729

find d:

a² + b² = c²

12² + 12.80624847298² = c²

144+ 164 = 308

c² = 308

c = √308

c = 17.5499287748

therefore d = 17.5499287748 inches or 17.5 inches to 1 decimal place

Today, everything at a store is on sale. The store offers a 20% discount.
Mila [183]
Answer: $14.40

10% of $18 = $1.80 (just divide it by 10)
$1.80 x 2 = $3.60
20% of $18 = $3.60

since it’s a discount, you subtract from the original price so:

$18 - $3.60 = $14.40

Can somebody help me with this problem
soldier1979 [14.2K]
115 degrees because there are 180 degrees in a triangle so let the missing angle in the trinagle be x. Then we have x+75+40=180. Solving for x and subtracting that from 180 (supplementary angles) we get 115 degrees.
