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

Find the missing x- and y-values and Pythagorean triples can be generated using the identity given. Write the triple in parenthe
ddd [48]

The complete question is:

Find the missing x- and y-values and Pythagorean triples using the identity given:

(x² - y²)² + (2xy)² = (x² + y²)²

X Value: 4

Y Value: 3

Pythagorean Triples: ?

X Value: 5

Y Value: ?

Pythagorean Triples: (9,40,41)

X Value: ?

Y Value: 3

Pythagorean Triples: (27,36,45)

X Value: 7

Y Value: 5

Pythagorean Triples: ?

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean triples are three numbers p, q, r, that satisfy Pythagoras' theorem.

That is, they are numbers such that

r² = p² + q².

Given the identity

(x² - y²)² + (2xy)² = (x² + y²)²

We can say tha

p = x² - y²

q = 2xy

r = x² + y²

Now, let us use this to solve the given problems.

X Value: 4

Y Value: 3

p = 4² - 3² = 7

q = 2×3×4 = 24

r = 3² + 4² = 25

Pythagorean Triples: (7,24,25)

X Value: 5

Y Value: ? = (4)

q = 2xy = 40

2×5×y = 40

y = 40/10 = 4

Pythagorean Triples: (9,40,41)

X Value: ? = (6)

Y Value: 3

2xy = q = 36

2×3×x = 36

x = 36/6 = 6

Pythagorean Triples: (27,36,45)

X Value: 7

Y Value: 5

p = 7² - 5² = 24

q = 2×7×5 = 70

r = 7² + 5² = 74

Pythagorean Triples: ? = (24,70,74)

Determine the number of possible triangles, ABC, that can be formed given A = 150°, a = 7, and b = 4.
GREYUIT [131]
1.

When  you have the length of two sides and the angle between them, the triangle is totally determined. This is, there is only one segment that can complete the triangle: its length and position is totally fixed.

The cost of 4 kilograms of cheese is 50 dollars. which equation shows this in function notation?
Xelga [282]
$50 corresponds to 4 kg That means there must be a number that when you multiply by 4 you get 50. Let that number be k. k is the price of cheese per kg. 1 kg: y = k * 1 2 kg: y = k * 2
