masya89 [10]

First you need to find the percent equivalent to that of the ratio. The ratio is 3:5. From there you would take the 3, and divide it by 5. 3/5=0.6. Apply that to the information that you are given: 8(0.6)=4.8.

Beau's recipe for granola bars calls for 3 1/2 cups of oatmeal. He only has a 1/6 cup scoop. How many scoops of oatmeal will he

Drupady [299]

There will be $\boxed{\bf 21}$ scoops of oatmeal to complete the recipe.

Further explanation:

Given that Beau’s recipe of granola bars contains $3\frac{1}{2}$ cups of oatmeal.

Beau’s has only $\frac{1}{6}$ cup scoop.

Our aim is to find the number of scoops of oatmeal Beau’s needed to complete the recipe for granola bars.

Total cups of oatmeal are $3\frac{1}{2}$ .

First we have to convert the total cups of oat meal to proper fraction.

$\begin{aligned}\text{Cups of oatmeal for the recipe}&=\dfrac{(3\cdot 2)+1}{2}\\&=\dfrac{6+1}{2}\\&=\dfrac{7}{2}\end{aligned}$

There is only $\frac{1}{6}$ cup scoop.

Since there are $\frac{7}{2}$ cups of oatmeal and $\frac{1}{6}$ cup scoop, therefore, number of scoops required to complete the meal are calculated as follows:

$\begin{aligned}\text{Number of scoops required}&=\dfrac{\frac{7}{2}}{\frac{1}{6}}\\&=\dfrac{7}{2}\cdot 6\\&=7\cdot 3\\&=21\end{aligned}$

The total number of scoops is obtained in whole number; therefore, this is our final answer.

Therefore, $\boxed{\bf 21}$ scoops of oatmeal are needed by Beau’s to complete the recipe of granola bars.

3. Two cars are parked, 150m apart, and on opposite sides of a building. A camera on the top of the building rotates and can vie

allsm [11]

Answer:

<em>The building is 61.5 m tall</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The image below is a diagram where all the given distances and angles are shown. We have additionally added some variables:

h = height of the building

a, b = internal angles of each triangle

x = base of each triangle

The angles a and b can be easily found by subtracting the given angles from 90° since they are complementary angles, thus:

a = 90° - 37° = 53°

b = 90° - 42° = 48°

Now we apply the tangent ratio on both triangles separately:

$\displaystyle \tan a=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}}$

$\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ=\frac{150-x}{h}$

$\displaystyle \tan 48^\circ=\frac{x}{h}$

From the last equation:

$x=h.\tan 48^\circ$

Substituting into the first equation:

$\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ=\frac{150-h.\tan 48^\circ}{h}$

Operating on the right side:

$\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ=\frac{150}{h}-\tan 48^\circ$

Rearranging:

$\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ+\tan 48^\circ=\frac{150}{h}$

Solving for h:

$\displaystyle h=\frac{150}{\tan 53^\circ+\tan 48^\circ}$

Calculating:

h = 61.5 m

The building is 61.5 m tall

Nancy shot a 24 on 4 holes of golf. At this rate, what can she expect her score to be if she plays all 18 holes?

Elden [556K]

Answer:

108

Step-by-step explanation:

"At this rate, ..." means we're to assume Nancy's score is proportional to the number of holes:

score/18 = 24/4

Multiplying by 18, we get ...

score = 18(24/4) = 18(6) = 108

Nancy can expect a score of 108 on 18 holes.
