Answer:

2 2/3 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

The question records that Emeril used a total of 7 1/4 cups of flour for three pastries.

For the first pastry, he used 2 1/4 cups of flour

For the second pastry, he used 2 1/3 cups of flour

To get how much of flour be used for the third, we add the amount he used for the first and second together and subtract that sum from the total cups of flour.

That is, 2 1/4 + 2 1/3

To add this mixed fractions, we add the whole number part first to get: 4 1/4 + 1/3

We then find the L.C.M of 4 and 3 (denominators), which is 12 and solve to get 4 7/12.

4 7/12 is the sum of the two pastries, we then subtract it from 7 1/4 i.e. 7 1/4 - 4 7/12 = 2 8/12

2 8/12 can be broken down to its simplest form which is 2 2/3.

Hence, the amount of flour used for the third pastry by Emeril is 2 2/3 cups

2 1/3 + 2 1/4 
   = 4 7/12 
7 1/4 - 4 7/12
     =2 2/3

On a snow day, Jada created two snowmen in her yard. Snowman A was built to a height of 51 inches and Snowman B was built to a h
MaRussiya [10]

From the graph of the linear functions, we have that both snowman's will have the same height of 21 inches after 5 hours.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

For this problem, we have that:

  • The initial height is the intercept.
  • The melting rate, as a negative, is the slope.

Hence the functions are given as follows:

  • A(t) = 51 - 6t.
  • B(t) = 36 - 3t.

The functions are graphed at the end of the answer, with <u>A(t) in red and B(t) in blue,</u> and they intersect at (5,21), meaning that both snowman's will have the same height of 21 inches after 5 hours.

9.4 The heights of a random sample of 50 college stu- dents showed a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a stan- dard deviation of 6.9
gladu [14]

Answer:  a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean height  = 174.5 cm

Standard deviation = 6.9 cm

n = 50

we need to find the 98% confidence interval.

So, z = 2.326

(a) Construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean height of all college students.

x\pm z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=(174.5\pm 2.326\times \dfrac{6.9}{\sqrt{50}})\\\\=(174.5+2.26,174.5-2.26)\\\\=(176.76,172.24)

(b) What can we assert with 98% confidence about the possible size of our error if we estimate the mean height of all college students to be 174.5 centime- ters?

Error would be

\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=\dfrac{6.9}{\sqrt{50}}\\\\=0.976

Hence, a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.
