Hello!

To find how much batches of cookies the factory made, we need to divide the total number of bags of flour used by how many bags of flour are needed for one batch of cookies.

Before dividing, we need to convert the complex fraction into an improper fraction.

1 1/5 → 5 × 1 + 1 = 6/5

7 1/5 → 5 × 7 + 1 = 36/5

For every batch of cookies, the factory uses 6/5 bags of flour. Yesterday, the factory used 36/5 bags of flour.

Remember when dividing by a fraction, it is like multiplying its reciprocal. This means that the second fraction is flipped, then which it can be multiplied together.

\frac{36}{5} / \frac{6}{5} → \frac{36}{5} * \frac{5}{6} = \frac{180}{30} = 6

Therefore, the cookie factory made 6 batches of cookies yesterday.

How do i graph x-y=-3
solmaris [256]
X - y = -3
y = x + 3.......slope = 1, y intercept = (0,3)

to find x int, sub in 0 for y and solve for x
x - y = -3
x - 0 = -3
x = -3....so the x intercept = (-3,0)

plot ur points (0,3) and (-3,0)......now start at (-3,0)....and since ur slope is 1, go up one, and to the right 1, and up 1, and to the right 1.....do this over as many times as needed and u should cross the y axis at (0,3)

Could someone help here, thankyou!
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

x = 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio of sides of similar figures = a : b , then

ratio of areas = a² : b²

Here ratio of areas = 5 : 45 = 1 : 9 , so

ratio of sides = \sqrt{1} : \sqrt{9} = 1 : 3

Thus side of B is 3 times side of A

x = 3 × 2 = 6 cm

Mama L [17]

Answer:

b. the association is consistent when results are repeated in studies in different settings using different methods

Step-by-step explanation:

-In statistics and research, internal consistency is typically a measure based on the correlations between different items on the same test (or the same subscale on a larger test).

-It measures whether several items that propose to measure the same general construct produce similar scores.
