On the popular cooking show Cookbook Crunch, the host picks a random recipe from a cookbook and the author has to feed the 63-me

mber studio audience in one hour! The host selects this recipe for Carlita: Spicy Spinach and Apricots (Feeds 6) Ingredients: • 1/2 kilogram spinach • 1/4 kilogram apricots • 1/5 kilogram jalapeno pastry • 1/10 kilogram pine nuts • Salt, pepper, and hot sauce Bake at 350° in a medium loaf pan for 45 minutes. Carlita only finds a hundred small, 175-gram loaf pans. If cooking time is proportional to the amount of mixture and if the oven holds 9 of these pans at once, how much time will be left in the show when Carlita pulls the last batch out of the oven? (Assume the time to mix ingredients, remove a batch from the oven, and put in the next one is insignificant.)

Answer:

<u>When Carlita pulls the last batch out of the oven, it will be left in the show 7.5 minutes.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

The host selects this recipe for Carlita:

Spicy Spinach and Apricots (Feeds 6)

Ingredients:

1/2 kilogram spinach = 500 grams

1/4 kilogram apricots = 250 grams

1/5 kilogram jalapeno pastry = 200 grams

1/10 kilogram pine nuts = 100 grams

Total ingredients for 6 = 500 + 250 + 200 + 100 = 1,050 grams

Carlita only finds a hundred small, 175-gram loaf pans.

2. If cooking time is proportional to the amount of mixture and if the oven holds 9 of these pans at once, how much time will be left in the show when Carlita pulls the last batch out of the oven? (Assume the time to mix ingredients, remove a batch from the oven, and put in the next one is insignificant.)

Original recipe = 1,050 grams of ingredients baked at 350° in a medium loaf pan for 45 minutes

1,050/175 = 6 (It means that the amount you’re baking in a small pan is 1/6 the amount in the original recipe). Let's recall that bake time is proportional to how much you’re baking, then you bake each small pan for 45 mins/6  = 7.5 minutes (divide by 6 since small pan is 1/6 the size of recipe)

Now, we can calculate the number of batches needed to feed the 63 members of the studio audience:

Batches = Number of members/Number of small pans at once in the oven

Batches = 63/9 = 7

Finally, we can calculate the time needed for the 7 batches:

Total time = Number of batches * proportional time a small pan needed to bake 175 grams of ingredients

Total time = 7 * 7.5 minutes = 52.5 minutes

<u>If Carlita has to pull the last batch out of the oven in less than an hour, it will be left in the show (60 - 52.5 = 7.5 minutes) . She even could feed nine more members of the audience!</u>

ella [17]

Answer: if you have infinity points, which i will asume are the events, they cant have the same probability because then the probability will not be normalized, because in graph of prob vs variable, you will se infinite area under the curve if the probability is constant.

And yes, can all points have positive probability of occurring, but besides you medium value (the bell for example) you will see an asintotic decrease to the zero.

Answer:

8 pieces of string

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total yards of string = 4

Length in yd of each string = 1/2 yards

Number of pieces of string Ms. Cole has :

Total. Yards / length in yard of each string

4 / (1/2)

4 * (2 /1)

= 8/1

= 8 pieces of string.

rewona [7]
Since the data follows a normal distribution, the 68-95-97 rule can be used to describe the number of people falling under N standard deviations from the mean. Since the standard deviation is 1, hemoglobin levels of 13 -15 g/dL contains 68% of the sample, or 136 people. This means the 32 people have less than 13 g/dL and 32 people have more than 15 g/dL.

What is 3 ^9? how to solve?
Tanya [424]
3⁹ is the same as doing:

3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3

What I would do it is narrow it down piece by piece. 

3 * 3 * 3 = 27. Do that 3 times, now you are left with:

27 * 27 * 27

27 * 27 or 27² = 729.

That leaves you with:

729 * 27

You can multiply by hand or use a calculator to get your answer of 19683.

To check your answer, plug 3⁹ into a calculator. Your answer should match this.
