Answer:

a. 9\frac{3}{4}, from which he can make 9 loaves.

b. \frac{3}{4} is the remaining part.

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • The recipe calls for 1/3 cups of raisins for each loaf.
  • Pauls has 3 1/4 cups of raisins.

To find then number loaves that Paul can make, we just need to divide the number of cups of raising he has, and the cups of raisins need it according to the recipe.

3\frac{1}{4} \div \frac{1}{3}

But, we first need to transform the mixed numero into a fraction, then we solve

3\frac{1}{4} \div \frac{1}{3}=\frac{13}{4} \div \frac{1}{3}=\frac{13}{4} \times \frac{3}{1}=    \frac{39}{4}

If we divide this fraction, we obtain a mixed number, becuase the division is not exact

\frac{39}{4}= 9\frac{3}{4}

So, Paul can make 9\frac{3}{4} number of loaves. But, he cannot make an incomplete loaf, that means Paul can only make 9 loaves, and the remaining is 3/4, that's the "excess". You can get this answer by subtracting

9\frac{3}{4} - 9= \frac{39}{4}-9=\frac{39-36}{4}=\frac{3}{4}

Therefore, the answers are

a. 9\frac{3}{4}

b. \frac{3}{4}

Answer:

4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

it is given that

1/2" on the blueprint -----> 12 feet actual length

we can rearrange to say :

12 feet actual length ---> 1/2" on paper

or

1 foot actual length = (1/2)" ÷ 12 = 1/24" on paper

hence

96 feet actual length = 1/24 x 96 = 4 inches (answer)

What is the x and y intercept
Olenka [21]
Look carefully at the point where the 2 lines intersect.  From that point, look straight down to the x-axis; you'll see that the x-value there is 50.  Similarly,
starting at the intersection, look straight left to the y-axis; the y-value there is 11.

Thus, the coordinates of the intersection (i. e., the solution) are found in (50,11).

What is the slope of a line that is parallel to y equals 3x + 5
Sergio039 [100]

A line parallel to this one would have a slope of 3. where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. In this case, the equation y=3x+5 is already in slope intercept form, which means the slope is 3.
