Answer:

It takes 13\frac{1}{8} teaspoons of baking powder to make 5 dozen jumbo muffins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two quantities a and b are directly proportional if when multiplying or dividing one of them by a number, the other is multiplied or divided by that number. That is, if one magnitude grows, the other will grow in the same proportion; while if one magnitude decreases, the other will decrease in the same proportion.

The simple rule of three allows us to establish the relationship of proportionality between two known values ​​and, based on the knowledge of a third quantity, to calculate the value of the fourth.

In other words, it is necessary to know two magnitudes that will be proportional to each other, and a third magnitude, from which you want to find out, will be a fourth term through the relationship:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

Then: x=\frac{c*b}{a}

where a, b, and c are the known data, and x is the fourth unknown.

In this case, the rule of three can be applied as follows: if 1 dozen contains 12 muffins, 5 dozen jumbo muffins, how many muffins does it contain?

amount of jumbo muffins=\frac{5 dozen*12 jumbo muffins}{1 dozen}

amount of jumbo muffins= 60

Now you apply the following rule of three: if 8 jumbo blueberry muffins requires 1 3/4 ( or, which is the same, 7/4)teaspoons of baking powder, 60 jumbo muffins how many teaspoons of baking powder does it require?

teaspoons of baking powder=\frac{60*\frac{7}{4} }{8}

teaspoons of baking powder= \frac{105}{8} = 13\frac{1}{8}

<u><em>It takes </em></u>13\frac{1}{8}<u><em> teaspoons of baking powder to make 5 dozen jumbo muffins.</em></u>

The volume of a sphere can be found using the formula V = πr . If the sphere has a diameter of 10x y z mm, what is the volume of
viva [34]

Answer:

<em>500πx³y³z³ </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a sphere = 4πr³

r is the radius of the sphere

Given

Diameter of the sphere = 10xyz mm

Radius = diameter/2

Radius = 10xyz/2

Radius = 5xyz

Substitute the radius into the formula

Volume of the sphere = 4π(5xyz)³

Volume of the sphere = = 4π(125)x³y³z³

Volume of the sphere = 500πx³y³z³

<em>Hence the volume of the sphere is 500πx³y³z³ mm³</em>

The prime factors of a number are 2, 2, 2, and 5. What is the number?
fgiga [73]

Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 40 could be = 1 x 40, 2 x 20, 4 x 10, or 5 x 8.

The Factors of 40 will therefore be: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40.

The Prime factor then is: 2, 2, 2, 5

Multiplying them together gives 40.

What is the slope- intercept equation of the line that passes through(0,2) and (6,6)?
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

y = 2/3x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (6-2)/(6-0)

    =4/6

   =2/3

The slope intercept form of the equation for a line is

y= mx+b

y =2/3 x +b

We know the y intercept is 2  (the y intercept is when x=0)

y = 2/3x +2
