7.5 cups sugar will be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Recipe calls 5 cups of sugar and 2 cups of brown sugar.

After enlarging 3 cups brown sugar is used.

To find the amount of sugar

Solution

2 cups enlarging into 3 cups

That means, $\frac{3}{2}$ times it's increasing.

Hence, 5 cups of sugar is also increasing by $\frac{3}{2}$ times

So, amount of sugar = 5× $\frac{3}{2}$ = $\frac{15}{2}$ = 7.5 cups

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the y-int is (0, 4), you know you have to have an equation that has a +4 in it. When you calculate for the slope, you should get 4/3, and so the only equation that has those 2 is G.

1/4(z +3z)+ 7=−z + 1 please help with this ive been stuck

madam [21]

First, simplify the parenthesis. You’ll get:
1/4(4z)+7=-z+1

Then multiply 1/4 by 4z. You’ll get:
z+7=-z+1

Love like terms to the same side. I wanted to have the variable positive on time, so I moved variables to the left and constants to the right. You’ll get:
2z=-6

Divide both sides by 2. You’ll get :
z=-3

A tattoo enthusiast website claims that :

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The probability that a person is a Millennial given that they have tattoos is 0.5069 (50.69%) or about 0.51 (51%).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have here a case where we need to use Bayes' Theorem and all conditional probabilities related. Roughly speaking, a conditional probability is a kind of probability where an event determines the occurrence of another event. Mathematically:

$\\ P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}$

In the case of the Bayes' Theorem, we have also a conditional probability where one event is the sum of different probabilities.

We have a series of different probabilities that we have to distinguish one from the others:

The probability that a person has a tattoo assuming that is a Millennial is:

$\\ P(T|M) = 0.47$

The probability that a person has a tattoo assuming that is of Generation X is:

$\\ P(T|X) = 0.36$

The probability that a person has a tattoo assuming that is of Boomers is:

$\\ P(T|B) = 0.13$

The probability of being of Millennials is:

$\\ P(M) = 0.22$

The probability of being of Generation X is:

$\\ P(X) = 0.20$

The probability of being of Boomers is:

$\\ P(B) = 0.22$

Therefore, the probability of the event of having a tattoo P(T) is:

$\\ P(T) = P(T|M)*P(M) + P(T|X)*P(X) + P(T|B)*P(B)$

$\\ P(T) = 0.47*0.22 + 0.36*0.20 + 0.13*0.22$

$\\ P(T) = 0.204$

For non-independent events that happen at the same time, we can say that the probability of occurring simultaneously is:

$\\ P(M \cap T) = P(M|T)*P(T)$

$\\ P(T \cap M) = P(T|M)*P(M)$

But

$\\ P(M \cap T) = P(T \cap M)$

Then

$\\ P(M|T)*P(T) = P(T|M)*P(M)$

We are asked for the probability that a person is a Millennial given or assuming that they have tattoos or P(M | T). Solving the previous formula for the latter:

$\\ P(M|T)*P(T) = P(T|M)*P(M)$

$\\ P(M|T) = \frac{P(T|M)*P(M)}{P(T)}$
