Answer=15:39

Step1(find the number of right handed batters)

Left-handed batters=45

 5    45
__=___
8      x


Cross multiply
5x=360
divide both sides by 5
x=72
Right-handed batters=72

Step 2 (find the number of total batters)
total batters=45+72=117

Step3 (find the ratio of left handed batters to total batters)

Left-handed batters to total batters= 45/117
45/117 can be shortened to 15/39

Answer=15:39

Ann recipe produces the sandwiches with the most peanut butter flavor

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

1. Ann uses 12 1/4 ounces of peanut butter to make 50 1/2 Sandwiches

2. Ben uses 7 1/4 ounces of peanut butter to make 48 1/2

3. Cal uses 15 1/2 ounces of peanut butter to make 85 1/2 sandwiches

To find whose recipe produces the sandwiches with the most peanut

butter flavor we must find the quantity of butter per sandwich in each

recipe

∵ Ann uses 12.25 ounces of peanut butter to make 50.5 Sandwiches

- Divide the quantity of butter by the number of sandwiches

∵ 12.25 ÷ 50.5 = 0.2426 ounce per sandwich

Ann recipe produces the sandwiches with 0.2426 ounce per sandwich

∵ Ben uses 7.25 ounces of peanut butter to make 48.5 Sandwiches

- Divide the quantity of butter by the number of sandwiches

∵ 7.25 ÷ 48.5 = 0.1495 ounce per sandwich

Ben recipe produces the sandwiches with 0.1495 ounce per sandwich

∵ Cal uses 15.5 ounces of peanut butter to make 85.5 Sandwiches

- Divide the quantity of butter by the number of sandwiches

∵ 15.5 ÷ 85.5 = 0.1813 ounce per sandwich

Cal recipe produces the sandwiches with 0.1813 ounce per sandwich

∵ The greatest quantity of butter per sandwich is 0.2426 ounce

∴ Ann recipe produces the sandwiches with the most peanut

  butter flavor

Ann recipe produces the sandwiches with the most peanut butter flavor

In the diagram shown of circle A, tangent MB is drawn along with chords BAC and BF . Secant MFE intersects BAC at G. It is known
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

  • arc BF = 76°
  • ∠M = 31°
  • ∠BGE = 121°
  • ∠MFB = 111°

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) ∠FBM is the complement of ∠FBC, so is ...

  ∠FBM = 90° -52° = 38°

The measure of arc BF is twice this angle, so is ...

  arc BF = 2∠FBM = 2(38°)

  arc BF = 76°

__

(b) ∠M is half the difference between the measures of arcs BE and BF, so is ...

  ∠M = (1/2)(138° -76°) = 62°/2

  ∠M = 31°

__

(c) arc FC is the supplement to arc BF, so has measure ...

  arc FC = 180° -arc BF = 180° -76° = 104°

∠BGE is half the sum of arcs BE and FC, so is ...

  ∠BGE = (1/2)(arc BE +arc FC) = (138° +104°)/2

  ∠BGE = 121°

__

(d) ∠MFB is the remaining angle in ∆MFB, so has measure ...

  ∠MFB = 180° -∠M -∠FBM = 180° -31° -38°

  ∠MFB = 111°
