Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the shaded area. Ignore the fact that something is missing.
L = 16
w = 8
Area = L*w Substitute the givens
Area = 16*8
Area = 128
Now consider the white area. It has a "length" of 4 and a width of 8
L = 4
w = 8
Area = 32
Now subtract 32 from 128
Area of shaded part = 128 - 32
Answer: 96 mm^2
Approximate conversions for cooking are ...
1 tsp ≈ 5 mL, so 1/2 tsp is about 2.5 mL
1 Tbsp ≈ 15 mL
1 cup ≈ 240 mL, so 1 1/2 cups ≈ 355 mL*
1 1/2 lb ≈ 680 g
_____
* 1 cup is about 236.6 mL.
_____
Many cookbooks have tables of equivalents.
Answer: x is 20
Step-by-step explanation:
This is ratio
a : c = b : x and d : unknown
a : c = 9 : 12 = 3 : 4 which is 9/12
b : x = 15 : x which is 15 / x
So the proportion will be :
3/4 = 15/x
So Cross multiplying
3x = 90
Divide both side by 3
x = 90/3
x = 20
Answer:
<em>5 ≤ 4x - 2.5</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Inequalities</u>
The expression "no greater than" can be better expressed as "less or equal than".
The expression 4 times a number, being x the unknown number can be written: 4x
Thus, the equivalent inequality of the sentence is:
5 ≤ 4x - 2.5
Answer: $12,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Miguel makes 6% on every sale he makes and wants to make $600 in commissions.
The amount he needs to sell is therefore the amount that has $600 as 5% of it.
Assume the amount of insurance needed is x.
x * 5% = 600
x = 600 / 5%
x = $12,000
