Answer:

5/2cups

Step-by-step explanation:

If a recipe serves 6 and calls for 3/4cups, arecipe that serves 20, will call for (20×3/4)/6 cups. Mathematically;

6recipe = 3/4cups

20recipe = x

Cross multiplying we have;

6x = 20×3/4

6x = 15

x = 15/6

x = 5/2

This means a recipe that serves 20 will call for 5/2cups

Answer:

Hence the dimensions are 5×5 i.e. 5 meters and 5 meters such that its field would be as large as possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

Darek's dad has a 20 m fencing mesh.

Since we have to make a rectangular garden with he help of fencing the garden using this mesh, that means perimeter of this garden is 20 m.

i.e. 2( l+b)=20

also we have to fenced in such a way that its field would be as large as possible.

ie. it has the largest Area.

Now we will start from the dimensions possible as:

9×1 whose area will 9 m^2 (since Area=l×b)

Next dimension will be:

8×2 whose area will be 16 m^2

Next will be:

7×3 whose area will be 21 m^2

Next will be:

6×4 whose area will be 24 m^2

Next will be:

5×5 whose area will be 25 m^2

Next will be:

4×6 whose area will be same as of 6×4.

Hence, we get the maximum area to be 25 m^2 which is obtained when the dimensions are 5×5.

At the end of a recent WNBA regular season, the Phoenix murmur had 12 more victories than losses. The number of victories they h

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

34 games

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of losses be $l$

let the number of victories be $v$

the Phoenix murmur had 12 more victories than losses:

$v=l+12$

The number of victories they had was one more than two times the number of losses:

$v=2l+1$

We have 2 expressions for $v$ , equating these 2, we can solve for $l$ :

$l+12=2l+1\\12-1=2l-l\\11=l$

So 11 games, they lost.

Using this value, we can plug into the 1st equation to solve for v:

$v=l+12\\v=11+12\\v=23$

So 23 games, they won.

Given that no draws, they played a total of 23 + 11 = 34 games this season
