Given that the hot chocolate is made of 480 grams of milk and 20 grams of cacao.

We need to determine the percentage of cacao in hot chocolate.

The percentage of cacao:

The total grams of hot chocolate can be determined by adding the total grams of milk and the total grams of cacao.

Total grams of hot chocolate = Grams of Milk + Grams of cacao

Total grams of hot chocolate = 480 + 20 = 500 grams.

Thus, the total grams of hot chocolate is 500 grams.

Now, we shall find the percentage of cacao.

The percentage of cacao is given by

$\frac{100}{500}\times 20$

Simplifying, the values, we get,

$\frac{2000}{500}=4\%$

Thus, the percentage of cacao is 4%

A rational number can be written as the ratio of one blank to another and be represented by a repeating or blank decimal. What a

Makovka662 [10]

The answer is a rational number is one integer divided by another, and can be represented in either decimal of fraction form. The explanation behind this is visualize you are using long division to divide one number by one more. You divide, and then you acquire a remainder. Then you carry down a zero (multiply by ten) and divide again. Well, there are only so many balances you could perhaps have. For example, for 5, your choices are 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4. Sooner or later, you will replicate a remainder, at which fact you will just keep dividing the same method you did last time you saw that remainder -- and that's the reason why it repeats.

How do you solve ? 2(x−(3+2x)+9)=3x−8

PIT_PIT [208]

Hey there!!

Given equation :

... 2 ( x - ( 3 + 2x ) + 9 ) = 3x - 8

Using the distributive property.

... 2 ( x - 3 - 2x + 9 ) = 3x - 8

... 2 ( -x + 6 ) = 3x - 8

Using the distributive property.

... -2x + 12 = 3x - 8

Subtracting 12 on both sides.

... -2x = 3x - 8 - 12

... -2x = 3x - 20

Subtracting 3x on both sides.

... -2x - 3x = -20

... -5x = -20

Dividing by -5 on both sides.

... x = -20 / -5

... x = 4

Hence, the answer is 4.

Hope my answer helps!

Can someone answer this please

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

4^(-11)

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide powers, subtract the exponents.

4^(-2) / 4^9

-2-9=-11

So, the answer is 4^(-11), which is basically 4 to the eleventh power.

Find the slope of the line 2x-4y=2

FrozenT [24]

Get y by itself so subtract 2x from both sides. So next it would be -4y=-2x+2. To get y by itself divide both sides by -4. So then it would be y= -2/-4x +2/-4. They both reduce down to y=1/2x-1/2. So the slope is 1/2 because the formula y=mx+b
m=slope. Hope this helps! :)

Evaluate (x + y)0 for x = 4 and y = 3.

Ksju [112]

Sice you are multiply by zero the answer is 0 because any number time 0 is 0. 3+4 =7 then times 0
