The scale factor is the ratio  (a comparison of two numbers).

Note that 1 pint = 2 cups.

If a smoothie recipe calls for 8 pints of mango juice that is 8·2=16 cups, but only 10 cups of mango juice are available, then you have less than is needed and you have to multiply the other ingredients in the recipe by number that is less than 1 in order to decrease their amounts.

Thus, the scale factor is

\dfrac{10}{16}=\dfrac{5}{8}.

Answer: the other ingredients in the recipe need to be multiplied by \dfrac{5}{8}.

Rozalie spent $26 at a parking garage in downtown Orlando. The garage charged a base free of $7.50 for the first hour and a hour
bagirrra123 [75]
ANSWER : Rozalie spent 6.73 hours at the garage


rate of change = $2.75
base fee = $7.50

set up your equation:
2.75h + 7.5 = 26
($2.75/hour plus the base fee of $7.50 equals the total amount spent, $26)

Now just solve for h

2.75h + 7.5 = 26
2.75h = 18.5
h = 6.727273 (rounded)
h = 6.73

So the answer would be Rozalie spent about 6.73 hours at the garage.

Evaluate each expression if a = 6, b = 3, and c = 2.
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

a = 6, b = 3, and c = 2

1. ab1 = 6 × 3 × 1 = 18

2. c + 42 = 2 + 42 = 44

3. 18 = 18

4. a − b4  = 6 - 3(4) = 6 - 12 = - 6

5. 2c3 = 2 × 2 × 3 = 12

6. b ÷ 35 = 3÷35 = 0.086

7. a − 1 6 =  6 - 16 = -10

8. 6 + c8 = 6 + 2 (8) = 6 + 16 = 22

Simplify h= 105sin (0.0698(90+1)) + 105
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

h= 116.616

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

h= 105sin (0.0698(90+1)) + 105

step 1

Solve (90+1)

h= 105sin (0.0698(91)) + 105

step 2

Solve 0.0698(91)

h= 105sin (6.3518) + 105

step 3

Solve sin (6.3518)

h= 105(0.11063) + 105

step 4

Solve 105(0.11063)

h= 11.616 + 105

step 5

Solve 11.616 + 105

h= 116.616

Which method is the best way to solve the system shown below? 3x + 4y = 12 3x - 4y = 5
densk [106]

Answer:

3x + 4y = 12 \\ 3x - 4y = 5 \\ 6x = 17 \\ x =  \frac{17}{6}  \\ 3 \times   \frac{17}{5}  - 4y = 5  \\ 51 \div 5 - 4y = 5 \\  \\ 10.2 - 5 = 4y \\ y =  \frac{5.2}{4}
