Answer:

6 ounces of oil

Step-by-step explanation:

Well the first salad dressing is probably 8 ounces because 2+6 = 8

Then we must find out how large this recipe compares to the original

24/8 = 3

So we need all the ingredients to be tripled to keep the same ratio of 2:6

The new dressing has 2*3 ounces of oil and 6*3 ounces of vinegar

which equals 6 ounces of oil and 18 ounces of vinegar.

Hope this helps!

Save Work out the size of angle AED.<br> b) Work out x
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

x = 10°

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Since, opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary angles"

   Therefore, in cyclic quadrilateral ABDE,

   m∠ABD + m∠AED = 180°

   110° + m∠AED = 180°

   m∠AED = 180° - 110°

                 = 70°

b). AD = ED [Given]

   m∠EAD = m∠AED [Since, opposite angles of equal sides are equal in measure]

   m∠EAD = m∠AED = 70°

   By triangle sum theorem in ΔABD,

   m∠BAD + m∠ABD + m∠ADB = 180°

   m∠BAD + 110° + 40° = 180°

   m∠BAD = 180 - 150

                 = 30°

    m∠AEB = m∠AED + m∠DAB [By angles addition postulate]

    m∠AEB = 70° + 30°          

                  = 100°

    By triangle sum theorem in the large triangle,

    x° + m∠AEB + m∠EAB = 180°

    x° + 100° + 70° = 180°

    x = 180 - 170

    x = 10°

A friend has a 83% average before the final exam for a course. That score includes everything but the final, which counts for 25
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

\mathrm{Best\:course\:grade\:possible:\:}87.25\%,\\\mathrm{Minimum\:score\:on\:final\:to\:earn\:at\:least\:a\:75\%\:for\:the\:course:\:}51\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the maximum score for the final is 100\%, we can multiply each score by its respective course weight and add them together to give a final score. If your friend did receive this maximum score of 100\%, their overall grade for the course would be:

83(1-0.25)+100(0.25)=\fbox{$87.25\%$}.

To find the minimum score they need to earn a 75% for the course, we set up the following equation:

83(1-0.25)+x(0.25)=75, where x is the minimum score she needs.

Solving, we get:

62.25+x(0.25)=75,\\x(0.25)=12.75,\\x=\fbox{$51\%$}.
