Answer:

53 cupcakes

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the amount of frosting and divide by the amount needed per cupcake

431/8

53.875

We round down since we cannot frost part of a cupcake

Answer:

53 cupcakes

Step-by-step explanation:

He has a total of 431 ounces and each cupcake needs 8 ounces of frosting. Therefore can divide the total amount of frosting (431 ounces) by the amount per cupcake (8 ounces)

total amount/ amount per cupcake

431 ounces/8 ounces

431/8

53.875

0.875, or a fraction/part of a cupcake can’t be frosted, so we should round down to the nearest whole number.

53

He can frost 53 cupcakes.

The population of California is approximately 38,040,000. The population of Texas is about 2.606 × 10^7. What is the approximate
ivann1987 [24]
With scientific notation remember this rule; if the exponent is positive, move the decimal point that many places to the right. If it is negative move it that many places to the left. What that will do is make the number larger or smaller to the correct value.
 
So for example, if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^4 you would move the decimal four places to the right. So you would end up with 10200. 
As another example if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^-2 you would move the decimal two places to the left. That would give you .0120. 

So now we are onto your problem. 2.606 x 10^7.
You would move the decimal seven places to the right, because the exponent is positive, that will make your number larger(which would make more sense if you were adding populations, right?).
That would give you 26,060,000 people living in Texas.
From there simply add the two populations together and you will have your answer!

Police Chase: A speeder traveling 40 miles per hour (in a 25 mph zone) passes a stopped police car which immediately takes off a
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

a. 18.34 s b. 327.92 m

Step-by-step explanation:

a. How long before the police car catches the speeder who continued traveling at 40 miles/hour

The acceleration of the car a in 10 s from 0 to 55 mi/h is a = (v - u)/t where u = initial velocity = 0 m/s, v = final velocity = 55 mi/h = 55 × 1609 m/3600 s = 24.58 m/s and t = time = 10 s.

So, a =  (v - u)/t =  (24.58 m/s - 0 m/s)/10 s = 24.58 m/s ÷ 10 s = 2.458 m/s².

The distance moved by the police car in 10 s is gotten from

s = ut + 1/2at² where u = initial velocity of police car = 0 m/s, a = acceleration = 2.458 m/s² and t = time = 10 s.

s = 0 m/s × 10 s + 1/2 × 2.458 m/s² (10)²

s = 0 m + 1/2 × 2.458 m/s² × 100 s²

s = 122.9 m

The distance moved when the police car is driving at 55 mi/h is s' = 24.58 t where t = driving time after attaining 55 mi/h

The total distance moved by the police car is thus S = s + s' = 122.9 + 24.58t

The total distance moved by the speeder is S' = 40t' mi = (40 × 1609 m/3600 s)t' =  17.88t' m where t' = time taken for police to catch up with speeder.

Since both distances are the same,

S' = S

17.88t' = 122.9 + 24.58t

Also, the time  taken for the police car to catch up with the speeder, t' = time taken for car to accelerate to 55 mi/h + rest of time taken for police car to catch up with speed, t

t' = 10 + t

So, substituting t' into the equation, we have

17.88t' = 122.9 + 24.58t

17.88(10 + t) = 122.9 + 24.58t

178.8 + 17.88t = 122.9 + 24.58t

17.88t - 24.58t = 122.9 - 178.8

-6.7t = -55.9

t = -55.9/-6.7

t = 8.34 s

So, t' = 10 + t

t' = 10 + 8.34

t' = 18.34 s

So, it will take 18.34 s before the police car catches the speeder who continued traveling at 40 miles/hour

b. how far before the police car catches the speeder who continued traveling at 40 miles/hour

Since the distance moved by the police car also equals the distance moved by the speeder, how far the police car will move before he catches the speeder is given by S' = 17.88t' = 17.88 × 18.34 s = 327.92 m
