Answer:

Each container = 1 3/4 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

*** There are 8 3/4 cups of stew that MUST be put into five containers EQUALLY.

*** We are basically required to calculate the number of cups of stew that must be in each container.

Since 8 3/4 cups of stew needs to be equally distributed and placed in just about five containers, we will need to first convert 8 3/4 cups which is in mixed fraction into improper fraction in order to enable us to calculate successfully.

8 3/4 = [(4×8)+3]/4

= 35/4

We will now use a little bit of the principle of proportion to get through this:

If 8 3/4 cups must be equal in five containers, then one container will have ? number of cups:-

5 containers --------- 35/4 cups

1 container ---------- ? cups.

1/5 × 35/4

= 7/4 cups.

We will now convert it back to mixed fractions and we will have 1 3/4 cups.

Therefore, each container we will contain 1 3/4 cups

Answer:

1 3/4 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to be able to equally divide the stew into 5 containers we need to turn everything into the same format, in this case it would be by multiplying the whole number and the denominator and then adding the numerator like so

(8 * 4) + 3 =  \frac{35}{4}

Now we can divide the numerator by 5 (container) in order to calculate how much stew each container will get.

\frac{35}{4} / 5 = \frac{7}{4}

So each container will get 7/4 of the Stew or 1 3/4 cups

Ab + c = d solve for B
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

b = (d-c)/a

Step-by-step explanation:

ab + c = d

We want to solve for b, so we need to get b alone

Subtract c from each side

ab+c-c = d-c

ab = (d-c)

Divide each side by a

ab/a = (d-c)/a

b = (d-c)/a

Manuela solved the equation 3−2|0.5x 1.5|=2 for one solution. her work is shown below. 3−2|0.5x 1.5|=2 −2|0.5x 1.5|=−1 |0.5x 1.5
irakobra [83]

The other solution to the absolute value equation 3 − 2|0.5x + 1.5| = 2 is x = -4

<h3>How to determine the solution?</h3>

The equation is given as:

3 − 2|0.5x + 1.5| = 2

Subtract 3 from both sides

-2|0.5x + 1.5| = -1

Divide both sides by -2

|0.5x + 1.5| = 0.5

Expand the equation

0.5x + 1.5 = 0.5 or 0.5x + 1.5 = -0.5

Subtract 1.5 from both sides

0.5x = -1 or 0.5x = -2

Divide both sides by 0.5

x = -2 or x = -4

Hence, the other solution to the absolute value equation 3 − 2|0.5x + 1.5| = 2 is x = -4

Answer:

They are identical triangles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

The triangle with 39 and 90 has a missing angle of 51 degrees, and the triangle with 51 and 90 vice versa.
