Answer:
f=21-16, 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Just subtract 16 from both sides to get 5 as the solution
Short answer 48 cookies
Remark
This is an extremely valuable question if you are going to take chemistry at some point. You have to calculate all three to see what the limiting ingredient is.
Flour
Assuming that all of the flour will be used, you set up a proportion to find out how many cookies will be produced.
1.5 cups of flour / 15 cookies = 5 cups of flour / x Cross multiply
1.5 x = 15 * 5
1.5 x = 75 Divide by 1.5
x = 75/1.5
x = 50 cookies are possible
Sugar
Now you must do the same thing with the sugar
1.25 pounds sugar/15 cookies = 4 / x Cross multiply
1.25 x = 4 * 15
1.25 x = 60 Divide both sides by 1.25
x = 60/1.25
x = 48 cookies possible with 4 pounds of sugar.
Butter
0.5 pounds of butter/15 cookies = 1.75 pounds of butter /x Cross Multiply
0.5 * x = 15 * 1.75
0.5 * x = 26.25 Divide by 0.5
x = 26.25 / 0.5
x = 52.5 Cookies.
Conclusion
The limiting ingredient is the sugar. You can only make 48 cookies with that amount of sugar.
So you will have left over flower. You will have left over butter (even if you round down). But you will use all your sugar. It is the least amount.
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
18/n = 21/28 You can cancel, but calculators make that unnecessary. Cross multiply
21n = 18 * 28
21n = 504 Divide by 21
n = 504 / 21
n = 24
==================
12/16 = n / 64 Cross Multiply
16n = 12 * 64
16n = 768 Divide by 16
n = 768/16
n = 48
Yo sup??
Area of trapezium=1/2*(sum of opposite sides)*(height of trapezium)
=1/2*(12.5+17.5)*6
=1/2*30*6
=90 cm²
Therefore the correct answer is option A
Hope this helps.
