A recipe calls for 5/8 cups butter. Angie wants to triple the recipe but she has only 1 1/4 cups of butter

The recipe calls for 5/8 cups butter and Angie wants to triple the recipe.

Therefore, if Angie is tripling the recipe, she is multiplying all of the ingredients in the recipe by 3.

So for the butter, this would be:

5/8 * 3 = 15/8 

Next, we should turn this improper fraction into a mixed number so that we can compare it to the amount of butter that Angie has.

15/8 = 1 7/8 

1 7/8 > 1 1/4

Thus, Angie DOES NOT have enough butter to triple the recipe.

Suppose a die is tossed 5 times. what is the probability of getting exactly 2 fours?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of obtaining a number that is four = ¹/₆

The probability of obtaining a non 4 number = 1 - ¹/₆ = ⁵/₆

The number of ways 2 fours can be arrange in five numbers = ⁵C₂ = 10 ways

If the die is tossed five times, the probability of the events is calculated as;

P = 10 x (¹/₆)² x (⁵/₆)³

P = 10 x (¹/₃₆) x  (¹²⁵/₂₁₆)

P = 10 x 0.02778 x 0.5787

P = 0.16

Therefore, the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16

A bank loaned out $8200, part of it at a rate of 7.9% per year and the rest of it at a rate of 7.4% per year. The total amount o
Lady bird [3.3K]

The amount that the bank loaned out at 7.9% is $1,574.00

How do represent the amounts lent at different rates?

On the assumption that x amount was loaned at 7.9% and that the remaining amount, (8,200-x) was loan out at 7.4%, we can determine the interest charged on each loan as the loan multiplied by the interest rate

interest on 7.9% loan=7.9%*x=0.079x

interest on 7.4% loan=7.4%*(8200-x)

interest on 7.4% loan=606.80-0.074x

total interest=0.079x+606.80-0.074x

total interest=0.005x+606.80

total interest on loans=614.67

614.67=0.005x+606.80

614.67-606.80=0.005x

7.87=0.005x

x=7.87/0.005

x=amount loaned at 7.9%=$1,574.00

y=$8200-$1574

y=$6,626.00
