Answer:
5.25 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Beverage A and Beverage B are sold in identical cans.
From the above question
Beverage A is 4% sugar.
The portion of Beverage B that is sugar is 0.21.
Converting Portion of sugar in Beverage B to percentage we have :
0.21 × 100
= 21%
How many times more sugar is in Beverage B than Beverage A?
This is calculated as:
% Beverage B/% Beverage A
= 21%/4%
= 5.25
Hence Beverage B has 5.25 times more sugar than Beverage A.
Answer:
8/7 divided by 9/7=8/9
Let
x---------> the length side of rectangle
y---------> the width side of rectangle
we know that
x=2y-----> equation 1
area=x*y-------> 28800=x*y------> equation 2
substitute 1 in 2
28800=[2y]*y-----> 28800=2y²-------> y²=14400------> y=120 m
x=2*y----> x=2*120------> x=240 m
the answer is
the length side of rectangle is 240 m
the width side of rectangle is 120 m
Answer:
C. In step 2, Cindy should have multiplied both sides of the equation by 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll go through the equation correctly, and then point out what would have happened.
3 = x/2 - 5
Add 5 to both sides. -5 and 5 cancel out.
8 = x/2
What Cindy should have done here is multiply by 2, not divide by 2. It is important to remember that you do the INVERSE operation to cancel out a number.
What would have happened here is that we have an extra step (though either way we still end up with x being 16.)
Correct Step 2:
Multiply both sides by 2. x/2 and 2x cancel out.
x = 16
Incorrect Step 2:
8/2 = (x/2)/2
4 = x/4
Multiply both sides by 4 (this would be the extra step!).
16 = x
Answer:
the answer to this problem would be 8.
