You can use a proportion for each ingredient.

Milk:
2 2/3 cup are to 6 people as x cups are to 8 people

(2 2/3)/6 = x/8

(8/3)/6 = x/8

6x = 8 * 8/3

6x = 64/3

x = 32/9 = 3 5/9

3 5/9 cups of milk

Oil:
1/4 cup is to 6 people as x cups are to 8 people

(1/4)/6 = x/8

6x = 8 * 1/4

6x = 2

x = 2/6 = 1/3

1/3 cup of milk

Two angles are supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180.
anastassius [24]
True.

two angles would be complementary if the sum of their angle measures is 90 degrees.

60 degrees and 30 degrees make a complementary angle while 90 and 90 degrees make a supplementary angle.

Question 6 (1 point)
Shalnov [3]
2. Dividing exponential expression with the same base is what the left hand fractional expression is. Z^8/Z^?=z^6. Since all the bases are the same. To get the exponential power 6 on the right we subtract the denominator’s (bottom part of the fraction) exponential power (on the left) from the numerator’s (top part) exponential power.

Then, 8 - ? = 6? 2 is the only number to make the left equal the right side. This, z^8/z^2=z^6

Suppose that you have eight cards. Five are green and three are yellow. The five green cards are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that you have eight cards. Five are green and three are yellow. The five green cards are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The three yellow cards are numbered 1, 2, and 3. The cards are well shuffled. You randomly draw one card.

G = card drawn is green

Y = card drawn is yellow

E = card drawn is even-numbered

List:

Sample space = {G1, G2, G3, G4, G5, Y1, Y2, Y3}

2) P(G) = 5/8

3) P(G/E) = P(GE)/P(E)

GE = {G2, G4}

Hence P(G/E) = 2/5

4) GE = {G2, G4}

P(GE) = 2/8 = 1/4

5) P(G or E) = P(G)+P(E)-P(GE)

= 5/8 + 3/8-2/8 = 3/5

6) No there is common element as G2 and G4

Cannot be mutually exclusive
