Sean used 1-3/4 cup of sugar to make a dozen brownies. How many cups of sugare are used for 6 dozen brownies?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

10 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to convert 1 3/4 to an improper fraction

1 3/4 = (4*1+3)/4 = 7/4

Multiply this by the number of batches

7/4*6 = 42/4 = 21/2

Change this back to a mixed number

2 goes into 21   10 times with 1 left over

10 1/2

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

2(x+8) = 40


Discussion:

Rewrite the original Question as

" Twice the (sum of a number and 8) is 40"   =>

2                ( x                              +    8 ) = 40 =>

2 (x+8) = 40


which is the third bullet point from the top


Thank you,

MrB

jenna's rectangular garden borders a wall. she buys 80 ft of fencing. what are the dimensions of the garden that will maximize i
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The  dimensions are x =20 and y=20 of the garden that will maximize its area is 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:-

let 'x' be the length  and the 'y' be the width of the rectangle

given Jenna's buys 80ft of fencing of rectangle so the perimeter of the rectangle is    2(x +y) = 80

                         x + y =40

                               y = 40 -x

now the area of the rectangle A = length X width

                                                  A = x y

substitute 'y' value in above A = x (40 - x)

                                              A = 40 x - x^2 .....(1)

<u>Step :2</u>

now differentiating equation (1) with respective to 'x'

                                      \frac{dA}{dx} = 40 -2x     ........(2)

<u>Find the dimensions</u>

<u></u>\frac{dA}{dx} = 0<u></u>

40 - 2x =0

40 = 2x

x = 20

and y = 40 - x = 40 -20 =20

The dimensions are x =20 and y=20

length = 20 and breadth = 20

<u>Step 3</u>:-

we have to find maximum area

Again differentiating equation (2) with respective to 'x' we get

\frac{d^2A}{dx^2} = -2

Now the maximum area A =  x y at x =20 and y=20

                                        A = 20 X 20 = 400

                                         

<u>Conclusion</u>:-

The  dimensions are x =20 and y=20 of the garden that will maximize its area is 400

<u>verification</u>:-

The perimeter = 2(x +y) =80

                           2(20 +20) =80

                              2(40) =80

                              80 =80

Through: (1,5), perp. to y=-1/10x + 3<br> pls help
Sedbober [7]
First to get the equation you knew to understand one thing about perpendicular lines. The slope of the line is the opposite reciprocal of the perpendicular lines or the new slope is m = 10.

Then you use the formula
y = mx + b
you plug in your values from the point and the new slope.
(1,5) with new slope m
5= 10(1)+b
5-10=b
-5 = b
then make your new equation
y = 10x -5
that's your line that goes through point (1,5) and is perpendicular to the line given
