Given:
Each cabinet has 5 drawers.
Each drawer can hold records for 50 clients.

Now,
Each cabinet can hold records for (50 × 5) clients
                                                 = 250 clients

Now,
Using unitary method,
250 clients records can be held up in 1 file cabinet.
1 client records can be held up in (1 / 250) file cabinet
600 client records can be held up in (1 / 250) × 600 file cabinet
                                                   = 2.4

So, <u>we need 3 file cabinets</u>...cause we cant't get 2.4 file cabinet

1 drawer= 50 clients
I used ratio and proportion first

1 drawer/50 clients= x drawers/600 clients
cross multiply
50x= 600
x= 12 drawers
12 drawers/5 per cabinet=
2/25 or 2.4
need to order 3 cabinets

hope this helps

a half cup of pancakes mix has 5% total daily allowance of cholesterol. the total daily allowance of cholesterol 300 mg. how muc
arsen [322]
Hi there!

Since we know that the pancake mix has 5% of the daily allowance, which is 300 mg, we can just multiply 300 mg with 5 percent to get our answer.

First, let's divide 5% by 100% to know what we are going to multiply 300 mg with.

5% / 100% = 0.05

Let's multiply 300 mg with 0.05

0.05 * 300 = 15 mg

Thus, a 1/2 cup of pancake mix has 15 mg of cholesterol.

Have an awesome day! :)

For f(10) replace x with 10 then solve:
f10) = 10^2 + 1
= 100 +1
= 101

Functions f(x) and g(x) are shown below:.
kobusy [5.1K]
       First we will find the derivative of each function and equate it to zero.
       f` ( x ) = 6 x + 12
       6 x + 12 = 0
       6 x = - 12
       x = - 2
       f ( - 2 ) 0 12 - 24 + 16 = 4
       f ( x ) min = 4
       g` ( x ) = 4 cos (  2 x - π )
       4 cos ( 2 x - π ) = 0
       cos ( 2 x - π ) = 0
       2 x - π = 3π / 2
       2 x = 5π /2
       x = 5π/4
       g ( 5π/4 ) = 2 sin ( 5π/2 - π ) + 4 = 2 ( sin 3π/2 ) + 4 = -2 + 4 = 2
       g ( x ) min = 2 ( this is the smallest minimum value )
