I am not sure about the formula but if you subtract 8,884 from 10,712 you get 1,828. Then, if you divide that by 4 you get 457. 457 fph(feet per hour) should be the climbers vertical speed.

Answer:

Flour $5\dfrac{1}{2}\ c$

Sugar $2\dfrac{2}{3}\ c$

Butter $1\dfrac{1}{2}\ c$

Eggs $2$

Baking powder $7\ t$

Vanilla extract $3\ t$

Step-by-step explanation:

There will be 16 people at the party. Each person will eat 3 cookies, so all people will eat $16\cdot 3=48$ cookies.

Given cookie recipe makes 24 cookies, so to make 48 cookies you need

$48:24=2$ portions.

Thus,

1 portion 2 portions

Flour $2 \dfrac{3}{4}\ c$ $2\dfrac{3}{4}\cdot 2=2\cdot 2+\dfrac{3}{4}\cdot 2=4+\dfrac{3}{2}=4+1 \dfrac{1}{2}=5\dfrac{1}{2}\ c$

Sugar $1\dfrac{1}{3}\ c$ $1\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 2=1\cdot 2+\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 2=2+\dfrac{2}{3}=2\dfrac{2}{3}\ c$

Butter $\dfrac{3}{4}\ c$ $\dfrac{3}{4}\cdot 2=\dfrac{3}{2}=1\dfrac{1}{2}\ c$

Eggs $1$ $1\cdot 2=2$

Powder $3\dfrac{1}{2}\ t$ $3\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 2=3\cdot 2+\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 2=6+1=7\ t$

Vanilla $1\dfrac{1}{2}\ t$ $1\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 2=1\cdot 2+\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 2=2+1=3\ t$

Blocks numbered 0-9 are placed in a box and a black is randomly picked the probability of picking an odd prime number is

Andrews [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$B_n = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9\\B_p = 2, 3, 5, 7\\B_{o_p} = 3, 5, 7\\$

There are 3 odd primes, namely : 3, 5, 7

The total amount of blocks is 9

The odds of picking and odd prime is $\frac{3}{9} \cdot 100\% = 33,(3)\%$
