So 1/3 cup is for 5 so
how much flower per dinner rol
1/3 divided by 5=(1/3)/5=1/3 times 1/5=1/15

1/15 cups used to make 1 dinner roll

with 5 and 2/3 cup
find how many 1/15 will fit
15/15=1 so 15 times 5=75
then 2/3 times 1 or 5/5=10/15 so
75+10=85 dinner rolls

Divide.

1/3 / 5

Or multiply by the reciprocal of 5:

1/3 * 1/5 = 1/15

Therefore 1/15 cup of flour is used to make 1 dinner roll.

We can set up a proportion:

5/1/3 = x/5 2/3

Multiply 5 2/3 to both sides:

28 1/3 / 1/3 = x

85 = x

So 85 rolls can be made with 5 2/3 cups of flour.

Answer 1:

It is given that the positive 2 digit number is 'x' with tens digit 't' and units digit 'u'.

So the two digit number x is expressed as,

$x=(10 \times t)+(1 \times u)$

$x=10t+u$

The two digit number 'y' is obtained by reversing the digits of x.

So, $y=(10 \times u)+(1 \times t)$

$y=10u+t$

Now, the value of x-y is expressed as:

$x-y=(10t+u)-(10u+t)$

$x-y=10t+u-10u-t$

$x-y=9t-9u$

$x-y=9(t-u)$

So, $9(t-u)$ is equivalent to (x-y).

Answer 2:

It is given that the sum of infinite geometric series with first term 'a' and common ratio r<1 = $\frac{a}{1-r}$

Since, the sum of the given infinite geometric series = 200

Therefore, $\frac{a}{1-r}=200$

Since, r=0.15 (given)

$\frac{a}{1-0.15}=200$

$\frac{a}{0.85}=200$

$a=0.85 \times 200$

a=170

The nth term of geometric series is given by $ar^{n-1}$ .

So, second term of the series = $ar^{2-1}$ = ar

Second term = $170 \times 0.15$

= 25.5

So, the second term of the geometric series is 25.5

6( 5-8x) +12= -54

UkoKoshka [18]

<span>6( 5-8x) +12= -54
30-48x+12=-54 this comes from distributing(multiplying) 6x5 and 6 times -8x
30+12-48x=-54 you have to add the coefficients 30+12
42-48x=-54
-42 -42
-----------------------
-48x=-96 divide by -48
x=2</span>
