Answer:

a) 0,125 pounds/day

b) 8 days to eat one pound

Step-by-step explanation:

If Jason eats 10 ounces of candy in 5 days it meas that he eats 2 onces in a day

Then 16 ounces = 1 pound

2 ounces ⇒ x

x = 2/16 ⇒ x =1/8 ⇒ x = 0,125 pounds per day

Now he eats 2 ounces per day to eats 1 poun (16 ounces) he needs 8 days

Answer:

a). 0.125 pounds

b). 8 days

Step-by-step explanation:

a). How many pounds he eats in a day

If Jason eat 10 ounces in 5 days, then to get the amount of ounces he eats in one day, we take (10 ounces×1 day)/5 days=2 ounces

Since 16 ounces=1 pound, then expressing 2 ounces in form of pound we get= (2×1)/16=0.125 pounds

b)How long it will take to eat 1 pound

Since he takes 1 day to eat 0.125 pounds of candy, then in order to eat 1 pound we will have; (1 pound×1 day)/0.125 pounds=8 days

Yo sup??

The given points are (1,1),(1,3) and (9,2)

equation of circle is

8x²+8y²+ax+by=0

let us plug in (1,1) in the equation we get

8+8+a+b=0

a+b=-16

let us now plug in (1,3) in the equation

8+8*3²+a+3b=0

a+3b=-80

let us. now solve the two equation in terms of a and b

we get

2b=--64

b=-32

and

a=-16+32

=16

therefore the equation is

8x²+8y²+16x-32y=0

I need help this is a tangent and secant problem and I'm confused

Luda [366]

<h3>Answer: 110 degrees</h3>

======================================================

Work Shown:

x = measure of minor arc CL

angle J = ( (far arc) - (near arc) )/2

angle J = ((red arc) - (yellow arc))/2

angle J = ( (minor arc CL) - (minor arc CK) )/2

35 = ( x - 40 )/2

35*2 = x-40

70 = x-40

x-40 = 70

x = 70+40

x = 110

Minor arc CL = 110 degrees

Pierre uses 30 grams of chocolate to make

Travka [436]

Pierre can make 3 liters of chocolate sauce from 450 grams of chocolate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Chocolate used to make 200 ml of chocolate sauce = 30 grams

Ratio of chocolate to milliliters of chocolate sauce = 30:200

Let,

x be the milliliters of sauce made from 450 grams of chocolate

Ratio of chocolate to ml of sauce = x:450

Using proportion;

Ratio of chocolate to ml of sauce:: ratio of chocolate to ml of sauce

$30:200::450:x$

Product of extreme = Product of mean

$30*x=200*450\\30x=90000$

Dividing both sides by 30

$\frac{30x}{30}=\frac{90000}{30}\\x=3000$

450 grams of chocolate will make 3000 milliliters of chocolate sauce.

We will convert this in liters.

1 liter = 1000 ml

3000 ml = $\frac{3000}{1000}$ = 3 liters

Pierre can make 3 liters of chocolate sauce from 450 grams of chocolate.
