Answer:

2 cakes with the sugar she has and there will still be some sugar left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of sugar in the cabinet of Cassie = 1/2 pound

Amount of sugar required by Cassie to make her cake recipe = 2/10 pound

= 1/5 pounds

Then

The number of cakes that Cassie can make = (1/2)/(1/5)

= 5/2

= 2 1/2

Four time a number r plus half a number s equals 12. Twice the number r plus one fourth of the numbers s equals 8. What are the

Snezhnost [94]

The system of equations have no solution.

Explanation:

The equations are $4r+\frac{1}{2}s=12$ and $2r+\frac{1}{4} s=8$

To find the two numbers, let us solve the equations using substitution method.

From the equation $2r+\frac{1}{4} s=8$ , let us determine the value of r,

$\begin{aligned} 2 r+\frac{1}{4} s &=8 \\ 2 r &=8-\frac{1}{4} s \\ r &=\frac{1}{2}\left(8-\frac{1}{4} s\right) \\ r &=4-\frac{1}{8} s \end{aligned}$

Let us substitute the value of r in $4r+\frac{1}{2}s=12$ , we get,

$\begin{aligned} 4\left(4-\frac{1}{8} s\right)+\frac{1}{2} s &=12 \\ 16-\frac{1}{2} s+\frac{1}{2} s &=12 \\ 16 &=12 \end{aligned}$

which is not possible.

This means that the system has no solution.

Find the missing value of x and y.

scoray [572]

Step-by-step explanation:

tan 60 = 21 ÷ y

1.73 = 21 ÷ y

y = 21 ÷ 1.73

y = 12.14

tan 30 = x÷ 12

0.6 x 12 = x

x = 7.2
