From the information given, each batch of cookies requires 1/6 of a bag of flour.
So how many batches can be gotten from 5/6 of the bag of flour?
We form an equation
1batch = 1/6
x batches = 5/6
Where x is the number of batches from 5/6 bag of flour.
Cross multiplying this equation we get:
x * 1/6 = 1 * 5/6
simplify it:
x * 0.16 = 1 * 0.83
x = 1 * 0.83 / 0.16
x = 0.83 / 0.16
x = 5.2
Therefore factory made approximately 5 batches of cookies yesterday.
Step-by-step explanation:
-x - 3 = x + 3
Solving like terms
-3 - 3 = x + x
-6 = 2x
-6 / 2 = x
-3 = x
The angle here is an acute angle at ground level. Then the side adjacent to this angle is 126 feet. The opp. side is the tower, 111 feet tall.
Then
tan theta = opp / adj = 111 / 126. Using the inverse tangent function, we find that the measure of the angle is 0.722 radian or 41 degrees (to the nearest degree).
