On a package of rice, the directions say that the ratio of cups of water to cups of uncooked rice should be 1: 1 2 . a. What is

the total number of cups of ingredients needed if you want to cook 1 2 cup of uncooked rice? ________________________________________ b. Susan says that the ratio of cups of water to total cups of ingredients is 1:2 because there is twice as much water as there is rice. Is this the correct ratio? Explain why or why not, and if not, give the correct ratio.

A) To cook 1/2 cup of rice, the package tells you that you also need 1 cup of water. The the total volume of ingredients is
.. 1/2 c + 1 c = 1 1/2 c


b) According to the package the ratio of water to rice is
.. water : rice = 1 : 1/2 = 2 : 1
Then the ratio of water to total ingredients is
.. water : (water + rice) = 2 : (2 +1) = 2 : 3

Susan's ratio is incorrect. Susan is using "1" for the total of ingredients, instead of 2+1 = 3. The correct ratio is 2:3.

Answer:

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To first solve this problem, we need to figure out the size of an interior angle for a regular hexagon.

This can be done with the formula :

angle = \frac{(n-2)*180}{n} , with n being the number of sides

A hexagon has 6 sides so here is how we would solve for the interior angle:

\frac{(6-2)*180}{6}=120 , with n= 6 sides

Now that we know that each interior angle in the hexagon is 120 degrees, we can now turn our attention to the rhombus.

The opposite angles of the rhombus are congruent, so the two larger obtuse angles are congruent, and so are the two smaller acute angles.

It is also important to note that a rhombus is a quadrilateral, so all of its interior angles add up to 360 degrees.

Looking at the rhombus, we already know one of the angles because it is shared by the interior angle of the hexagon, so the two larger angles in the rhombus are both 120 degrees.

But what about the smaller angles? All we need to do is subtract the two larger angles form 360 and divide by 2 to find the angle.

\frac{360-2(120)}{2} = 60 , so the smaller angle in the rhombus is 60 degrees.

Now that we know both the interior angle and smaller angle of the rhombus, we can find x.

Together, angle x and the angle adjacent to it makes up an interior angle of the hexagon, so x plus that angle is going to equal to 120 degrees.

All we need to do is solve for x:

x+60=120

x=120-60

x = 60 degrees

In parallelogram WXYZ, what is CY?<br> CY=___ ft
dangina [55]
<span>The correct answer is 11 ft.

Explanation:
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. This means that the portion marked x+4 is the same length as the portion marked 2x-7; this gives us the equation x+4=2x-7.

Subtract x from each side:
x+4-x=2x-7-x
4=x-7.

Add 7 to both sides:
4+7=x-7+7
11=x</span>
