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.

S_1 = \frac{a+b}{2}h = \frac{7+9}{2}*5=\frac{18*5}{2}= 9 * 5 = 45~m^2

S_\triangle = \frac{ab}{2} = \frac{5*9}{2} = \frac{45}{2} = 22,5~m^2

S = S_1 + S_\triangle = 45 + 22,5 = 67,5~m^2

Answer: 67,5 m².

Answer:

52.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc length = 2πr(θ/360)

r = 10

θ = 300°

Arc length = 2π(10)(300/360) = 20π(0.8333) = 16.666π ≈ 52.36

This problem sounds so ridiculous lol

All joking aside, first let's look at the multiples of 1000.

1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000

That makes 6.  Complete the following equation, and you have your answer.

6 / 6296 = ?

0.000953 if you round.

Hope it helps. XD
