Neporo4naja [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: 8 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the number of batches she made, we can just use proportion to solve it. But first, we need to convert 5 1/3 to improper fraction

5 1/3 = 16/3

Then we can now use the proportion to solve

2/3 cups = 1 batch

16/3 cups = x (note:5 1/3=16/3)

cross multiply

2/3 × x = 16 /3

2x/ 3 = 16/3

we need to make x the subject of the formula, to do that we will multiply each side of the equation by 3/2

2/3 × 3/2 x = 16/3 × 3/2

6x /6 = 48 / 6

x = 8

Therefore she made 8 batches of cookies.

On a number line, a number, b, is located the same distance from 0 as another number, a, but in the opposite direction
Karolina [17]

Answer:

b = -a

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

On a number line, the distance between 0 and b is the same distance that between 0 and a (but b and a are in opposite sides of zero).

And we know that, for example, when:

b = 2,  a = -2

Remember that the distance between two values is given by:

|n - m|

Then the distance between 0 and b is:

|0 - b|

and the distance between 0 and a is:

|0 - a|

we have:

|-b| = |-a|

|b| = |a|

But the numbers are in opposite sides of the zero, so one must be positive and the other negative, then we can conclude that:

b = -a

or

-b = a

(these are equivalent)

Then the correct option is the first option:

b = -a

Use your understanding of the symmetry of the sine and cosine functions to determine the value of tan(−theta) for all
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

tan(-\theta)=-tan\theta

Odd function

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

tan(-\theta)

We have to determine the value of tan(-\theta)and find tangent function is odd,even or neither.

tan(-\theta)=\frac{sin(-\theta)}{cos(-\theta)}

tan\theta=\frac{sin\theta}{cos\theta}

We know that

sin(-\theta)=-sin\theta

cos(-\theta)=cos\theta

By using  identities

Then, we get

tan(-\theta)=\frac{-sin\theta}{cos\theta}=-tan\theta

tan(-\theta)=-tan\theta

Odd function: If f(-x)=-f(x)

Even function:If f(-x)=f(x)

tan(-\theta)=-tan\theta

Therefore, function is an odd function.
