Answer: 2.5 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/2 cup makes 24 cookies, and you need 72, divide 72 by 24 and u get 3. So since 72 is 3 things of 24, you multiply 1/2 by 3 which means you need to use 2.5 cups to make 72 cookies.

Answer: 1 and 1/2 cups of butter

Step-by-step explanation:

If 24 cookies takes 1/2 cup of butter than 72 divided by 24 is 3 so 1/2 times 3 is 3/2 so it’s 1 and 1/2 cups

HELP NEEDED!!!! MUCH APPRECIATED

We have

t_1 + t+2 = \dfrac{\sqrt{s}}{4} + \dfrac{s}{1100} = .5

Multiplying through by 1100,

275 \sqrt{s} + s = 550

275 \sqrt{s} = 550 - s

Squaring (which means we need to check later),

275^2 s = (550 - s)^2 = 550^2 - 1100 s + s^2

0 = s^2 - (1100 + 275^2) s + 550^2

0 = s^2 - 76725 s + 302500

s = \frac 1 2 (76725 \pm 1375 \sqrt{3113} )

s \approx 3.94285 \textrm{ or } s \approx 76721.0571

Clearly there's no way that giant number would work; must be extraneous.

Answer: 3.94

Solve for x. The triangles in each pair are similar.
pishuonlain [190]
Start off by knowing that the two triangle are congruent. By knowing this you can turn the given numbers into fractions.

9/72 = 7/7x+7

then cross multiply, which equals

63x + 63 = 504

then solve this equation

63x = 441 - subtract 63 from both sides
x = 7 - divide by 63 from both sides

so your answer is x=7
