The answer is c. 3.6

3.6 + 3 = 6.6 pounds of sugar
6.6-3 = 3.6 pounds of sugar added to the dough. This weight that must be added to the total weight of the dough.
3.6 (new sugar) +21 (original dough weight) = 24.6 (total weight)

6.6/24.6 = 26.8%

Answer:

11. 78

12. 4x² - 3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

11. Sum of n whole numbers = ½(n² + n)

Multiply

½*n² + ½*n

= n²/2 + n/2

To find the sum of the first 12 whole number, substitute 12 for n into the equation.

= 12²/2 + 12/2

= 144/2 + 12/2

= 72 + 6

= 78

12. Area of trapezoid = ½(a + b)*h

Where,

a = 5x - 4

b = 3x + 2

h = x + 1

Area = ½(5x - 4 + 3x + 2)*(x + 1)

Area = ½(8x - 2)*(x + 1)

Area = ½[8x(x + 1) -2(x + 1)]

= ½[8x² + 8x - 2x - 2]

Add like terms

= ½(8x² - 6x - 2)

= ½(8x²) - ½(6x) - ½(2)

= 4x² - 3x - 1

The top 1/8 of the runners advance to the finals for the track and field competition. What is the decimal value of the number? S
egoroff_w [7]
To find the decimal form, you have to manually divide 1 by 8. Since 8 is greater than 1, the quotient would then start with 0., then you add a 0 next to 1, to make it 10. This time, divide 10 by 8. The nearest answer would be 1, because 1 *8 = 8. Subtracting this from 10, you get 2. Add another 0 to 2, to make it 20. Do the cycle all over again. The complete solution is as follows:
          0.125
       ---------------------------
   8 |   10
         - 8
        ------------------------
           20
         -16
          -------------
            40
          - 40
       -------------
            0

<em>Hence, the decimal form of 1/8 is 0.125.</em>
