It takes 40 units of maple sap to produce 1 ounce of maple syrup. Jane and her family are bottling maple syrup in 20 -ounce bott

les. She notices that they leave about 2 ounces of air every time they fill a bottle, to avoid overfill. How much maple sap did they need to collect to fill 15 bottles? How much less maple sap did they need than if they would have filled each bottle to the top? Express your answer as a negative number.

Answer:

10,800

-1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

40 units of maple sap = 1 ounce of maple syrup

Using a 20 - ounce bottle, 2 ounces of air is left

Ounces of actual syrup = (20 - 2) = 18 ounces

Number of maple sap required to fill 15 bottles :

Number of maple saps required to fill 18 ounces bottle :

40 units = 1 ounce

x = 18 ounces

Hence, for 18 ounces of maple syrup :

(40 * 18).= 720 units of maple sap

For 15 bottles of 18 ounces maple syrup:

(720 * 15) = 10,800 units of maple sap

If they had filled each bottle to the top:

(40 * 20 * 15) = 12000 units of maple sap

10,800 - 12000 = - 1200 units of maple sap

What is the equation to (-3,1) and (0,-8)
puteri [66]
The change in x between the two is 3 and the change in y is -9. 
Divide -9 by 3 to get -3 using the rise over run slope formula.  
The equation is y = -8 + -3x because the -8 in the second set of coordinates is the y-intercept of the equation. 
Hope this helps!

11. The preferred overall competition area in judo, including the mats, is a square with an area of 256 m2.
choli [55]
<span>a) We know that the correct answer will be the square root of 256 since the competition area is a square with an area of 256 meters. And since 10^2 = 100 which is less than 256, the answer has to be greater than 10. And since 20^2 = 400 which is greater than 256, the answer also has to be less than 20. Therefore the answer has to be between 10 and 20. b) The last digit has to be either a 4 or a 6. The units digit is the only digit that will contribute to the units digit of the square. And 0^2 = 0, 1^2 = 1, 2^2 = 4, 3^2 = 9, 4^2 = 16, 5^2 = 25, 6^2 = 36, 7^2 = 49, 8^2 = 64, 9^2 = 81. Of the 10 possible digits, only the values 4 and 6 have a square that has an units digit of 6. c) The square root of 256 based up (a) and (b) above has to be either 14, or 16. So the dimensions are either 14x14 meters or 16x16 meters.</span>

From cm to km you divide the number by 100000

So 35,000/100000 = 0.35km
