Kayla has 1\frac{3}{7} cups of yogurt to make smoothies. Each smoothie uses \frac{1}{4} cup of yogurt. What is the maximum numbe
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer: The maximum number of smoothies is 6 cups

Step-by-step explanation: The quantity of yogurt Kayla has is 1³/₇ cups and she needs to make smoothies that would require, 1/4 cup. The number of smoothies she can make from this available quantity can be mathematically expressed as follows;

Number of smoothies = Total Quantity/Quantity per cup

So if we represent Total quantity (1 ³/₇ cups) by x and the quantity per cup (1/4) by y, then the number of smoothies she can make from her available amount of yogurt can be expressed as follows;

Number of smoothies = x/y

The reason is simple, Kayla can determine how many cups of smoothies she can make provided she knows how much quantity each cup of smoothie would require. That means, if for example she has 10 cups of yogurt and each smoothie requires 5 cups, she simply needs to find out how many 5 cups she can get out of 10 cups, which now translates into 10 divided by 5. Similarly, she has 1 ³/₇ cups of yogurt and to determine how many ¹/₄ cups can come out of this she simply needs to divide the total quantity of yogurt by the amount each cup requires, which bring us back to the equation;

Number of smoothies = x/y

Where x = 1 ³/₇ cups of yogurt and y = ¹/₄ cup of yogurt

Number of smoothies = 1 ³/₇÷ ¹/₄

Number of smoothies = (¹⁰/₇) x (⁴/₁)

Number of smoothies = 40/7

Number of smoothies = 5 ⁵/₇

The maximum number of smoothies Kayla can make is 6 cups, because the result shows 5 cups and a fraction which is greater than half a cup. Therefore the last one that measures 5/7 of a cup shall be the sixth one.

The sum of twice a number and 2 is greater than 4
laila [671]

Let's make the inequality.

The sum of twice a number and 2. We're adding and multiply. X will be the number. 2x+2

Is greater than 4. We'll be using the greater than sign. >4; let's put it together.

2x+2>4; let's solve. First by subtracting two on both sides. 2x>2; let's divide by 2. x>1

So, the inequality is 2x+2>4. To solve it, it is x>1.

A rectangle has a height of a² + 3 and a width of a² + 2a + 5.
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Area =  a^4+2a^3+8a^2+6a+15

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by:

Area = Height * Width

The expressions for height and width are given. We just need to multiply and add like terms (if applicable) to find the expression for the area of the rectangle.

Remember to use distributive property:

(a+b)(x+y) = ax + ay + bx + by

Thus, we have:

(a^2+3)(a^2+2a+5)\\=(a^2)(a^2)+(a^2)(2a)+(a^2)(5)+3a^2+6a+15\\=a^4+2a^3+5a^2+3a^2+6a+15\\=a^4+2a^3+8a^2+6a+15

THis is the expression for area.

While shopping at a clearance sale, Samantha finds a $60.00 dress on sale for 25% off. Samantha also has a 50% off coupon. Which
liq [111]

It seems most likely that ...

... Samantha will save $37.50 because she must first find the 25% sale price before taking the extra 50% reduction

_____

In the real world, it seems probable that Samantha will be offered the choice of using the coupon <em>or</em> the sale discount. If she chooses tht 50% coupon, her savings will be $30. If she chooses the marked sale discount, her savings will be $15.

The scenario above assumes she gets 50% off the sale price of $45, so saves $15+22.50 = $37.50 off the original price.

If EFGH is a parallelogram, what is the value of x?
Leokris [45]
To be a parallogram the 2 angles shown need to equal 180 degrees
 
so we have: 34 + (4x-2) = 180

 now we can solve for x

34 + 4x -2 = 180

simplify the left side by subtracting 2 from 34

32+4x =180

subtract 32 from each side:

4x = 148

divide both sides by 4 to get x

x = 148 / 4 

x = 37 

The answer is B
