A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes the recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes

Lerok [7]

Pounds of beef and potatoes are in ratio or proportion of $\frac{1}{3}$ .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Correct Question: A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes. The recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes. Which proportion represents the situation?

We have , A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes , i.e.

Number of beef stew calls = 1

Number of potatoes = 3

Now , The recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes i.e. for every 2 pounds of beef we have 6 potatoes

⇒ $2/6$

⇒ $\frac{2}{6}$

⇒ $\frac{2}{2(3)}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore , Pounds of beef and potatoes are in ratio or proportion of $\frac{1}{3}$ .

$13,000 was invested at 6% whereas $7,000 was invested at 10% using simple interest approach

What is simple interest?

Simple interest is determined as the amount invested multiplied by the interest rate and the number of years that investment lasts.

I=PRT

I=interest

P=principal

R=rate of return

T=time

Let X be the amount invested at 6%

I at 6%=6%*X*1

I=0.06X

The amount invested at 10% is 20,000-X

total interest=0.06X+0.10*(20000-X)

total interest=1,480

1480=0.06X+0.10*(20000-X)

1480=0.06X+2000-0.10X

1480-2000=0.06X-0.10X

-520=-0.04X

X=-520/-0.04

X=13,000

13,000 was invested at 6%

amount invested at 10%=20,000-X

amount invested at 10%=20,000-13,000

amount invested at 10%=7,000

the diameter of your bicycle wheel is 34 inches.What is its radius?How far will you move in one turn if your wheel?What is the d

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of a circle is always half the radius.

Thus, in this case, the radius is (1/2)(34 in) = 17 in.

The "how far" question is answerable by finding the circumference of the wheel. The circumference, C, is found by calculating C = πd, where d is the diameter of the circle in question.

Here, C = (34 in)π, which comes out to 106.81 inches. The bike will move 106.81 inches forward if the wheel turns once.

If the wheel turns 5 times, the total distance traveled is 5 times the circumference, or 5(106.81 in) = 534.07 in.
