Answer:

18 scoops is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 can also be written as 6/8 (multiply both 3 and 4 by 2)

and 1 1/2 is actually 3/2 which can be written as 12/8 (multiply both 3 and 2 by 4)

thus total lentils required is 6/8 + 12/8 = 18/8 cups.

with scoop size 1/8 cup you'll need 18 scoops .

Answer:

18 1/8 scoops

Step-by-step explanation:

Soup:

6 scoops from a 1/8 cup can make a 3/4 cup

Salad:

4 scoops from a 1/8 cup can make a 1/2 cup

If 1/8 means one portion is divided into eight portions, then 8 scoops from a 1/8 cup can make 1 cup.

The second side of a triangular deck is 3 feet longer than the shortest side and a third side that is 3 feet shorter than twice
abruzzese [7]

The perimeter of a triangle is:

P = a + b + c

 

We are given that:

b = a + 3

c = 2 a – 3

 

Therefore:

68 = a + a + 3 + 2 a – 3

68 = 4 a

a = 17

 

and,

b = a + 3 = 20

<span>c = 2a – 3 = 31</span>

What is the common difference for this arithmetic sequence?<br> 31, 48, 65, 82, ...
sergejj [24]

Answer:

d = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The given arithmetic sequence is :

31, 48, 65, 82, ...

We need to find the common difference for this sequence.

First term, a₁ = 31

Second term, a₂ = 48

Common difference = a₂-a₁

= 48-31

= 17

So, the common difference for this arithmetic sequence is equal to 17.

Round 8,516 to the nearest hundred.
Marat540 [252]

Answer: 8,500

Step-by-step explanation: To round 8,516 to the nearest hundred, first find the digit in the rounding place which in this case is the 5 in the hundreds place.

Next, look at the digit to the right of the rounding place which is 1. The rules of rounding tell us that if the digit to the right of the rounding place is less than 5, we round down and if the digit to the right of the rounding place is greater than or equal to 5, we round up.

So in this case, since 1 is less than 5, we round down.

This means that the digit in the rounding place which is 5 stays the same and we change all digits to the right of the rounding place to zero.

So we have 8,500.

Therefore, 8,516 rounded to the nearest hundred is 8,500.
