Answer: 14.29 or rounded up to 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

525 - 450 = 75

You need at least $75 off the price to have enough money.

75/525 = x/100

Solve for X

75 * 100 = 7500

7500/525 = 14.2857143

If answer should be a whole percentage you would need the discount to be 15% in order to not fall short on funds.

Caleb is making lemonade and cookies for the school bake sale. He has 10 cups of
Goryan [66]

Answer:

He can make only one batch of cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just by mental math you can say he can make maximum one batch of cookies.

Total sugar = 10 cups

sugar used for lemonade = 2 cups

leftover sugar = 8 cups

For 1 batch of cookie sugar needed = 11/2

which means 5 and 1/2 cups

And he's just left with 8 cups of sugar after lemonade

8 - 5 1/2 = 2 1/2 which is not enough for 2nd batch

That means the maximum number of cookies batches is 1.

Another way to solve it by inequality:

2+Il/2 X <u><</u> 10

11/2 X <u><</u> 8

11X <u><</u> 16

X <u><</u> 1 6/11

So he can make only one batch of cookies.

What are adjacent angles?
Licemer1 [7]
When you have two squares stacked on top of each other, pretend the angle in the bottom left of the top square is a 90 degree angle, that means that the angle of the square right underneath, also sharing the line, is a 90 degree angle. Or whatever you would need to get it equal to 180, my example was 90/90.
