Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a proportion to find how much mix is required to make 52 cupcakes.

  quarts/cupcakes = 3.5/32 = x/52

Multiplying by 52, we find ...

  x = 52(3.5/32) = 5.6875 . . . quarts needed for 52 cupcakes

This is more mix than Austin made. He does not have enough left for 20 more cupcakes.

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Please check explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to make an interpretation

From the question, we have that initially when the count was started, there were 5,428 people; this means that the initial value of the data is 5,428

For the rate of change, we have that there is an average increase of 142 people for each of 5 years;

That means per 5 years, there is an increase of 142 people and this is what represents the rate of change

An investor invested a total of $2,800 in two mutual funds. One fund earned 5% profit while the other earned 3% profit. If the i
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 5% was $1,000

The amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 3% was $1,800

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 5%

y ----> the amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 3%

we know that

x+y=2,800 ----> y=2,800-x ----> equation A

5\%=5/100=0.05

3\%=3/100=0.03

0.05x+0.03y=104 ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation A in equation B

0.05x+0.03(2,800-x)=104

Solve for x

0.05x+84-0.03x=104

0.05x-0.03x=104-84

0.02x=20

x=\$1,000

<em>Find the value of y</em>

y=2,800-x

y=2,800-1,000=\$1,800

therefore

The amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 5% was $1,000 and the amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 3% was $1,800

Prove that the difference between a two-digit number and the product of its digits will always be a 2 digit number.
slamgirl [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two-digit number is xy

<u>This can be written as:</u>

  • 10x + y, where 1 ≤ x ≤ 9 and 0 ≤ y ≤ 9

<u>The difference between the number and product of its digits is:</u>

  • d = 10x + y - xy

<u>Rewrite this as below:</u>

d = 10x - xy + y - 10 + 10 =

     x(10 - y) - (10 - y) + 10 =

     (x - 1)(10 - y) + 10

<u>We see that:</u>

  • 0 ≤ x - 1 ≤ 8 according to the condition given above
  • 1 ≤ 10 - y ≤ 10 again according to the condition given above

<u>The value of d is then:</u>

  • 0 + 10 ≤ d ≤ 8*10 + 10
  • 10 ≤ d ≤ 90
