Answer:

2. Cecilia uses 3 cups of flour for 36 cookies

4. Cecilia is making 3/4 of the original recipe

Step-by-step explanation:

Recipe for 48 cookies

Flour = 4 cups

Sugar = 1 1/3 cups

Recipe for 36 cookies

48 cookies : 36 cookies

= 4 : 3

Flour used in 36 cookies = x cups

Flour used in 48 cookies = 4 cups

4 cups : x cups

4 : 3 = 4 : x

4/3 = 4/x

4*x = 3*4

4x = 12

x = 12/4

x = 3 cups

Sugar = 1 1/3 cups

Sugar used in 36 cookies = y cups

Sugar used in 48 cookies = 1 1/3 cups

4 : 3 = 1 1/3 : y

4/3 = 4/3 ÷ y

4/3 = 4/3 × 1/y

4/3 = 4/3y

4*3y = 3*3

12y = 9

y = 9/12

= 3/4

y = 3/4

The true statement are:

2. Cecilia uses 3 cups of flour for 36 cookies

4. Cecilia is making 3/4 of the original recipe

Help plzz i will give you brianliest Which best describes the graph of the function f(x) = 3(1.8)^x A) The graph passes through
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with why C isn't the answer.

y = 1.8^0 . The power is zero. Anything to the zero power (anything except 0 to the 0 power) is 1. So 1.8^0 is 1 not something else. C assumes that somehow 0,1.8 turns into 1.8. It does not. The second part is also wrong but you don't need it. However here it is.

x = 0        y = 3

x = 1         y = 3 * 1.8 = 5.4

x = 2        y = 3 * 1.8^2 = 3*3.24 = 9.72

You should be able to see that if you multiply 5.4 by 3, you don't get 9.72

C just does not work.

=======

The actual answer is A. That's exactly what the graph does. If you multiply 5.4 * 1.8 you should get 9.72. Just for completeness, I've included the graph.

If a₁ = 4 and an = 5an-1 then find the value of a5.
igor_vitrenko [27]

The value of a_{5} is 2500, when a_{1}=4 and 5a_{n-1}.

Given that, a_{1}=4 and 5a_{n-1}.

We need to find the value of a_{5}.

<h3>What is an arithmetic sequence?</h3>

An arithmetic progression or arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference between the consecutive terms is constant.

Now, to find the value of a_{5} :

a_{2} =5a_{2-1}=5a_{1}=5 \times4=20

a_{3} =5a_{3-1}=5a_{2}=5 \times20=100

a_{4} =5a_{4-1}=5a_{3}=5 \times100=500

a_{5} =5a_{5-1}=5a_{4}=5 \times500=2500

Therefore, the value of a_{5} is 2500.

A circle's circumference is approximately 44 cm.
Sav [38]
<h3>Answers</h3><h3>diameter = 14</h3><h3>radius = 7</h3><h3>area = 154</h3>

these are all approximate

======================================

Explanation:

C = pi*d is the formula for the circumference. We know that C = 44 approximately, so,

C = pi*d

d = C/pi

d = 44/3.14

d = 14.01 approximately

d = 14 also approximate

take half of this to get the radius

r = d/2 = 14/2 = 7

Then use this radius to find the circle's area

A = pi*r^2

A = 3.14*7^2

A = 153.86

A = 154  rounding to the nearest whole number
