Answer:
0.6 cups of sugar and 1.25 cups of chocolate chips
Step-by-step explanation:
We can begin to solve this problem with a simple proportion:
= 
= 
(x = the new # of sugar y = new # of chocolate chips)
In order to keep everything proportional, we must abide by the scale factor shown with the the flour.
Basically, if we're going to use three times the amount of flour we actually need, then we need to triple all our other ingredients.
We can see that the scale factor is one half, so
x = 1.2 * 0.5
and
y = 2.5 * 0.5
This means that:
x = 0.6
y = 1.25
This means that he has to use 0.6 (or 3/5) cups of sugar and 1.25 (or 9/8) cups of chocolate chips.
Answer:
b) median: there are 7 numbers listed; 20 is the middle number among them
range: subtract lowest from highest number 25-2=23
mean: add all the numbers together =129
mode: place numbers in order (smallest to greatest), then see which number appears the most 2, 18, 18, 20, 22, 24, 25=18
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
20/25 = blue
This means 5/25 of the balls in the bag are NOT blue
(25-20 = 5)
We need to convert 5/25 to a percentage
% = per cent
"per" means "out of"
"cent" means "one hundred"
so
20/100 = 20%
Answer: the service charge per hour for premium services is $5.5
the service charge per hour for regular services is $3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the service charge per hour for premium services.
Let y represent the service charge per hour for regular services.
One customer was charged $38 after spending 2 h in premium areas and 9 regular hours. It means that
2x + 9y = 38- - - - - - - - - - - 1
Another customer spent 3 h in premium areas and 6 regular hours and was charged $34.50. It means that
3x + 6y = 34.5- - - - - - - - - - -2
We would eliminate x by multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 2. It becomes
6x + 27y = 114
6x + 12y = 69
Subtracting, it becomes
15y = 45
y = 45/15
y = 3
Substituting y = 3 into equation 1, it becomes
2x + 9 × 3 = 38
2x + 27 = 38
2x = 38 - 27 = 11
x = 11/2 = 5.5
