Answer:

He'll need 288 cups to make a waffle on his 24 foot diameter circular griddle.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out how much batter Danny needs we first need to compute the area of the first pans, since it is a circular pan their area is given by A = 2*pi*r. So we have:

Area of the first pan = 2*pi*(6/2) = 18.84 square inches

Area of the second pan = 2*pi*(24/2) = 75.36 square foots

We now need to convert these values to be in the same unit, we'll convert from square foots to square inches:

Area of the second pan = 75.36 * (12)^2 = 10851.84 square inches

We can now use a proportion knowing that the batter and the thickness of the waffles are the same. If 0.5 cup of flour can make a waffle on 18.84 square inches then x cup of flour can make a waffle on 10851.85 square inches. Writing this in a mathematical form, we have:

0.5/x = 18.84/10851.84

18.84x = 0.5*10851.85

x = 10851.85*0.5/18.84 =288 cups

Which statement best describes the triangle formed by joining the points A(-3,6),B(-11,2),C(-4,-2)
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Isosceles triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of side AB = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

                              = \sqrt{(-11+3)^2+(2-6)^2}

                              = \sqrt{64+16}

                              = \sqrt{80}

                              = 4\sqrt{5}

Length of BC = \sqrt{(-4+11)^2+(-2-2)^2}

                      = \sqrt{49+16}

                      = \sqrt{65}

Length of AC = \sqrt{(-3+4)^2+(6+2)^2}

                      = \sqrt{1+64}

                      = \sqrt{65}

Since, AC = BC, ΔABC will be an isosceles triangle.

Solve 3x/2 - 7=x/4 - 2 i know the answer is 4 but how do i solve this
Digiron [165]
First, multiply by 4 on both sides to eliminate the denominator, and you get...
6x-28 =x-8
Subtract x on both sides and add 28...
5x=20
Divide to isolate the variable...
x=4
Hope this helps

The sets of numbers 6, 8, 10 and 5, 12, 13 are Pythagorean triples. Use what you know about the Pythagorean Theorem and explain
masya89 [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the Pythagorean theorem is represented in the formula:

a^2 + B^2 = c^2

Where a and b are the legs of a right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse. Therefore, looking at the Pythagorean triples, we can infer that they are considered Pythagorean triples because they follow the Pythagorean theorem. To check if this is true, we can insert the numbers into theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

6^2 + 8^2 = 10^2

36 + 64 = 100

Since this equation is true, these three numbers could be the lengths of a right triangle, and are also therefore, a Pythagorean triple. We can also check the other three numbers:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

5^2 + 12^2 = 13^2

25 + 144 = 169

Since this equation is also true, these three numbers could also be the side lengths of a right triangle, and are also therefore, a Pythagorean triple.
