Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of desserts is x. we don't know what it is.

40% of all the desserts are cookies.

That is 40% of x.

We are told that 120 of the desserts are cookies.

That means that 40% of all desserts amount to 120.

40% of x = 120

0.4x = 120

Divide both sides by 0.4

0.4x/0.4 = 120/0.4

x = 300

Answer: In all there are 300 desserts.

-25^-1/2 with explanation please
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The simplified value of -25^{-\frac{1}{2}} is -\frac{1}{5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the given expression is

-25^{-\frac{1}{2}}

Lets simplify this expression step by step

As

-25^{-\frac{1}{2}}....[A]

\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \:a^{-b}=\frac{1}{a^b}

25^{-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{25^{\frac{1}{2}}}

So, lets plug 25^{-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{25^{\frac{1}{2}}} in equation [A] i.e.  -25^{-\frac{1}{2}}....[A]

-25^{-\frac{1}{2}}....[A]

=-\frac{1}{25^{\frac{1}{2}}}        ∵ 25^{-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{25^{\frac{1}{2}}}

=-\frac{1}{5}           ∵ 25^{\frac{1}{2}}=5

Therefore, the simplified value of -25^{-\frac{1}{2}} is -\frac{1}{5}.

Check the picture below.

notice that for the perimeter we didn't include the segment BC, because the perimeter of a figure is simply the outer borders.

John and Alan have a collection of x baseball cards. John has x4 cards. What fraction of the cards does Alan have?
melomori [17]
Number of cards of John: J
Number of cards of Alan: A

<span>John and Alan have a collection of x baseball cards:
J+A=x    (1)

</span>John has x/4 cards:
J=x/4

<span>What fraction of the cards does Alan have?
</span>
Replacing J by x/4 in the equation (1)
(1) J+A=x
x/4+A=x

Solving for A:
x/4+A-x/4=x-x/4
A=4x/4-x/4
A=(4x-x)/4
A=3x/4

Answer: Alan has 3/4 of the cards
