In order to find the answer, you need to multiply the amount that the chef uses per serving for the number of servings. The statement indicates that the chef uses one- fiftieth of an ounce of a spice per serving and this is represented as 1/50 and you have to multiply this for 43 that is the number of people.

You can find 1/50 as a decimal dividing 1 by 50:

1/50=0.02

Now, you can multiply this value for 43:

0.02=43=0.86

According to this, the answer is that the scale reading that the chef need to see for this spice when preparing the specialty for 43 people is 0.86.

A 12-foot ladder leans against the wall; the base of the ladder is 2 feet away from the wall.To the nearest tenth of a foot, how

ludmilkaskok [199]

<h3>The ladder will reach a height of 11.8 feet up the wall</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

The ladder, wall and base of the ladder from wall forms a right angled triangle

Length of ladder forms the hypotenuse

Length of ladder = 12 foot

base of the ladder from wall = 2 feet

<em><u>To find: height of wall</u></em>

By pythagoras theorem.

$c^2 = a^2+b^2$

Where,

"c" is the Length of ladder

"a" is the base of the ladder from wall

"b" is the height of wall

Substituting the values,

$12^2 = 2^2+b^2\\\\144 = 4 + b^2\\\\b^2 = 140\\\\b = \pm 11.832 \\\\Ignore\ negative\ value\\\\b \approx 11.8$

Thus, the ladder will reach a height of 11.8 feet on wall

1. The coordinates of the vertices of parallelogram RMBS are R(–4, 5), M(1, 4), B(2, –1), and S(–3, 0). Using the diagonals, pro

Whitepunk [10]

First, plot the points. Point R would be somewhere in the second Quadrant, point M would be in the first quadrant 1, point B would be in the fourth quadrant, and point S would be on the negative y-axis. A property of rhombi is that their diagonals are perpendicular. One would need to calculate the slopes of the diagonals and determine whether or not they are perpendicular. Lines are perpendicular if and only if their slopes are opposite reciprocals. Example: 2 and -0.5
Formulas needed:
Slope formula:
$\frac{ y_{2}- y_{1} }{ x_{2} - x_{1} }$

The figure would look kinda like this:
R
M

S
B
Diagonals are segment RB and segment SM
So, your slope equations would look like this:
$\frac{-1-5}{2-(-4)}$
and
$\frac{4-(-3)}{1-0}$
Slope of RB= -1
Slope of SM=7
Not a rhombus, slopes aren't perpendicular. But this figure may very well be a parallelogram
