The question is worded poorly, but it looks like you have a lever in equilibrium, with a force x at a distance d from the fulcrum, and a force y at a distance L - d from the fulcrum. You already have the equilibrium formula for this situation:

xd = y(L - d)

If you know x, y, and d, you can solve for the length L.

Roger has 2 1/2 cups of butter. A recipe for a loaf of bread requires 3/4 cups of butter. How many loaves can Roger bake?
lubasha [3.4K]
The number of loaves can be determined with dividing the butter by the number of cups needed for a loaf.
loaves = 2 1/2 ÷ 3/4

Change into improper fraction
loaves = 2 1/2 ÷ 3/4
loaves = 5/2 ÷ 3/4

Change into multiplication
loaves = 5/2 ÷ 3/4
loaves = 5/2 × 4/3
loaves = 20/6
loaves = 10/3
loaves = 3.3
Because the number of loaves can't be a fraction, round it to the smaller whole number

Roger can make 3 loaves of bread

pickupchik [31]
The experimental probability that the high temp will be below 45 F on the 29th day is, 4.5 out of 29 days, that is because 20 of the days have had lower temperatures, so they left 9 days of and from those 9 days, they could be lower or greater that 45F (50% each side), that is:
4.5/29 = 0.155 = 15.5%
that is the exp probability
