Priya needs 13⅓ cups of orange juice

Diego 15 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

......................................................................................................................

Priya

......................................................................................................................

Cup of water = 2½

Cup of orange = ⅓

If 2½ cups of water requires ½ cup of orange juice concentrate

Then 100 cups of water would require x cup of orange

Representing the above statement mathematically

2½ : ⅓ = 100 : x

5/2 : 1/3 = 100 : x ------------------Convert ratio sign to division

5/2 ÷⅓ = 100/x

5/2 * 3 = 100/x

15/2 = 100/x ---------------Multiply both sides by x

15/2 * x = 100/x * x

15x/2 = 100 ------------------ Multiply both sides by 2

2 * 15x/2 = 2 * 100

15x = 200 --------------- Divide both sides by 15

x = 200/15

x = 13⅓

So, 13⅓ cups of orange is needed by Priya

......................................................................................................................

Diego

......................................................................................................................

Cup of water = 1⅔

Cup of orange = ¼

If 1⅔ cups of water requires ¼ cup of orange juice concentrate

Then 100 cups of water would require x cup of orange

Representing the above statement mathematically

1⅔:¼ = 100:x

5/3 : ¼ = 100:x

5/3 ÷¼ = 100 ÷ x

5/3 * 4/1 = 100 ÷ x

20/3 =100/x----------------------- Multiply x to both sides

20/3 * x = 100/x * x

20x/3 = 100 ------------------------ Multiply 3 to sides by 3

3 * 20x/3 = 100 * 3

20x = 300 ------------- Divide both sides by 2

20x/20 = 300/20

x = 15

So, 15 cups of orange is needed by Diego

What are the excluded values v^2 +1 / v^2 -v-6
valentina_108 [34]
The rational expression
\dfrac{v^{2}+1}{v^{2}-v-6}=\dfrac{v^{2}+1}{(v-3)(v+2)}
will be undefined where the denominator is zero. Values of v that make the denominator zero are v=3 and v=-2.

Excluded values of v are -2 and 3.

I don’t really get this question can someone help me out
Inessa [10]

angles EFH and GFH are congruents

for the second equivalence criterion  two triangles are equivalents if they have  respectively  2 angles and 1 side congruents

the two triangles have congruents the angle right angle (HGF and HEF) and the 55 degrees angles (EFH and GFH); then they have in common the HF side.

so the triangles are congruent and so all the sides are respectively congruent,for example EH with HG:

EH=HG

s+36=7s

s+36-7s=0

s-7s=-36

-6s=-36

6s=36

s=6
