Answer:

brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

she needs altogether 2 2/4.

that is 2 wholes and 2/4 fraction.

if we consider using 1/4 cup, 1 whole is made of four quarter cups.

Therefore 2 wholes require eight quarter cups. then theres a remaining fraction of 2/4 which is equivalent to two quarter cups.

1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4. therefore altogether 8 + 2 = 10 of the 1/4 cups are required for the recipe.

10 of 1/4 cups are needed

Answer:

3rd option

Step-by-step explanation:

A direct variation is expressed in this form:

y = kx

1. y - 4x = 8

y = 4x + 8 is not a direct variation

2. y + 2 = 7x

y = 7x - 2 is not a direct variation

3. y - 3x = 0

y = 3x is a direct variation

4. y = 5x - 2

y = 5x - 2 is not direct variation

John and his three brothers share a cell phone plan. the cell phone company charges a flat rate of $90 per month, which of the f

Alla [95]

Ok...so u have 4 people sharing this plan...they each pay for their own data..however, the $ 90 flat rate is split between them equally.
90/4 = 22.5....so each of them pay 22.50 each for the flat rate.

so John's equation is : 22.5 + 0.25x = 147.50

Answer:

1 - (π/6) - (√3/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, calculate the area of ABCD. That's just $1*1 = 1 un^{2}$

Then, we are told that arcs BD and AC are circular, meaning they are portions of a circle. Therefore, let's redraw this image a little. Look below for the image.

Essentially, what I've done is created an equilateral triangle and two sectors. You may be wondering why the triangle is equilateral. Well, we firstly know it's isosceles because the two original arcs are circular and congruent. Their overlap creates two congruent lines that can be extend from point M to the vertices A and D. These two lines also happen to be radii of the quarter circles because the two sectors have AM AND AD as radii. AM and AD = 1, so AMD is an equilateral triangle.

Draw altitude OD. This is a right angle. Since equilateral triangles are also isosceles triangles, and isosceles triangles have the property of sharing the median to base and altitude to base, we can say that OD = $\frac{1}{2}$ AD = $\frac{1}{2}$ . MD = 1, so this triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle. Why? This is because of the 30º angle converse theorem. The shorter leg is half of the hypotenuse MD, so <OMD is a 30º angle, making <ODM a 60º angle and inevitably <MDC a 30º angle (because <D is a right angle) and <ABM as well because the two sectors are congruent.

Because m<ABM = m<MDC = 30º, these two sectors are 30/360 of the individual circles or 1/12 of the original circles, which have areas of π (because 1^2*π = π). Each is 1/12π, combined they are 1/6π.

The area of the equilateral triangle is √3/8. This is because MO can be calculated, using the 30-60-90 ratios, to be √3/2. (1 * √3/2)/2 = (√3/2)/2 = √3/4; this uses the area of a triangle. Now, time to calculate the shaded area.

The area of the square is 1, the area of the sectors π/6, and the equilateral triangle √3/4. Subtract the equilateral triangle and sectors' areas from the area of the square to be left with the remaining shaded part. 1-(π/6)-(√3/4) is your final answer. To put that a little more cleanly below in the image.

Hope this helps, have a great day.
