Answer: 3:5

Step-by-step explanation:let the ratios are 3x and 5x

therefore,3x+5x=240

8x=240

x=30

so,3x=3×30=90

5x=5×30=150

so,we divide 240 in 90 and 150 to get ratio 3:5

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

$\frac{51}{8}$ cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the ingredients for making chocolate cookies are $\frac{3}{4}$ cup of brown sugar, $\frac{1}{4}$ cup of white sugar, $\frac{3}{2}$ cup of butter, $\frac{11}{8}$ cup of flour, and $\frac{5}{2}$ cup of chocolate chips.

Now, we have to calculate the total number of cups of ingredients needed in making chocolate cookies.

So, it will be given by

$(\frac{3}{4} + \frac{1}{4} + \frac{3}{2} + \frac{11}{8} + \frac{5}{2})$ cups

= $\frac{3 \times 2 + 1 \times 2 + 3 \times 4 + 11 + 5 \times 4}{8}$ cups

= $\frac{51}{8}$ cups. (Answer)

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

13058.83 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a rectangular box is having dimensions as 41x81 inches.

Let x be the side of square cut from all the four corners.

The open box made would have height as x and length 41-2x with width 81-2x

Volume =

$V(x) = x(41-2x)(81-2x)\\V(x) =x(3321-244x+4x^2)\\V(x) = 3321x-244x^2+4x^3\\V'(x) = 3321-488x+12x^2\\V"(x) = -488+24x\\$

Equate first derivative to 0

We get applicable root as x = 8.642

Max volume = 13058.83 cubic inches
