Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 8 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the number of batches she made, we can just use proportion to solve it. But first, we need to convert 5 1/3 to improper fraction

5 1/3 = 16/3

Then we can now use the proportion to solve

2/3 cups = 1 batch

16/3 cups = x (note:5 1/3=16/3)

cross multiply

2/3 × x = 16 /3

2x/ 3 = 16/3

we need to make x the subject of the formula, to do that we will multiply each side of the equation by 3/2

2/3 × 3/2 x = 16/3 × 3/2

6x /6 = 48 / 6

x = 8

Therefore she made 8 batches of cookies.

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

3095.6 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume cone = 1/3(πr²h)

                      = 1/3(π(13.9)²(15.3))

                      = 1/3(π(193.21)(15.3))

                      = 1/3(2956.113π)

                      = 985.371π ≈ 3095.6 ft³

AURORKA [14]
A suitable solver will tell you instantly that the measure of b is 179.18 ft.

_____
If you want to do it yourself (meaning also with the aid of a calculator), you can use the Law of Sines. The given side is side "c", so you need the measure of angle C. That will be
  180° -33° -63° = 84°
Then side "b" can be found from
  b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)
  b = c*sin(B)/sin(C)
  b = (200 ft)*sin(63°)/sin(84°) ≈ 179.183 ft
