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.

3x+3=192 is the equation
To solve the equation, you would subtract 3 from both sides, 3-3 cancels out, so 192-3= 189. Then, you are left with 3x=189 so you divide both sides by 3, 3x divided by 3 cancels out, so you do 189 divided by 3 which is 63.
Answer to equation: x=63
Equation: 3x+3=192

Answer:

  3929 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of the fence circle is half its diameter, so is 51.4 feet. The area of a circle is given by the formula ...

  A = πr^2

The difference in areas of the two regions is found by subtracting the smaller area from the larger one. So, the difference in area between the fenced area of radius 51.4 feet and the playground area of radius 37.3 feet is ...

  ∆A = π(51.4^2 -37.3^2) = 1250.67π ≈ 3929 . . . square feet
