Answer: 0.475 cups of broth per serving.

Explanation:


1) Ratio given:

 i) To facilitate the operations, transform the mixed number 4 3/4 cups into improper fraction:

4 + 3/4 = [16 + 3] / 4 = 19 / 4

ii) ratio broth: servings

\frac{ \frac{19}{4}cups }{10servings}

2) Proportion with the unknown number of cups of broth per serving:

\frac{ \frac{19}{4}cups }{10servings}= \frac{x}{1serving}

3) Solve for the unknown:

x = [19 / 4] cups × 1 serving / 10 servings = 19 / 40 cups = 0.475 cups

Jerome spent $20 on supplies to make 50 cookies for a bake sale. Write and solve an inequality to find the price that Jerome sho
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Each cookie will have to be sold for at least $0.90 if the profit is to be made is more than $25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount spent on supplies is $20.

The number of cookies baked is = 50.

If the profit to be made is more than $25.00 .

Then we can safely say that all the cookies have to be sold for

= $20.00 + $25.00

= $45.00

Therefor the required inequality can be written as

50 x ≥ $45.00            ⇒       x   ≥   \frac{45.00}{50}            ⇒      x   ≥  $0.90.

Therefore we can say that each cookie will have to be sold for at least $0.90 if the profit is to be made is more than $25.

Is y=7x+2 x+7y=8 parallel, perpendicular, or neither?
Murljashka [212]
Rearrange them to slope-intercept form

y = 7x + 2

y = -(1/7) x + 8

product of their slopes is  7 * -1/7  = -1  so they are perpendicular

State A is in the shape of a rectangle with a perimeter of 1268 mi. The width is 90 mi less than the length. Find the length and
Agata [3.3K]

The length and width of the rectangle is 362 m and 272 m respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be  "x m".

then the width = x - 90 m

Perimeter = 2 x (length + width) ------------------------------(1)

Substituting Length and width value in the above equation (1), we get,

2 x (x+x-90) = 1268

or, 2x - 90 = 1268/2

or, 2x - 90 = 634

or, 2x = 634 + 90

or, 2x = 724

or, x = 724/2

= 362

Thus the length  = 362 m

width = 362 - 90 m =  272 m
