Answer:
3 cups of water
Step-by-step explanation:
Henry is making a corn grits recipe that calls for 1/4 cup of corn grits for every 1/2 cup of water. How much water will he need if he uses 1 1/2 cups of corn grits?
Expand 1/2 to 2/4, if there is 1 1/2 cups of corn grits, that means that 1/4 cups of corn grits was used 6 times, 1/2x6=3. He will need 3 cups of water
You know the missing side of the bottom base is 6 because of the 30 60 90 special right triangle. The height is 6sqrt3 because of what i said above too, The area of a trapezoid is 1/2 b1+b2*h so 30+36*6sqrt3 is 396sqrt3 divided by 2 is 298sqrt3
It doesn’t really matter which variable you isolate first but usually you would use the one that’s by itself already. like for example one of the equations was y = 8. you would already have your y solve for so you would just have to plug that in for y in the other equation. personally, i usually do x first unless one of the equations has either x or y by itself already. i think its easier to just do x first and then solve for y after that, but it just depends on what the equations are; sometimes it might be easier to just do y first. hope this helps!
Yes I agree with that because you combined the terms in the monomial correctly and the degree of the monomial was greater then the degree of any other mono/binomials in the polynomial
The solution is (5, 15)
Multiply the second equation by 2 and then add through.
3x + 2y = 45
8x - 2y = 10
-----------------
11x = 55
x = 5
Then plug in to get the y value
3(5) + 2y = 45
15 + 2y = 45
2y = 30
y = 15
