Chef Selena is making her special dish that requires pasta, sauce, and onions. She has 5 1/8 pounds of pasta, 6 pounds of sauce,

arlik [135]

Answer:

$\text{Total Weight of Food Made}, x=5\frac{1}{8}+6+4\frac{7}{8}\\\text{Number of Servings}, y=x \div \frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The Weight of Ingredients to be used by Chef Selena are:

$5\frac{1}{8}$ pounds of pasta,
6 pounds of sauce; and
$4\frac{7}{8}$ pounds of onions.

Total Weight of Food Made, x

$=5\frac{1}{8}+6+4\frac{7}{8}\\=5+6+4+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{7}{8}\\=16 \: Pounds$

Since each serving is $\frac{1}{2} Pounds$

Number of Servings of her dish, y

$16 \div \frac{1}{2}\\ =32 \: Servings$

The two equations needed to solve the problem are therefore:

$\text{Total Weight of Food Made}, x=5\frac{1}{8}+6+4\frac{7}{8}\\\text{Number of Servings}, y=x \div \frac{1}{2}$

Indicate in standard form the equation of the line passing through the given points.

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the y-intercept form of the equation of the line is,

y = mx + b

Here, m = Slope of the line

b = y-intercept

Slope of the line passing through two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is given by,

m = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Slope of the passing through (0, 6) and (5, 6) will be,

m = $\frac{6-6}{0-5}$

m = 0

Equation of the line with m = 0 will be,

y = 0 + b

y = b

Since, line passes through (0, 6),

By substituting the values in the equation,

b = 6

Therefore, standard equation of the line passing through (0, 6) and (5, 6) will be,

y = 6

Find the probability of rolling a prime number on the first die and even number on the second

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Prime outcomes on a die: 2,3,5

P(prime) = 3/6 = 1/2

Even outcom: 2,4,6

P(even) = 3/6 = 1/2

P(prime & even)

= P(prime) × P(even)

= ½ × ½

= ¼ or 0.25
