Amount of baking soda is independent. height of cupcake is dependent because it "depends" on the baking soda
<span>(9t-4)(-9t-4)
using the FOIL :
9t * -9t = -81 t^2
9t * -4 = -36 t
-4 * -9t = 36 t
-4 * -4 = 16
-----------------------add up and simplify

The square root of 9182, is 95.82275303, or 95.8.
Hope that helps :)
The diagonals of a rectangle are always congruent. We have the whole length of OQ to be 2x + 6, and we have only half of NP. Therefore, OQ = 2(PR). 2x+6=2(3x-5). 2x+6 = 6x-10. 16 = 4x so x = 4. That means that each diagonal is 14 units long.
