Answer:

$20

Step-by-step explanation:

Paul is making bread using a recipe. The amount of flour he uses is proportional to the number of loaves of bread. He uses 11 1/4 cups of flour to make 5 loaves of bread. If Paul used 18 cups of flour, and then sold the loaves of bread he made at a bake sale for $2.50 each, how much money would Paul make from his bread sales?

Step 1

Find out how many loaves of bread he can produce from 18 cups of flour

11 1/4 cups of flour = 5 loaves of bread

18 cups of flour = x loaves of bread

Cross Multiply

11 1/4 cups × x loaves = 18 cups × 5 loaves

x loaves = 18 cups × 5 loaves/ 11 1/4 cups

x loaves = 90 ÷ 11 1/4

x loaves = 90 ÷ 45/4

x loaves = 90 × 4/45

x loaves = 8 loaves of bread

He can produce 8 loaves of bread from 18 cups of flour.

Step 2

We are told that:

1 loaf of bread costs $2.50

Hence,

1 loaf of bread = $2.50

8 loaves of bread = $x

Cross Multiply

$x = 8 loaves of bread × $2.50

$x = $20

Therefore, Paul made $20 from his bread sales

Alright, lets get started.

Since given that AD is parallel to CB.

And AB is parallel to CD.

And the angle A is given as 90°

It means the given figure is a rectangle.

And the diagonals of the rectangle are equal to each other.

So, DB=AC

So, DB=5

Hence the answer is 5 ...     Answer

Hope it will help :)

Solve the following inequality algebraically. ∣x−5∣≤11
Serga [27]

Answer:

-6 ≤ x ≤ 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, apply absolute value rule:

x - 5 ≤ 11 and x - 5 ≥ -11

Then, we add 5 on both sides with both inequalities:

x ≤ 16 and x ≥ -6

Finally, combine the inequalities:

-6 ≤ x ≤ 16

And we're done ^^
