A recipe uses 100 g of flour, 100 g of sugar and 80 g of butter.

Maslowich

Answer:

600 butter : 2000 flour : 200 sugar : 400 currants = 72 cakes

120 cakes could be made with 1 kg of butter

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, 72 cakes = 6 dozen cakes

( since 12 cake = 1 dozen cake ).

a. First calculate quantity of each ingredient per dozen by dividing each by 1.5 (18/12).

• Butter - 150/1.5 = 100 g per dozen

For 6 dozen :

100g x 6 = 600 g

• Flour - 500/1.5 = 333.33 g per dozen

For 6 dozen :

333.33 g x 6 = 2000 g

• Sugar - 50/1.5 = 33.33 g per dozen

For 6 dozen :

33.33 x 6 = 200 g

• Currants - 100/1.5 = 66.67 g per dozen

For 6 dozen :

66.67 x 6 = 400 g

b. It is given that,

150g butter is required to make = 18 cakes

Then by using unitary method, we get,

1 g of butter is required to make = 18/150 cakes

Since, 1 Kg = 1000 g

Then,

1000 g of butter is required to make = (18/150) × 1000

= 120 cakes

Hence, with 1 kg of butter 120 whole cakes can be made.

Hope this answer helps you :)

Have a great day :)

Do the three points lie on one line?

padilas [110]

Answer:

Yes. No graph paper.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the 3 points are A, B, C.

If A, B and C lie on one line then $m_{AB} = m_{BC} = m_{AC}$

$m_{AB} = \frac{y_{B}-y_{A} }{x_{B}-x_{A}} = \frac{2-6}{3-5} = \frac{-4}{-2} = 2\\m_{BC} = \frac{y_{C}-y_{B} }{x_{C}-x_{B}} = \frac{8-2}{6-3} = \frac{6}{3} = 2\\\\m_{AC} = \frac{y_{C}-y_{A} }{x_{C}-x_{A}} = \frac{8-6}{6-5} = \frac{2}{1} = 2\\\\$

Hence, they lie on one line.

You don't need to use a graph paper to prove it.

A rectangular plot of land is to be enclosed by a fence. One side is along a river, and does not need to be enclosed. If the tot

Bad White [126]

Answer:

Width 150 meters.

Length = 350 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the width of the fence = k meters

So, both sides = k + k = 2k meters

Also, the TOTAL fencing length = 600 m

So, the one side length of the fence = (600 - 2 k) meters

AREA = LENGTH x WIDTH

⇒ A(k) = (600 - 2k) (k)

or, A = -2k² + 600 k

The above equation is of the form: ax² +bx + C

Here: a = - 2 , b = 600 and C = 0

As a< 0, the parabola opens DOWNWARDS.

Here, x value is given as: $x = \frac{-b}{2a}$

Solving for the value of k similarly, we get:

$k = \frac{-b}{2a} = \frac{600}{2(-2)} = 150$

Thus the desired width = k = 150 meters

So, the desired dimensions of the plot is width 150 meters.

And length = 650 - 2k = 650 - 300 = 350 meters.
