Answer:

B. 8 batches of cookies

Step-by-step explanation:  

We need to solve for x.

5 1/3 = 16/3

Use proportions to solve

2/3 cups = 1 batch of cookies

16/3 cups = x

Use cross multiplication

2/3 × x = 16 /3

2x/ 3 = 16/3

Multiply each side of the equation

2/3 × 3/2 x = 16/3 × 3/2

6x /6 = 48 / 6

x = 8

Answer: 8 batches
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the number of batches she made, we can just use proportion to solve it. But first, we need to convert 5 1/3 to improper fraction
5 1/3 = 16/3
Then we can now use the proportion to solve
2/3 cups = 1 batch
16/3 cups = x (note:5 1/3=16/3)
cross multiply
2/3 × x = 16 /3
2x/ 3 = 16/3
we need to make x the subject of the formula, to do that we will multiply each side of the equation by 3/2
2/3 × 3/2 x = 16/3 × 3/2
6x /6 = 48 / 6
x = 8
Therefore she made 8 batches of cookies.

An isosceles triangle has a base of 4 and a height of x+3. If the area is 10, what is the value of x?
kicyunya [14]
The area of a <span>isosceles triangle:
S=(bh)/2, where b is for base (=4) and h is for height (=x+3)
We get the equation:
10=(4*(x+3))/2
10=(4x+12)/2
4x+12=20
4x=8
x=2

Solve for x. -1+14x 12+17
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

These two angles are equal since they are alternate exterior angles

-1 +14x = 12x+17

Subtract 12x from each side

-1 +14x-12x = 12x-12x+17

-1+2x= 17

Add 1  to each side

-1+1+2x = 17+1

2x = 18

2x/2 = 18/2

x =9
