Answer:

24 cup cakes

Step-by-step explanation:

Karim uses. Total of 20 cup of batter to make x cupcakes and a cake. He uses 2/3 cups of batter for each cupcake and 4 cups of batter for the cake. How many cupcakes x can karim make if he uses all the batter

Let us represent:

Number of cup cakes = x

Number of cakes = y

x + y = 20 cups of batter

x + y = 20...... Equation 1

x = 20 - y

2/3 cups of batter for each cupcake and 4 cups of batter for the cake

Number of cups of batter for the cupcakes

= 20 - 4

= 16 cups of batter is used for the chop cakes

2/3 cups of batter for each cupcake

Hence:

2/3 cups of batter = 1 cup cakes

16 cups of batter = x

Cross Multiply

2/3 x x = 16

x = 16 ÷ 2/3

x = 16 × 3/2

x = 24 cup cakes

rodikova [14]

Answer:  C

Step-by-step explanation:

I recognize this as coming from an old 1912 novel published as "A Princess of Mars", by Edgar Rice Burroughs. I read the book as a teenage boy. A 2012 movie, called "John Carter", was based on this same book.

Answer A  - No, because the character (Carter) says, "My muscles, perfectly attuned and accustomed to the force of gravity on Earth". Perfectly attuned is an athlete, not a clumsy person.

Answer B - No, because the character just doesn't sound all that frustrated. The experience is strange and inconvenient, yet he is handling his emotions pretty well for how weird it must be. It is more like he is writing about an amazing experience, not just complaining.

Answer D - No, because he never says that the experience was making him happy. He does not say that he was laughing or smiling or that it reminded him of some pleasant time he had as a boy.

Answer C - Yes. - Creation of vivid imagery. In a novel, the author must paint pictures with their words. Part of how the author does this is by giving you the picture of a man who feels very comfortable with his coordination on Earth, but keeps winding up about 9 feet off the ground without trying. He doesn't just "I kept falling". He tells you in vivid detail - "... landed me sprawling on my face or back ..."

Hope this helps!

A basket contains four apples and six peaches. You randomly select one piece of fruit and eat it. Then you randomly select anoth
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Answer as a fraction: 4/15

Answer as a decimal: 0.267

The decimal version is approximate rounded to three decimal places.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 apples, 4 peaches

6+4 = 10 pieces of fruit total

The probability of picking an apple is 6/10 = 3/5

After you pick and eat the apple, there are 10-1 = 9 pieces of fruit left. Also, the probability of picking a peach is 4/9, as there are 4 peaches out of 9 fruit left over.

Multiply out 3/5 and 4/9 to get (3/5)*(4/9) = (3*4)/(5*9) = 12/45 = 4/15

Using a calculator, 4/15 = 0.267 approximately.
