Answer:

(a) 306 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of sugar to the total is ...

sugar : (sugar + butter) = (2 1/4) : (2 1/4 + 3/8)

= (18/8) : (18/8 +3/8) = 18 : 21 = 6 : 7

Then the amount of sugar in the baker's initial is ...

(6/7) × 357 = 306 . . . . pounds

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you realize that 2 1/4 is much more than 3/8, then you realize most of the mix is sugar. Of the answer choices, the only one that is most of 357 pounds is the first one: 306 pounds. That is the correct choice. In other words, your sense of the quantities involved is sufficient to answer the question, without any math.

Find the area of the shaded regions. Give your answer as a completely simplified exact value in terms of π (no approximations).

masya89 [10]

Answer:

$40\pi \ m^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

In this problem we have

$r=10\ m$

Substitute and find the area

$A=\pi (10)^{2}=100 \pi\ m^{2}$

Remember that

$360\°$ subtends the area of complete circle

so

by proportion

Find the area of the shaded regions

The central angle of the shaded regions is equal to $2*72\°=144\°$

$\frac{100\pi }{360} \frac{m^{2}}{degrees} =\frac{x }{144} \frac{m^{2}}{degrees} \\ \\x=144*100\pi /360\\ \\ x=40\pi \ m^{2}$

In triangle ABC, and C is a right angle. Find the value of the trig function find the sec(A) if C=25, B=20, A=15

asambeis [7]

Answer:

sec A = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Sec of an angle is hypotenuse/adjacent side

In your problem, sec A = 25/20 = 5/4

It helps if you can draw a figure of the problem. Make sure you memorize the definition of each trig function

Write the prime factorization of the number. 18,234

shusha [124]

Answer:

$18234=2\times 3\times 3\times 1013$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a number 18234

We have to find the prime factorization of the number

Prime factorization : The number written is in the product of prime numbers is called prime factorization.

In order to find the prime factorization we will find the factors of given number

$18234=2\times 3\times 3\times 1013$

Hence, the prime factorization of $18234=2\times 3\times 3\times 1013$
