Amanda uses 1/3 of a cup of milk each time she makes a batch of pancakes. How manybbatches can she make if she only has 11/22 of

kow [346]

Answer:

<u>Amanda can make 1.5 or 3/2 of batches of pancakes with 11/22 of a cup of milk.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us for answering the question correctly:

Amount of milk Amanda use for a batch of pancakes = 1/3 cup

2. How many batches can she make if she only has 11/22 of a cup of milk left?

Let's simplify 11/22, dividing by 11 the numerator and the denominator,

11/22 = 1/2

Now, using the Rule of Three Simple, we can calculate the answer to this question, this way:

Number of batches = (1/2 * 1)/1/3

Number of batches = 1/2 / 1/3

Number of batches = 1/2 * 3/1 (Taking the reciprocal)

Number of batches = 3/2 = 1.5

<u>Amanda can make 1.5 or 3/2 of batches of pancakes with 11/22 of a cup of milk.</u>

The length of a rectangular floor is 2 feet more than its width. The area of the floor is 168 square feet. Kim wants to use a ru

ioda

Let width of the floor be x feet, them area is
x(x+2) = 168
x^2 + 2x - 168 = 0
(x - 12)(x + 14) - 0
so x = 12
the floor is 12 ft by 10 ft

the width of the rug should be 10 - 2(2) = 6 feet

A penny weighs about 0.1 oz. how much is a pound of pennies worth

Lelu [443]

<span>1. </span><span>A penny weighs about 0.1 oz.
Now, we need to find the weights of pennies in pounds
=> always remember that in every 1 oz, there is 0.0625 pounds.
Since 0.1 is 1/10 of 1 oz, we need to find the value of it in pounds.
=> 0.0625 pounds / 10
=> 0.0625 pounds.
Therefore, in 0.1 oz of penny is equivalent to 0.00625 pounds.
In problem like this, before determining the answer, you need to make sure that both unit of measurements are the same. If not, then try to convert.</span>

Fertilizer is sold in 100 pound bags labelled with the amount of nitrogen ( N), phosphoric acid ( P2O5), and potash ( K2O) prese

Grace [21]

Answer:

For Vigoro are needed

2929*35.8479 ≅ 104,988.49 (N)

33*3.4351≅113.35 (A)

44*31.2181≅1373.59 (P)

For Parkera are needed

1818*35.8479≅65,171.48 (N)

2525*3.4351≅8673.62 (A)

66*31.2181≅2060.39 (P)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that in every 100100 pounds of compound nitrogen (N), phosphoric acid (A) and potash (P) are present and that according to the product brand the concentrations vary, therefore:

For Vigoro

2929 N, 33 A, 44 P

For Parkeras

1818 N, 2525 A, 66 P

Now, we need 170170 N, 8787 A and 3434 P of final product containing the components of the types of fertilizers

You can see that the compounds are the same what changes are the proportions from there that

2929N+1818N=170170 ⇒ 4747N=170170 ⇒ N=170170/4747 ≅ 35.8479

33A+2525A=8787 ⇒ 2558A=8787 ⇒ A=8787/2558 ≅ 3.4351

44P+66P = 3434 ⇒ 110P=3434 ⇒ P=3434/110 ≅ 31.2181

Finally

For Vigoro are needed

2929*35.8479 ≅ 104,988.49 (N)

33*3.4351≅113.35 (A)

44*31.2181≅1373.59 (P)

For Parkera are needed

1818*35.8479≅65,171.48 (N)

2525*3.4351≅8673.62 (A)

66*31.2181≅2060.39 (P)

Note: to verify the data, just replace the values in the equations
