Mike wants to make meatloaf. His recipe

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

1 1/4 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of beef to pork is 3:1. What this means is that out of the 5 pounds of meat Mike will use for his meatloaf, 3 parts of it will be beef and 1 part will be pork, which gives us four parts total.

So the ratio of pork to total meat would be 1:4, or 1/4. Now we need to multiply 5 by 1/4 in order to get the amount of pork. Since multiplying by 1/4 is the same as dividing by 4, we can just divide to make things simpler.

p = 5 \times  \frac{1}{4}  \\ p =  \frac{5}{4}

The answer, expressed as an improper fraction, is 5/4. However, the question is asking for a mixed number, so we'll need to convert our answer. We just need to subtract from the numerator so that the fraction is equal to 4/4.

\frac{5}{4}  -  \frac{4}{4}  =  \frac{1}{4}

Since 4/4 is equivalent to 1, we'll just simplify this further.

p =  \frac{4}{4}  +  \frac{1}{4}  \\ p = 1 \frac{1}{4}

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the recursive formula

a_{n} = \frac{1}{2}a_{n-1} with a₁ = 1, then

a₂ = \frac{1}{2} a₁ = \frac{1}{2} × 1 = \frac{1}{2}

a₃ = \frac{1}{2} a₂ = \frac{1}{2} × \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{4}

Answer: Please Mark Brainliest :) !!

The answer is x= 6 and y= 27.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 9 = 5x + 3

-2x + 9 = -3

y = 5x -3

x = 6

y = 5x -3

y = 5(6) -3

y = 27

X+1/2y=4<br> Solve the equation for Y
AysviL [449]

Answer:8/1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is 8.000 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 4.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 4.000 - 8.000 = -4.000 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

17+(-4)-4/5j-2/5j+6​
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

19 - (6/5)j

Step-by-step explanation:

In this expression we have addition, subtraction and multiplication.

According to order of operations rules, mult. and div. must be carried out before add. or subt.

Therefore, we begin with 17+(-4), which becomes 17 - 4, or 13.

Next we see -4/5j, by which I assume you mean -4/5 * j.

Summarizing what we have so far:

13  - (4/5)j - 2/5j + 6

Combining the j terms, we get

13 - (6/5)j + 6, which collapses to 19 - (6/5)j.
