Answer:

The answer is 2 cakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know:

-Each cake requires 2 1/2 cups of sugar.

-Sheila has 7 1/3 cups of sugar.

What we need to know:

-How many cakes can Sheila make with 7 1/3 cups of sugar.

Remember:

-You must make a whole cake.

Show your work:

-I am going to convert the fraction into a decimal.

-2 1/2=2.5 and 7 1/3=7.3

-2 cakes will require 5 cups of sugar and you will remain with 2.3 cups of sugar.

-You <em>cannot </em>use 2.3 cups of sugar to make a cake. It must be in full.

The sum of two numbers is 65 one is 4 times as large as the others.what are the numbers?​

<h3><em>Hey! </em></h3>

<u>let the numbers be n and m</u>

<u>n+m=65</u>

<u>n=4m</u>

<em>So when we put our work in:</em>

<u>4m+m=65</u>

<u>5m=65</u>

<u>m=13</u>

<u>n=52</u>

So therefore your two numbers are 52 and 13!

Answer:

\large\boxed{Q2.\qquad C.\ -2x+y=-2}\\\boxed{Q4.\qquad C.\ y=3x+12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Q2:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

m - slope

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (4, 6) and (6, 10). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{10-6}{6-4}=\dfrac{4}{2}=2

y-6=2(x-4)           <em>use distributive property</em>

y-6=2x-8      <em>add 6 to both sides</em>

y=2x-2          <em>subteact 2 from both sides</em>

-2x+y=-2

Q4:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

Put the slope m = 3 and the coordinateso f the point (-2, 6) to the point-slope form of an equation of a line:

y-6=3(x-(-2))

y-6=3(x+2)         <em>use distributive property</em>

y-6=3x+6     <em>add 6 to both sides</em>

y=3x+12

A certain radioactive material decays in such a way that the mass in kilograms remaining after t years is given by the function
Angelina_Jolie [31]

The mass of radioactive material remaining after 50 years would be 48.79 kilograms

<h3>How to determine the amount</h3>

It is important to note that half - life is the time it takes for the amount of a substance to reduce by half its original size.

Given the radioactive decay formula as

m(t)=120e−0.018t

Where

t= 50 years

m(t) is the remaining amount

Substitute the value of t

m(t) = 120e^-^0^.^0^1^8^(^5^0^)

m(t) = 120e^-^0^.^9

Find the exponential value

m(t) = 48.788399

m(t) = 48.79 kilograms to 2 decimal places

Thus, the mass of radioactive material remaining after 50 years would be 48.79 kilograms
