The student wrote the wrong operation. "The sum of 5y and 3" translates to 5y+3. And here means addition.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to assume the smallest integer.
Let,
the smallest integer is x
So, the other two integers are-
x+1 and x+2
Now,
the sum of these 3 integers is greater than smallest integer by 11
So, we get
x+(x+1)+(x+2) =x+11
This is the required equation.
Answer:
x=75
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use proportions to solve this problem. Put the side of the small triangle over the side of the large triangle.
42 50
------ = ----------
42+63 50+x
42 50
------ = ----------
105 50+x
Using cross products
42(50+x) = 50*(105)
2100+42x = 5250
Subtract 2100 from each side
2100-2100+42x = 5250-2100
42x =3150
Divide by 42
42x/42 = 3150/42
x = 75
Okay so 11/4 needs to be multiplied by 2 so that the D match up.
so 11/4 x 2 = 22/8
22/8 - 3/8 = 19/8
The difference is 19/8
The information's given in the question should be very minutely checked. Based on those given information's the answer to the question can easily be deduced.
Amount of sugar in the cabinet of Cassie = 1/2 pound
Amount of sugar required by Cassie to make her cake recipe = 2/10 pound
= 1/5 pounds
Then
The number of cakes that Cassie can make = (1/2)/(1/5)
= 5/2
= 2 1/2
So from the above deduction we can easily conclude that Cassie can make a total of 2 cakes with the sugar she has and there will still be some sugar left.
