The given partial fraction divided by the fraction of sugar in a scoop is

equal to multiplying the partial fraction by the reciprocal of the fraction.

  • The number of scoops of sugar needed is <u>10 scoops</u>.

Reasons:

The amount of sugar the recipe Emma is making needs = 2 1/2 cups

Amount of sugar in each scoop of sugar = 1/4 cups

Required:

The amount of scoops Emma needs to add for the entire recipe

Solution:

The amount of sugar needed = 2 1/2 cups

Amount of sugar per scoop = 1/4 cups/scoop

Therefore;

  • \displaystyle Number \ of \ scoops = \mathbf{\frac{Cups \ of \ sugar \ needed}{Cups \ of \ of \ sugar \ per \ scoop}}

Which gives;

  • \displaystyle Number \ of \ scoops \ needed  = \mathbf{\frac{2 \frac{1}{2}  \ cups \ of \ sugar }{\frac{1}{4} \  cups \ of \ sugar \ per \ scoop}}

\displaystyle  2 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{2}

\displaystyle \frac{ \frac{5}{2}}{\frac{1}{4} } =  \mathbf{ \frac{5}{2} \times \frac{4}{1} = \frac{20}{2 }} = 10

Therefore;

\displaystyle Number \ of \ scoops \ needed  = \mathbf{\frac{2 \frac{1}{2}  \ cups \ of \ sugar }{\frac{1}{4} \  cups \ of \ sugar \ per \ scoop}} = 10 \, scoops

The number of scoops she needs for the entire recipe is <u>10 scoops</u>

Plz help ITS NOT A LOT !!!!!! Plz help
padilas [110]

Answer: Actually, you must use the Pythagorean Theorem!

a squared plus b squared equals c squared. So if you substitute in the values, a is 2 units and b is three units. 2 squared is 4 and 3 squared is 9.

4 + 9 = 13 so the answer is the square root of 13. (√13)

What is the value of 36X negative Y over to when X equals three and Y equals -6
Rus_ich [418]

<u><em>Note:</em></u>

<em>Your question is a little unclear. But, from my understanding, I assume you may be asking the evaluation of the expression 36x - y when x = 3 and y = -6.</em>

<em>so I will solve based on my assumption which anyways would clear your concept.</em>

Answer:

The value of 36x - y when x = 3 and y = -6 will be: 114

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Assuming the expression

36x - y

To Determine

Evaluate 36x - y when x = 3 and y = -6

Given the expression

36x - y

substitute x = 3 and y = -6 to evaluate the expression

36x-y= 36(3) - (-6)

            = 108+6

            = 114

Therefore, the value of 36x - y when x = 3 and y = -6 will be: 114
