Answer:
If using one pound of pumpkin the baker needs to use 4 pounds of flour mixture
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1: I am going to convert the measurements
into decimals
8/5=1.6
2/5=.4
step 2: I will use cross multiplication to find out how much pumpkin for one pound of flour
1.6=.4
1=?
1*.4=.4/1.6=.25
step 3: I will convert .25 into a fraction
.25=1/4
for every 1/4 pound pumpkin, I will use 1 pound of flour
which is why
If using one pound of pumpkin the baker needs to use 4 pounds of flour mixture
Answer:
y = x^2 - 4x - 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
The roots are 2 + √10 and 2 - √10, so in factor form we have:
(x - (2 + √10))(x - (2 - √10))
= ( x - 2 - √10)(x - 2 + √10)
= x^2 - 2x + √10x - 2x + 4 - 2√10 - √10x + 2√10 - √100
= x^2 -4x + 4 - 10
= x^2 - 4x - 6.
Answer:
3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5 + x = 7/10
x = 7/10 - 2/5
x = 7/10 - 4/10
x = 3/10
Start the equation by putting the equations equal to each other 3x+14=7x-10
Next +10 on both sides
3x+14=7x-10
+10 +10
You are left with 3x+24=7x
because the 10's canceled each other out.
Next -3x on both sides
3x+24=7x
-3x +3x
You are left with 24= 10x
because like before the 3's canceled each other out
Now you will divide both sides by 10
24=10x
