Answer:

x is 71

Step-by-step explanation:

X + 72 + 37 = 180 ( Sum of angles in a triangle)

X = 180 - 72 - 37

X = 71

Dina wants to make 15 3/4 cups of strawberry drink by mixing water and strawberry syrup with a ratio of 2 1/4 cup of water for e

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

The water she need is $7\frac{7}{8} \ cups.$ and strawberry syrup $11\frac{13}{16}\ cups$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Dina wants to make 15 3/4 cups of strawberry drink by mixing water and strawberry syrup with a ratio of 2 1/4 cup of water for every 3/4 cup of syrup.

Now, to find the quantity of water and syrup she need to use.

As given in question ratio so:

Strawberry syrup = 2 1/4 = 9/4.

Water = 3/4.

Total cups of strawberry drink = 15 3/4 = 63/4.

Let the strawberry syrup be $\frac{9}{4} x$ .

And let the water be $\frac{3}{4} x$ .

According to question:

$\frac{9x}{4} + \frac{3x}{4}=\frac{63}{4}$ .

On adding the fractions:

⇒ $\frac{9x+3x}{4} =\frac{63}{4}$

⇒ $\frac{12x}{4} =\frac{63}{4}$

Multiplying both sides by 4 we get:

⇒ $12x=63$

Dividing both sides by 12 we get:

⇒ $x=\frac{63}{12}$

Dividing numerator and denominator by 3 on R.H.S we get:

⇒ $x=\frac{21}{4}$

Now, putting the value of $x$ on ratios:

Strawberry syrup = $\frac{9}{4}\times x=\frac{9}{4}\times\frac{21}{4}$

= $\frac{189}{16}$

= $11\frac{13}{16}\ cups$

Water = $\frac{3}{4}\times x =\frac{3}{4} \times\frac{21}{4}$

= $\frac{63}{8}$

= $7\frac{7}{8} \ cups.$

Therefore, the water she need is $7\frac{7}{8} \ cups.$ and strawberry syrup $11\frac{13}{16}\ cups$ .

6. A prism has bases that are equilateral triangles with sides lengths of 10 inches and a length of 30 inches.

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The volume of the prism is $1,299\ in^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the prism is equal to

$V=BL$

where

B is the area of the triangular base

L is the length of the prism

we have

$L=30\ in$

Find the area of the base B

The area of a equilateral triangle is equal to

$B=\frac{1}{2}(10)^{2} sin(60\°)$

$B=25\sqrt{3}\ in^{2}$

substitute

$V=(25\sqrt{3})(30)=1,299\ in^{3}$

What is the y-intercept of the function, represented by the table of values below? x: -2,1,2,4,7 y: 14,8,6,2,-4

anastassius [24]

Answer:

The y-intercept is at y = 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

It will be between y = 14 and y = 7 because the corresponding x values are -2 and 1.

An increase of 3 units of x gives a decrease of 6 units of y fro the above values.

Then an increase of 1 ( 1 to 2) in x gives decrease in y of 2 (8 to 6). The other values show the same pattern.

So very unit increase in x, the y values change by -2.

So from x = -2 to 0 is +2 units for x and this will be -4 units for y so the y-intercept ( when x = 0) will be at y = 14-4 = 10

y-intercept is (0,10).
