See below ↓

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

You need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 cookies

Base rate

no. of butter sticks / no. of cookies
3 / 24
1 stick of butter for every 8 cookies

16 cookies

No. of sticks = 16/8
No. of butter sticks = 2

5 butter sticks

No. of cookies = 8 x 5
No. of cookies = 40

Answer:

Sticks of butter : 2

Number of cookies : 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :You need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 giant cookies you bake.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sticks of butter Number of cookies

3 24

x 16

5 y

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let the unknown be x and y..

Since you need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 giant cookies you back

Then 24/3 = 8

Since the number of cookies is 16 then 16/8 = 2

Thus x = 2

Next for y.

Since you need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 giant cookies you back

Then 5 * 8 = 40

Thus, y = 40

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Completed table below:

Sticks of butter Number of cookies

3 24

2 16

5 40

Find the ratio of the area inside the square but outside the circle to the area of the square in the picture

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

0.2146

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture:

The radius of the circle = r. This means that the area of the circle = πr²

Also For the square, the length of the square = 2r, Therefore the area of the square = Length × length = 2r × 2r = 4r²

The area inside the square but outside the circle = Area of square - Area of circle = 4r² - πr² = r²(4 - π) = 0.8584r²

The ratio of the area inside the square but outside the circle to the area of the square = r²(4 - π) / 4r² = (4 - π) / 4 = 1 - π/4 = 0.2146

**MARKING BRAINLIEST PLEASE HELP**

raketka [301]

Answer:

$\text{1. } v=16t+\frac{h-c}{t},\\\text{2. }90\:\mathrm{ft/s}, \\\text{3. Cannot be determined}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The initial equation given to us is $h=-16t^2+vt+c$ . Rearranging the equation to isolate $v$ , we have:

$vt=16t^2+h-c,\\\boxed{v=16t+\frac{h-c}{t}}$

2. Using the equation we rearranged in part 1, we can substitute given values:

$v=16(3)+\frac{131-5}{3},\\v=48+42=\boxed{90\:\mathrm{ft/s}}$

3. We see from our equation in part 1 ( $v=16t+\frac{h-c}{t}$ ) that when $t=0$ , the denominator of our fraction will be equal to 0. Since we cannot divide by 0, the velocity remains undefined and cannot be determined.

PLEASE SHOW FULL SOLUTIONS !!!!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST FOR THE BEST ANSWER. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

a = 8

b ≠ 18

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x - 7

2y = ax + b

For there to be no solution, the lines (if graphed) should be parallel meaning that their slopes are equal but the y-intercepts are different

y = mx +b is the equation of a line where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Multiply the first equation by 2

2y = 8x - 14

2y = ax + b

So a has to equal 8

b can be anything except 14 (otherwise the lines would be the same)

There are 3 bags each containing 100 marbles. Bag 1 has 75 red and 25 blue marbles. Bag 2 has 60 red and 40 blue marbles. Bag 3

jekas [21]

Answer:

0.4 ; 0.6125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Bag 1 : 75 red ; 25 blue

Bag 2: 60 red ; 40 blue

Bag 3: 45 red ; 55 blue

Probability = (required outcome / Total possible outcomes)

A) since the probability of choosing each bag is equal :

BAG A:

P(choosing bag A) = 1 / total number of bags = 1/3 ; P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 25/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (1/3 × 75/100) = 25/300

BAG B:

P(choosing bag B) = 1/3 ;

P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 40/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (1/3 × 40/100) = 40/300

BAG C:

P(choosing bag C) = 1/3

P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 55/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (1/3 × 55/100) = 55/300

= (25/300) × (40/300) × (55/300) = (25 + 40 + 55)/300 = 120/300 = 0.4

2) What is the probability that the marble is blue when the first bag is chosen with probability 0.5 and other bags with equal probability each?

BAG A:

P(choosing bag A) = 0.5 ; P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 25/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (0.5 × 75/100) = (0.5 * 0.75) = 0.375

BAG B:

P(choosing bag B) = (1-0.5) / 2 = 0.25 ;

P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 40/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (0.25 × 40/100) = (0.25 × 0.4) = 0.1

BAG C:

P(choosing bag C) = (1 - (0.5+0.25)) = 0.25

P(choosing blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles = 55/100

HENCE, choosing a blue marble from bag A : = (0.25 × 55/100) = 0.25 × 0.55 = 0.1375

= 0.1375 + 0.1 + 0.375 = 0.6125

Find the balance at the end of 4 years if $10,000 is deposited at a rate of 1.5% simple interest.

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Principal amount (P) = $10,000

Rate (R) = 1.5%

Time (T) = 4 years

Simple interest, I = P X R X T / 100

= 10000 X 1.5 X 4 /100

= 60000 / 100

= $600

Therefore, Balance = P + I

= 10000 + 600

= $10600
