a school cafeteria makes cheese sauce for macaroni using 15 cups of swiss cheese 17 cups of cheddar cheese. Perry tries to make the sauce for a family party using 5 cups of swiss cheese and 7 cups of cheddar cheese. is Perry using the correct ratio? explain. (pls do explain. it's on my school work and I need an explanation.)


(middle school ratios)

Answers

Answer 1

Cafeteria ratio of Swiss cheese to cheddar cheese is 15:17.

Perry’s ratio of Swiss chess to cheddar cheese is 5:7.

Wrong ratio because 5 * 3 = 15 but 7 * 3 does not equal 17.

Answer 2

For this case we have that by definition, it is known as proportion to the relationship of equality that exists between two reasons, that is, between two comparisons. That is: if [tex]\frac {a} {b}[/tex]is a ratio, then the equality [tex]\frac {a} {b} = \frac {c} {d}[/tex] will be a proportion.

Then, 15 cups of Swiss cheese for every 17 cheddar:

1[tex]5:17\\\frac {15} {17}[/tex]

We want to verify the proportion:

[tex]15:17 :: 5: 7\\\frac {15} {17} = \frac {5} {7}\\7 * 15 = 5 * 17[/tex]

Equality is not met!

Answer:

You are not using the correct proportion

I need the measurement of each angle (please show work)

Answers

Answer:

∠E = ∠F = 41°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Sum the 3 given angles and equate to 180

x + x + 98 = 180 ( subtract 98 from both sides )

2x = 82 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 41

Hence

∠E = ∠F = 41°

Steve can jog 14 miles in 2 hours. At this rate, how many miles can he jog in 1/4 hour?

Answers

Answer:

1  3/4 miles in 1/4 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios:

 x           (1/4) hr

--------- = ------------

14 mi       2 hr

Cross multiplying, we get 2x = (1/4)(14), or

                                              x = (1/4)(7), or x = 7/4

Steve can jog 7/4 miles in 1/4 hour.  That's 1  3/4 miles in 1/4 hour.

Solve the equation. −4x+3=19

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{x=-4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]-4x+3=19\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\-4x+3-3=19-3\\\\-4x=16\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-4)}\\\\\dfrac{-4x}{-4}=\dfrac{16}{-4}\\\\x=-4[/tex]

Step 1: Combine like terms ( 3 and 19) by subtracting 3 to both sides

-4x + (3-3) = 19 -3

-4x = 16

Step 2: Isolate x by dividing -4 to both sides

10) What is the base of the triangle?

From this triangle we know:

THE AREA:

[tex]A=80cm^2[/tex]

THE HEIGHT:

[tex]H=B+12[/tex]

We know that the area, height, and base of a triangle are related according to the following formula:

[tex]A=\frac{BH}{2} \\ \\ Substituting \ H: \\ \\ A=\frac{B(B+12)}{2} \\ \\ Substituting \ A: \\ \\  80=\frac{B(B+12)}{2} \\ \\ 2(80)=B(B+12) \\ \\ 160=B^2+12B \\ \\ B^2+12B-160=0[/tex]

Solving B by quadratic formula:

[tex]B_{12}=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \\ \\ B_{12}=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{12^2-4(1)(-160)}}{2(1)} \\ \\ B_{12}=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{12^2-4(1)(-160)}}{2(1)} \\ \\ B_{1}=8 \ and \ B_{2}=-20[/tex]

Since we can’t have a negative value of the base, the correct option is:

11) How long will it take the water balloon to hit the ground?

We must use the formula:

[tex]h(t)=-5.2t^2+v_{0}t+h_{0}[/tex]

Since James drops the balloon from a height of 45m, then this is the initial height, so [tex]h_{0}=45m[/tex]. Moreover, at the very instant he drops the balloon the initial velocity is zero, so [tex]v_{0}=0[/tex]. When the ballon hit the ground [tex]h(t)=0[/tex]. Therefore:

[tex]0=-5.2t^2+45[/tex]

Solving this equation:

[tex]5.2t^2=45 \\ \\ t^2=\frac{45}{5.2} \\ \\ t^2=8.653 \\ \\ t=\sqrt{8.653} \\ \\ t=2.941s[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest tenth:

[tex]\boxed{t=2.9s}[/tex]

Finally, the water balloon will hit the ground after 2.9 seconds.

12) Height and initial velocity

We have the equation:

[tex]h(t)=-16t^2+32t+12[/tex]

But we know that this equation follows the form:

[tex]h(t)=-16t^2+v_{0}t+h_{0}[/tex]

According to this:

The height of the platform is [tex]h_{0}=12ft[/tex]

The initial velocity of the ball is [tex]v_{0}=32ft/s[/tex]

There are 4 semi- trailer truck park a line at the stop. After the first truck, each in the line weights 2 tons more than the truck before it. The truck weight a total of 32 tons. How many pounds does each truck weight?

Answers

Let's say the first truck weighs x tons

Then, the weight of 2nd truck = x+2 tons

The weight of 3rd truck = (x + 2) + 2 = x+4 tons

The weight of 4th truck = (x + 4) + 2 = x+6 tons

Total weight of 4 trucks:

x + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) = 32

 

which can be solved easily to give x = 5

What is the length of chord ST in P below

Answers

Answer:

A. 7 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The correct option is A. The length of chord ST in P is 7 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: QR=7, distance between center and QR is 3.2 units and the distance between center and ST is 3.2 units.

If two chords are equidistant from the center of the circle, then the length of both chords are same.

From the given figure it is clear that the two chords QR and ST are equidistant from the center of the circle,so the length of both chords are same.

What are the solutions to the system of equations? y=− x 2 +5x+6 −6x+y=6
(0,−1) and (6, 0)
(−1, 0) and (0, 6)
(0, 6) and (1, 2)
(−1, 0) and (6, 0)

Answers

Answer:

option B

(−1, 0) and (0, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question two equations,

Equation 1

y =−x² + 5x + 6

Equation 2

−6x + y = 6

plug value of y in second equation

−6x −x² + 5x + 6 = 6

-x² -6x + 5x +6 - 6 = 0

-x² - x + 0 = 0

-x² -x = 0

-x(x+1) = 0

x = 0

and

x = -1

plug value of x in second equation to find y

x = 0

−6(0) + y = 6

 0 + y = 6

 y = 6

 and

x = -1

−6(-1) + y = 6

6 + y = 6

y = 0

Answer:

(−1, 0) and (0, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is

[tex]y=-x^2+5x+6[/tex]

and

[tex]-6x+y=6[/tex]

Solve for y in this second equation

[tex]y=6x+6[/tex]

We equate the two equations to get;

[tex]-x^2+5x+6=6x+6[/tex]

[tex]x^2+x=0[/tex]

[tex]x(x+1)=0[/tex]

x=0,x=-1

When x=0,

y=6(0)+6

y=6

When x=-1

y=6(-1)+6

y=0

You combine like terms to arrive with the answer.

Hello!

The answer is:

- The first operation match with the polynomial:

B.  [tex]9x^{2} -2x+2[/tex]

- The second operation match with the polynomial:

A. [tex]-9x^{2}-2x+7[/tex]

- The third operation match with the polynomial:

C. [tex]9x^{2} +2x-7[/tex]

Why?

In order to solve the given operations, we need to group the like terms.

Remember, like terms are terms that share the same variable and the same exponent.

For example:

[tex]x^{2} +2x^{2} +3x^{3} +2=3x^{2} +3x^{3} +2[/tex]

We only operate with the variables that shares the same exponent.

Also, we need to remember the distributive property:

[tex](a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd[/tex]

So, we are given the following polynomials:

[tex]A.9x^{2} -2x+7\\\\B. 9x^{2} -2x+2\\\\C. 9x^{2} +2x-7[/tex]

And we need to perform the following operations:

First operation,

[tex](7x^{2}-5x+3)+(2x^{2} +3x-1)=7x^{2} +2x^{2} -5x+3x+3-1\\\\7x^{2} +2x^{2} -5x+3x+3-1=9x^{2} -2x+2[/tex]

So, the first operation match with the polynomial:

B.  [tex]9x^{2} -2x+2[/tex]

Second operation,

[tex](3x^{2}-4x-4)+(-12x^{2}+2x+11)=3x^{2} -12x^{2} -4x+2x-4+11\\\\3x^{2} -12x^{2} -4x+2x-4+11=-9x^{2}-2x+7[/tex]

So, the second operation match with the polynomial:

A. [tex]-9x^{2}-2x+7[/tex]

Third operation,

[tex](4x^{2} -3x-9)+(5x^{2} +5x+2)=4x^{2}+5x^{2} -3x+5x-9+2\\\\4x^{2}+5x^{2} -3x+5x-9+2=9x^{2} +2x-7[/tex]

So, the second operation match with the polynomial:

C. [tex]9x^{2} +2x-7[/tex]

Find the area of the irregular figure

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A(rectangle) = 14 * 21 = 294

A(triangle) = ((21 - 12) * 16) / 2 = 72

A(figure) = 294 + 72 = 366

Answer:

B 366 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 21 by 14 to find area of the rectangle

21 × 14 = 294

Subtract 12 from 21

21 - 12 = 9

Multiply 9 by 16

144

Divide 144 by 2 to get area of triangle

144 ÷ 2 = 72

Add 72 with 294 to get final answer

To find the volume of a rectangular prism, we use the formula

Volume = length × width × height.

Since the rectangular prism has a length of 4 m, a width of 2 m, and a height of 1 m we can plug this information into the formula.

4 m × 2 m = 8 m

8 m × 1 m = 8 m³

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 8 m³.
