Lydia purchased a 15 cup bag of pasta. the suggested serving is 3/4 cup per person. how many servings are in a 15 cup bag of pasta

Answers

Answer 1
The answer is 20, if you divided 15 by 3/4, you have your answer.
Answer 2

To find out how many servings are in a 15 cup bag of pasta when serving size is 3/4 cup per person, divide 15 by 3/4, which equals 20 servings.

Firstly, convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction for easier division: 3/4 remains the same since it is already a proper fraction.

Now, carry out the division: 15 ÷ (3/4)
= 15 × (4/3) (You multiply by the reciprocal of 3/4)

Then, multiply the numbers:
= 15 × 4 ÷ 3
= 60 ÷ 3
= 20

Therefore, there are 20 servings in a 15 cup bag of pasta when the serving size is 3/4 cup per person.

If an amount of money, called principle, p, is deposited into an account that earns interest at a rate r, compound annually, then in two years that investment will grow to an amount A, given by the formula A=P(1+r)^2. If a principle amount of $5000 grows to $5940.50 in two years, what is the interest rate?

Answers

All u gotta do is plug numbers substituted by the variable into the equation.
A = P(1+r)^t
A = $5940.50 
P = $5000
r = ?
t = 2yrs
$5940.50 = $5000(1+r)^t
--------------    --------------------
  $5000            $5000
1.1881 = (1+r)^2
sqrt(1.1881) = 1+r
1.09 = 1+r
     -1     -1
-------   ----
0.09 = r
r = 0.09

Final answer:

By using the compound interest formula A=P(1+r)² and the given values, we find the interest rate to be approximately 0.09, or 9% annually.

Explanation:

To find the interest rate r that grew the principal P from $5000 to $5940.50 over two years with compound interest, we use the formula A=P(1+r)². Here, A is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest. We are given that A is $5940.50 and P is $5000.

Let's plug in the values and solve for r:

5940.50 = 5000(1+r)²
1.1881 = (1+r)²

To find r, we take the square root of 1.1881:

Subtracting 1 from both sides to isolate r, we get:

r = 1.09 - 1
r = 0.09

The approximate interest rate is 0.09, which means the annual interest rate is 9%.

The science club raised money to clean the beach. They spent $29 on trash bags and $74 on waterproof boots. They still have $47 left. How much did they raise?

Answers

29 + 74 is 103. 103 + 47 is 150. they raised $150

Answer:

They raised $150

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this you just need to reverse the actions that they took in order to get to 47 dollars left, so the total amount they raised will be represented by letter X, so 47 is what is left after spending 29 on trash bags and 74 on waterproof boots, that means that from the total we are withdrawing those amounts and the result will be 47:

Total-Money spent=47

X-29 - 74= 47

x=47+74+29

x=150

So now we know that they originally had 150 dollars and that would be what they raised.

Kellogg's produced 715000 boxes of cornflakes this year. This was 110% of annual production last year. What was last year's annual production?

Answers

Let last year product be x boxes.

110% of x means [tex]\displaystyle{ \frac{110}{100}\cdot x [/tex].

Thus, we solve the equation:

Multiplying both sides by  [tex]\displaystyle{ \frac{100}{110}[/tex], we have:

to solve this you put it into a ratio

5/8
if a college has a total of 4000 students, that will go on bottom and x will be on top
x/4000
to solve for x you would multiply 5 by 4000, and then divide by 8
this would give you x=2500

Let a = {2, 9}, b = {9, 13, 28}, d = {40} and s = sample space = a ∪ b ∪

Answers

Final answer:

The union of sets a, b, and d (a ∪ b ∪ d) gives you the set {2, 9, 13, 28, 40}. Set 'a' is simply the set containing elements 2 and 9.

Explanation:

To resolve the question, we need to analyze what each symbol means. The ∪ symbol in set theory represents union, meaning everything that is in either of the sets or in both. However, it seems there is a typographical error in your question with 'bc'. As 'c' is not defined, we will proceed by ignoring that particular part and focus on 'a' which is defined.

So, if we're looking to identify a = {2,9}, it simply means the set that contains two elements: 2 and 9.

As your question stands, based on the provided sets, s = a ∪ b ∪ d = {2, 9, 9, 13, 28, 40} but when we simplify the set (since a set does not contain duplicate values), we get s = {2, 9, 13, 28, 40}.

Where are the asymptotes of f(x) = tan(4x − π) from x = 0 to x = pi over 2 ?

Answers

[tex]tan(4x- \pi )= \frac{sin(4x- \pi )}{cos(4x- \pi )} [/tex]

The asymptotes are where the graph is undefined. Since: tan(x) =sin(x)/cos(x)
It is where cos(4x-π) = 0

cos(4x-π) = 0 when the inside is -π/2 , π/2 , 3π/2

4x - π = π/2
4x = π/2 + π
4x = 3π/2
x = 3π/8

4x - π = 3π/2
4x = 3π/2 + π
4x = 5π/2
x = 5π/8
This ones outside the interval (5π/8 > π/2) , try -π/2

4x - π = -π/2
4x = -π/2 + π
4x = π/2
x = π/8

Asymptotes are π/8 and 3π/8

Write a rule for the linear function in the table.

A; f(x) = x + 5
B;f(x) = x + 1
C;f(x) = 2x + 1
D;f(x) = –2x – 1

Answers

the correct answer is A. [tex]\( f(x) = 2x + 1 \).[/tex]

To find the rule for the linear function represented in the table, we can use the formula for a linear function, which is:

[tex]\[ f(x) = mx + b \][/tex]

Where:

- m is the slope of the line

- b is the y-intercept

Given the table:

[tex]\[ \x & : 2, 5, 8, 11 \\f(x) & : 5, 11, 17, 23\end{align}\][/tex]

We can start by finding the slope (m) using the formula:

[tex]\[ m = \frac{{f(x_2) - f(x_1)}}{{x_2 - x_1}} \][/tex]

Let's choose two points from the table, for example, (2, 5) and (5, 11):

[tex]\[ m = \frac{{11 - 5}}{{5 - 2}} \]\[ m = \frac{{6}}{{3}} \]\[ m = 2 \][/tex]

So, we have found that the slope m is 2.

Now, we can use the slope-intercept form of a line to find the y-intercept (b). We can pick any point from the table to do this. Let's use the point (2, 5):

f(x) = mx + b

5 = 2(2) + b

5 = 4 + b

b = 5 - 4

b = 1

So, we have found that the y-intercept b is 1.

Now, we can write the rule for the linear function:

[tex]\[ f(x) = 2x + 1 \][/tex]

Therefore, the correct answer is A. [tex]\( f(x) = 2x + 1 \).[/tex]

The complete question is:

Write a rule for the linear function in the table.

x = 2,5,8,11

f(x) = 5,11,17,23

A. f(x) = 2x + 1

B. f(x) = x + 5

C. f(x) = –2x – 1

D. f(x) = 1/2x+1
