Patrick is making 8 pizzas. he has 15 2/3 cups of mozzarella cheese that he wants to divide evenly among the pizzas.

how many cups of cheese should he put on the pizzas?

Answers

Answer 1
Since Patrick has 15 2/3 cups of mozzarella to distribute among 8 pizzas; take 15 2/3 and divide it by 8. 15 2/3 must be converted to a mixed number (take denominator 3 times the whole number 15 = 45 and add the numerator 2 which give you 47/3 (denominator remains the same) so you have  47/3). Take
47/3 and divide it by 8 but you have to convert the division in to multiplication and use the reciprocal of 8 which would be 8 = its reciprocal 1/8. We are now left with 47/3 x 1/8 = 47/24; take 47/24 and simplify by taking 47 divided by 24 and we would have 1 23/24 cups per pizza.

Write the expression in algebraic form. [hint: sketch a right triangle.] tan(arcsec(x/3))

Answers

Sketch  a right triangle having adjacent side(A) is given as “3”, hypotenuse side (H) is “x” and assigning angle “a” as the angle between A and H. Using Pythagorean theorem, you will get “square root of x-squared minus 9” as the opposite side (O). Using SOH CAH TOA function, and since secant is the reciprocal of cosine, sec(a) = x/3. Thus, a = arcsec(x/3). The remaining expression tan(a) is Opposite side over Adjacent side which is equal to “square root of x^2 - 9” over "3". Therefore, the algebraic expression would be: tan(arcsec(x/3)) = “sqrt (x^2 -9)” /3. Different answers can be made depending on which side you consider the “3” and “x”.

Given that BC = 7, AB = 17.89, and C is between A and B, what is the length of ?

Answers

*assuming that ABC is a straight line** 
then you have 
AB = 17.89 ..... this is the length of the whole line 

BC is a part of the line = 7 

therefore the length of the other part = 17.89 - 7 

= 10.89
17.89-7=10.89
You know that the distance from A to b is 17.89 and the distance from b to c is 7.  So the length from a to c is the whole distance(a to b) subtracted by a portion of the distance(b to c) giving us 10.89

Unit conversion is the conversion of one unit to another unit with its standard conversion.

The actual dimension of the recreation room is 24 feet x 21 feet.

What is unit conversion?

It is the conversion of one unit to another unit with its standard conversion.

Example:

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 km = 1000 m

1m = 100 cm

1 hour - 60 minutes

We have,

Recreation room dimension on the blueprint:

= 2 inches x 1.75 inches ______(A)

Scale factor:

1 inch = 12 feet

The actual dimension of the recreational room:

1 inch = 12 feet

Multiply 2 on both sides.

2 inches = 24 feet _____(1)

1 inch = 12 feet

Multiply 1.75 on both sides.

1.75 inches = 1.75 x 12 feet

1.75 inches = 21 feet ______(2)

From (1) and (2) and (A) we get,

= 2 inches x 1.75 inches

= 24 feet x 21 feet

Thus,

The actual dimension of the recreation room is 24 feet x 21 feet.

Keith's florists has 15 delivery trucks, used mainly to deliver flowers and flower arrangements in the greenville, south carolina, area. of these 15 trucks, 5 have brake problems. a sample of 4 trucks is randomly selected. what is the probability that 2 of those tested have defective brakes?

Answers

Given the fact that 5 out of the 15 trucks have brake problems, we can find the probability that a delivery truck has brake problems as 5/15 = 0.3333. In the sample of 4 trucks, the number of trucks that have defective brackets is a binomially distributed random variable with n = 4 and p = 0.3333. Using the formula for binomial distribution, we get P(X = 2) = 4C2 * 0.3333² * (1–0.3333)² = 0.2963.
The answer is 0.2963. 
 

Answer:

Hence, the probability is:

0.296

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved with the help of the binomial probability as:

[tex]P(x=r)=n_C_rp^r(1-p)^{n-r}[/tex]

where n denote the quantity which are chosen.

r denote the quantity whose probability is to be determined or success.

and p denote the probability of success.

with n=4 since 4 trucks are randomly selected.

p=5/15=1/3 ( As 5 have brake problems out of total 15 trucks)

1-p=10/15=2/3

r=2 ( since we are asked to find the probability that 2 of those tested have defective brakes)

Hence, the probability is:

[tex]P(x=2)=4_C_2(\dfrac{1}{3})^2(\dfrac{2}{3})^2\\\\\\P(x=2)=\dfrac{4!}{2!\times (4-2)!}\times \dfrac{1}{9}\times \dfrac{4}{9}\\\\\\P(x=2)=0.296[/tex]

Hence, the probability is:

Triangle A B C with angle A measuring thirty degrees, angle B measuring seventy degrees and angle C marked x

Answers

Since triangles always have a total amount of 180 degrees, adding the amounts we already know and subtracting that amount from 180, we get the value x. So the answer would be 80 degrees.

Answer: In a triangle, the sum of the 3 angles is always equal to 180°

Then if the angle A is equal to 30°, the angle B is equal to 70°, what is the angle C?

if x is the angle C, and using the first statement, we got:

30° + 70° + x = 180°

100° + x = 180°

x = 180° - 100° = 80°

So the angle of C is equal to 80°.

Um navio esta situado exatamente a 10 milhas a leste de um ponto A. Um observador, situado exatamente a sul do navio, ve o ponto A sob um angulo de 40°. Qual a distância entre o observador e o navio?

Answers

1) Considerando o ponto A, um vertice; o ponto O  onde o observador está e por ultimo, o ponto N que é onde o navio está.
Com estes 3 pontos formamos um triangulo. 
O angulo OAN vale 40º
O lado AN vale 10 milhas
O que queremos saber é a distância entre o observador e o navio: lado NO

2) Para isso calculamos a tangente deste angulo: tg 40º= angulo oposto/ angulo adjacente.
angulo oposto é o NO e o lado adjacente ao angulo é o AN que vale 10

Se fores à calculadora vês que tg40º é 0,83.

ang oposto= 8,3 milhas

Mr. Guzman drove his car 1080 miles in 6 weeks.



If he drove the same distance every week, which equation shows how far he drove each week (d)?



A.


d = 6 ÷ 1080



B.


d = 1080 – 6


C.


d = 1080 • 6


D.


d = 1080 ÷ 6

Answers

The answer is d :)

All you have to do is take the distance she drove and divide it by how many weeks it took.

Mr. Guzman drove 1080 miles in 6 weeks. To find the distance driven each week, use the equation d = 1080 ÷ 6, which equals 180 miles per week. Therefore, the correct equation is option D.

Mr. Guzman drove 1080 miles in 6 weeks. We need to find out how far he drove each week if he drove the same distance every week.

Identify the Total Distance Driven: 1080 milesIdentify the Total Time Period: 6 weeks

Set Up the Equation: Since Mr. Guzman drove the same distance every week, we use the formula:

d = Total Distance / Total Time.

Substitute Known Values:

d = 1080 ÷ 6

Calculate the Result:

d = 180 miles per week

The correct equation that shows how far Mr. Guzman drove each week is d = 1080 ÷ 6, which corresponds to option D.

The area of a rectangle is 45 square inches. The rectangle is 9 inches long. How wide is the rectangle?

A. 5 inches

B. 36 inches

C. 27 inches

D. 3 inches

Answers

the answer is definitely 5 :)

Final answer:

To find the width of a rectangle with an area of 45 square inches and a length of 9 inches, divide the area by the length, resulting in a width of 5 inches (Option A).

Explanation:

The area of a rectangle can be calculated by multiplying its length by its width. In this case, we know the area is 45 square inches and the length is 9 inches. To find the width, we divide the area by the length.

Width = Area ÷ Length = 45 sq in ÷ 9 in = 5 in

Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 5 inches, which corresponds to option A.

A firework exploded 1,360 meters away and the sound of the firework took 4 seconds to reach you. At what speed did the sound travel?

Answers

The answer is 340 meters per second. You divide the distance by the time to get the answer.

Answer:

Speed of sound, v = 340 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

A exploded 1360 meters away, d = 1360 meters

time taken, t = 4 seconds

We need to find the speed of the travelled sound. Speed of sound is equal to the distance covered divided by total time taken i.e.

[tex]v=\dfrac{d}{t}[/tex]

[tex]v=\dfrac{1360\ m}{4\ s}[/tex]

v = 340 m/s

So, the speed with which sound is travelled is 340 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
