Jed is baking shortbread for a bake sale. The recipe calls for 1 1 4cups of flour and 1 2stick of butter. How many cups of flour will Jed need if he uses 3 sticks of butter?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: [tex]7\dfrac12[/tex] cups of flour is required for 3 sticks of butter.

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that quantity of flour is proportional to butter.

Given : The recipe calls of [tex]1\dfrac14[/tex] cups of  flour  and [tex]\dfrac12[/tex] stick of butter.

Let [tex]x_1=1\dfrac14=\dfrac{5}{4}[/tex]      [tex]y_1=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

For [tex]y_2=3[/tex] , we will find [tex]x_2[/tex] by using formula of direct proportion: [tex]\dfrac{x_1}{y_1}=\dfrac{x_2}{y_2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{5}{4}}{\dfrac12}=\dfrac{x_3}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{5}{2}=\dfrac{x_3}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x_3=\dfrac{5}{2}\times3= \dfrac{15}2=7\dfrac12[/tex]

Hence, [tex]7\dfrac12[/tex] cups of flour is required for 3 sticks of butter.

Answer 2

15/2 cups of flour!

Pulling out like terms

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  6k3 + 10k2 - 56k  =   2k • (3k2 + 5k - 28)

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

4.2     Factoring  3k2 + 5k - 28

The first term is,  3k2  its coefficient is  3 .

The middle term is,  +5k  its coefficient is  5 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -28

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   3 • -28 = -84

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -84  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   5 .

     -84    +    1    =    -83

     -42    +    2    =    -40

     -28    +    3    =    -25

     -21    +    4    =    -17

     -14    +    6    =    -8

     -12    +    7    =    -5

     -7    +    12    =    5    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -7  and  12

                    3k2 - 7k + 12k - 28

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   k • (3k-7)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   4 • (3k-7)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (k+4)  •  (3k-7)

            Which is the desired factorization

Final result :

 2k • (3k - 7) • (k + 4)

Alex and Freddy collect stamps. The number of stamps in Alex’s collection is in ratio 3:5 to the number of stamps in Freddy’s collection. If Freddy gives Alex 10 stamps, the ratio will change to 7:9. How many stamps are in both collections together?

Answers

suppose Alex has 3x stamps, Freddy has 5x stamps. After Freddy gives Alex 10 stamps, Alex has 3x+10 while Freddy has 5x-10
the new ratio is 7 to 9, so we have the equation: (3x+10)/(5x-10)=7/9
9(3x+10)=7(5x-10)
27x+90=35x-70
160=8x
x=20
So Alex has 3*20=60 stamps while Freddy has 5*20=100. Together they have 160

Trey deposits $8000 into an account that pays simple interest at a rate of 5% per year. How much interest will he be paid in the first 4 years
6

Answers

Answer:

1600

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to calculate the interest on $8000 at 5% interest per year after 4 year(s).

The formula we'll use for this is the simple interest formula, or:

Where:

P is the principal amount, $8000.00.

r is the interest rate, 5% per year, or in decimal form, 5/100=0.05.

t is the time involved, 4....year(s) time periods.

So, t is 4....year time periods.

To find the simple interest, we multiply 8000 × 0.05 × 4 to get that:

The interest is: $1600.00

Usually now, the interest is added onto the principal to figure some new amount after 4 year(s),

or 8000.00 + 1600.00 = 9600.00. For example:

If you borrowed the $8000.00, you would now owe $9600.00

If you loaned someone $8000.00, you would now be due $9600.00

If owned something, like a $8000.00 bond, it would be worth $9600.00 now.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (5,6) and has a slope of 2 ?

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 2, thus

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (5, 6) into the partial equation

6 = 10 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 10 = - 4

y = 2x - 4 ← equation of line
