A cafe sells cakes and scones.
On Tuesday, the ratio of the number of cakes sold to the number of scones sold was
5:2
On Tuesday, the cafe sold 80 scones.
How many cakes were sold on Tuesday?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

200 cakes

Step-by-step explanation:

1) divide 80 by 2 to get 40

2) times 40 by 5 50 get 200

answer is 200 cakes sold on Tuesday

Answer 2

On Tuesday, the cafe sold 200 cakes which is the ratio of the number of cakes sold to the number of scones sold was 5:2.

What is the proportion?

A mathematical assessment of two numbers is called a proportion. If two sets of provided numbers rise or fall in the same relation, then the ratios are said to be directly proportional to each other. Proportions are represented by the symbols "::" or "=".

We have been given that the ratio of the number of cakes sold to the number of scones sold was 5:2, on Tuesday.

On Tuesday, the cafe sold 80 scones.

Let's assume that x number of cakes sold on Tuesday

According to the given condition, the proportion would be

5  cakes : 2 scones = x cakes : 80 scones

⇒ 5/2 = x /80

Apply the cross multiplication,

⇒ 5 × 80 = 2x

⇒ 400 = 2x

⇒ 2x = 400

⇒ x = 400/2

⇒ x = 200

Therefore, on Tuesday, the cafe sold 200 cakes.

Manuel incorrectly claimed that the surface area of the cylinder shown is about 190.0 in.2. Use a formula to find the surface area of the cylinder. Use 3.14 for π. What was his likely​ error?

Answers

The likely error in Manuel's claim is 552.61 in².

We have,

Height = 16 in

Diameter = 11 in

radius = 5.5 in

The surface area of a cylinder.

= 2πrh + 2πr²

= 2 x 3.14 x 5.5 x 16 + 2 x 3.14 x 5.5²

= 552.64 + 189.97

= 742.61 in²

Now,

Manuel incorrectly claimed that the surface area of the cylinder is

190.0 in²

Error = Correct surface area - Claimed surface area

Error = 742.61 in² - 190.0 in²

Error ≈ 552.61 in²

Thus,

The likely error in Manuel's claim is 552.61 in².

Help!!! What is the difference ? (x - 8)/(3x) - (3x)/(x ^ 2)

Answers

Answer:

Given that you're providing only a single term, asking for a difference doesn't make a lot of sense.  I assume you're asking to have the expression simplified?

If so, then it can be reduced to (x - 17) / 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

You can simplify by multiplying both terms each by a different ratio that equals one, but also gives the terms common denominator.  Multiplying the first one by x²/x² and the second by 3x/3x will do that for you.

After that you can group the terms into one fraction and simplify:

[tex]\frac{x - 8}{3x} - \frac{3x}{x^2} \\\\= \frac{x - 8}{3x}\times\frac{x^2}{x^2} - \frac{3x}{x^2} \times\frac{3x}{3x} \\\\= \frac{x^3 - 8x^2}{3x^3} - \frac{9x^2}{3x^3} \\\\= \frac{x^3 - 8x^2 - 9x^2}{3x^3} \\\\= \frac{x - 8 - 9}{3x}\\\\= \frac{x - 17}{3x}\\[/tex]

Answer:

The difference of [tex]\frac{x-8}{3x}-\frac{3x}{x^2}[/tex]  is [tex]\mathbf{\frac{x-17}{3x}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the difference: [tex]\frac{x-8}{3x}-\frac{3x}{x^2}[/tex]

Simplifying to find the difference:

[tex]\frac{x-8}{3x}-\frac{3x}{x^2}[/tex]

x is common in both 3x and x^2 so, we can cancel it out and we get:

[tex]=\frac{x-8}{3x}-\frac{3x}{x(x)}\\=\frac{x-8}{3x}-\frac{3}{x}[/tex]

Now, taking LCM of 3x and x we get 3x, We will multiply 3x with both terms and then solve we get:

[tex]=\frac{x-8-3(3)}{3x}\\=\frac{x-8-9}{3x}\\=\frac{x-17}{3x}[/tex]

It cannot be further simplified, so we get [tex]\frac{x-17}{3x}[/tex] as answer.

So, The difference of [tex]\frac{x-8}{3x}-\frac{3x}{x^2}[/tex]  is [tex]\mathbf{\frac{x-17}{3x}}[/tex]

A fish tank has 150 gallons of water and is being drained at a rate of 1/2 gallon each second. A fish tank has 120 gallons of water and is being filled at a rate of 1/4 gallon each second. After how many seconds will the ywo fish tanks have the same amount of water?

Answers

Answer:

40! Seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for After how many seconds will the two fish tanks have the same amount of water

First step

Based on the information given let the equation be :

150-1/2x=120+1/4x

Second step

Now let solve for x which means that x will be the number of second by multiplying both side by 4

4(150-1/2x)=4(120+1/4x)

=600-2x=480+x

Third step

Let Add 2x on both side

600=480+3x

Third step

Let Subtract 480 on both side

600-480=480-480+3x

120=3x

Last step is to divide both side by 3

120/3=3x/3

40=x

Hence:

x=40 seconds

Therefore After 40 seconds the two fish tanks will have the same amount of water.

Please answer this questions step by step​

Answers

Answer:

(a) When a = 4 and b = -5,  a² + b² - a·b = 61

(b) When a = 4 and b = -5,  a³·b + a·b² = -220

(c)  [tex]When \ a = 4 \ and \ b = -5, \ \dfrac{a - b}{a + b} + a -b = 0[/tex]

(d) When a = 4 and b = -5, (a + b)² - (a - b)² = 82

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates to evaluation of expressions, given the values of the variables, "a" and "b"

Where;

a = 4 and b = -5

(a) For a² + b² - a·b, we have;

a² + b² - a·b = 4² + (-5)² - 4 × (-5) = 16 + 25 + 20 = 41 + 20 = 61

(b) For a³·b + a·b² we have;

a³·b + a·b² = 4³·(-5) + 4·(-5)² = 64 × (-5) + 4 × 25 = -320 + 100 = -220

(c) For [tex]\dfrac{a - b}{a + b} + a -b[/tex], we have;

[tex]\dfrac{a - b}{a + b} + a -b = \dfrac{4 - (-5)}{4 + (-5)} + 4 - (-5) = \dfrac{4 + 5}{4 -5} + 4 + 5= \dfrac{9}{-1} + 4 + 5 = -9 + 4 + 5 = 0[/tex]

[tex]\therefore when \ a = 4 \ and \ b = -5, \ \dfrac{a - b}{a + b} + a -b = 0[/tex]

(d) For (a + b)² - (a - b)² we have;

(a + b)² - (a - b)² = (4 + (-5))² - (4 - (-5))² = (4 - 5)² - (4 + 5)² = (-1)² - 9² = 1 + 81 = 82

When a = 4 and b = -5, (a + b)² - (a - b)² = 82

Rewrite in slope-intercept form to find its slope:

5y = -x + 5y = -1/5x + 1It has slope of -1/5

Lines have different slopes: 5 and -1/5, therefore are not parallel

Answer:

The answer to the question provided is False.

Step-by-step explanation:

‣We are going to have to find the value of y for line b.

‣We are going to solve its equation.

[tex]x + 5y = 5 \\ \frac{- x \: \: \: \: \: = - x}{ \frac{5y}{5} = \frac{ - x + 5}{5} } \\ y = - \frac{1}{5} x+ 1[/tex]

‣So we have:

[tex]y = 5x - 6 \\ and \\ y = - \frac{1}{5} x + 1[/tex]

‣Remember that a slope is parallel to another slope if it has the same slope.

‣A slope is perpendicular to another slope if it has a negative reciprocal.

‣The slopes we have don't have the same slope, but they are perpendicular.
