Aaron wants to make as many gluten-free, low-carb cupcakes as he can for a bake sale. His recipe for 12 such cupcakes requires ⅜ of a cup of cocoa. Assuming Aaron has enough of the remaining ingredients, which of the following is closest to the number of cupcakes that he could make if he has 2 cups of cocoa? A)10 B)30 C)60 D)100

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I believe it is C

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I decided to use the proportion method. (Before I use this method, let's change [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] into a decimal. So, that will be 0.375.

We know that we can cross multiply in a proportion

[tex]\frac{0.375 cups}{12 cupcakes} = \frac{2cups}{x}[/tex]

0.375x = 24

x = 64

round to tens

60

Answer 2

The number of cupcakes that he could make if he has 2 cups of cocoa is C) 60.

What is proportion?

A proportion is an equation in which two ratios are set equal to each other.

Now, it is given that,

12 such cupcakes requires ⅜ of a cup of cocoa

So ratio, cup of cocoa : cupcakes = ⅜ : 12

⇒  cup of cocoa / cupcakes = ⅜ / 12

Now, let x be  the number of cupcakes that he could make if he has 2 cups of cocoa

So ratio,cups of cocoa : number of cupcakes = 2 : x

Hence,By proportionality we get,

cup of cocoa : cupcakes = cup of cocoa : cupcakes

⅜ : 12 = 2 : x

⅜ / 12 = 2 / x

⇒ 0.375/12 = 2 / x

⇒ x = (2x12)/0.375

⇒ x = 24/0.375

⇒ x = 64

hence it is closest  to the number 60.

So,The number of cupcakes that he could make if he has 2 cups of cocoa is C) 60.

A bag of flour contains ten cups of flour. In a cookie recipe, one batch requires 1/4 cup of flour. How many batches of cookies can you make with a whole bag of flour? *

Answers

You would be able to make 40 batches because 4 batches would equal one. So 4x10 would equal 40.

Hope this helped! :))

Division is one of the four fundamental arithmetic operations. The number of batches of cookies to make from a bag of flour is 40.

What is Division?

Division is one of the four fundamental arithmetic operations, which tells us how the numbers are combined to form a new one.

Given that a bag of flour contains ten cups of flour. And one batch requires 1/4 cup of flour. Therefore, we can write,

The number of cups of flour in a bag = 10 cups of flour

The number of cups required to make one batch of cookies = 1/4 cup of flour

The number of batches of cookies can be made with a  bag of flour is,

Number of Batches = 10 cups of flour / 1/4 cup of flour per batch

                                = 40 batches

Thus, the number of batches of cookies to make from a bag of flour is 40.

Intercepts in terms of graphing are considered to be points at which a function crosses an axis.  In the standard x and y graph (the Cartesian coordinate grid), one would find the intercepts by simply plugging in the value of 0 for either the x or the y to find either the y or x intercept respectively.  For example, to find the y-intercept, you want to find (0,y) and to find the x-intercept, you want to find (x,0).

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be used to find q is 0.05(84 - q) + 0.25q = 17.80 option (D) 0.05(84 - q) + 0.25q = 17.80 is correct.

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have:

Alex has 84 quarters and nickels worth a total of $17.80.

As we know,

1 nickel = 5 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

1 quarter = 25 cents

1 dollar = 100 cents

The amount that Alex = 84 quarters + $17.80

q = 84 quarters + $17.80

q is the number of quarters Alex has.

Remaining nickel value = 84 - q

In cents:

= 0.05(84 - q)

q in cents:

= 0.25q

0.05(84 - q) + 0.25q = 17.80

Thus, the equation can be used to find q is 0.05(84 - q) + 0.25q = 17.80 option (D) 0.05(84 - q) + 0.25q = 17.80 is correct.

From (2) we can make y the subject of the relation

y = 0.75+3.25x -------(3)

Input 0.75+3.25x into y in (1)

-4.5x -2(0.75+3.25x) = -12.5

-4.5x -1.5- 6.5x = -12.5

-4.5x -6.5x -1.5 = -12.5

-11x = -12.5 +1.5

-11x = -11

In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match.Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by natureby a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble.In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar.
