A 2-pound bag of sugar contains 227 one-teaspoon servings and costs $2.49. A batch of muffins uses 1 2 cup of sugar. How many whole batches can you make if you use as much of the sugar as possible? What is the cost of sugar for each batch? (1 cup = 48 teaspoons; do not consider leftover sugar in the cost calculation.) You can make a total of batches at $ per batch.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 9 whole batches can be made

b) The cost of sugar for each batch = $0.26

Step-by-step explanation:

A 2-pound bag of sugar contains 227 one-teaspoon servings and costs $2.49.

This means:

2 pound bag of sugar = 227 teaspoon servings

2 pounds bag of sugar cost $2.49

We are told that:

A batch of muffins uses 1/2 cup of sugar.

a).How many whole batches can you make if you use as much of the sugar as possible?

(1 cup = 48 teaspoons)

Hence, A batch of muffins = 1/2 cups of sugar = 48 teaspoons of sugar ÷ 2

= 24 teaspoons of sugar

Hence:

24 teaspoons of sugar = 1 batch of muffins

227 teaspoons of sugar = x

Cross Multiply

24 × x = 1 × 227

x = 227/24

x = 9.4583333333 batches of muffins

We are asked to name the number of whole batches that can be made.

Therefore, 9 whole batches of muffins can be made

b) What is the cost of sugar for each batch? (do not consider leftover sugar in the cost calculation.) You can make a total of batches at $ per batch.

Since we are not to consider the leftover sugar in the cost calculation,

1 batch = 24 teaspoons of sugar

9 whole batches =

9 × 24 teaspoons = 216 teaspoons of sugar was used

The left over = 227 - 216 = 11 teaspoons of sugar is left

We know that:

227 teaspoons of sugar = $2.49

216 teaspoons of sugar = x

Cross Multiply

= 216 × $2.49/227

= $2.369339207

24 teaspoons of sugar = 1 batch of muffins

Therefore,

216 teaspoons of sugar =

$2.369339207

24 teaspoons of sugar =

24 × $2.369339207/ 216

= $0.2632599119

Approximately = $0.26

Therefore, the cost of sugar for each batch = $0.26

A race dog is initially running at 10 m/s but is slowing down. How fast is the dog moving when its kinetic energy has been reduced by half?
5.37 m/s
7.07 m/s
5.00 m/s
6.10 m/s

Answers

Answer: 7.07 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the quiz and that was the correct answer 5 is wrong

The speed of the dog at half of its kinetic energy is 7.07 m/s. The correct option is (B).

What is Proportionality?

When two quantities have some dependence in their values they can be said proportional to each other.

It can be of two types such as direct and indirect.

The direct proportionality means the values of both the quantities are increasing or decreasing at the same time while the indirect proportionality implies value of one quantity is increasing while the other is decreasing.

Given that,

The present speed of the dog is 10 m/s.

Suppose the mass of the dog be m kg.

Since, the kinetic energy of an object is given as K = 1/2mv².

As per the question, the following expression can be written,

Initial energy, K₁ = 1/2m × 10²

                           = 50m

Final energy, K₂ = K₁/2

                           = 50m/2

                           = 25m

Using the expression for kinetic energy,

1/2mv² = 25m

=> v² = 50

=> v = √50

       = 7.07

Hence, the speed of the dog when its kinetic energy is reduced to half is 7.07 m/s.

The probability that a truck will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin is about 75%. Suppose a random sample of five trucks are observed on this stretch of I-77. a. Find the mean of this probability distribution. Show the formula and your work. b. Interpret the mean in the context of the problem. c. Find the standard deviation of this probability distribution. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. d. Find the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding. e. Find the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding.

Answers

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of trucks that will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin.

The probability of X is, p = 0.75.

A random sample of n = 5 trucks are observed on this stretch of I-77.

The random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameters n = 5 and p = 0.75.

(a)

Compute the mean as follows:

[tex]\mu=n\times p=5\times 0.75=3.75[/tex]

The mean of this probability distribution is 3.75.

(b)

The mean of 3.75 implies that on average 3.75 trucks that will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin.

(c)

Compute the standard deviation as follows:

[tex]\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{5\times 0.75\times (1-0.75)}=0.968[/tex]

Thus, the standard deviation of this probability distribution is 0.97.

(d)

Compute the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding as follows:

[tex]P(X=3)={5\choose 3}(0.75)^{3}(1-0.75)^{5-3}\\\\=10\times 0.421875\times 0.0625\\\\=0.263671875\\\\\approx 0.2637[/tex]

Thus, the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding is 0.2637.

(e)

Compute the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding as follows:

[tex]P(X<3)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)\\\\=\sum\limits^{2}_{x=0}{{5\choose x}(0.75)^{x}(1-0.75)^{5-x}}\\\\=0.0009765625+0.0146484375+0.087890625\\\\=0.103515625\\\\\approx 0.1035[/tex]

Thus, the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding is 0.1035.

2x+b=w,for x i need to know what this answer is

Answers

Answer:

Let's take this step by step:

2x+b=w

2x+b-b=w-b (the basics to what we are trying to do is to get x alone so that it equals whatever is on the other side of the equation.)

2x=w-b(now that we got rid of the b on the left side of the equation by canceling it out, we have to subtract by b on the other side of the equation as well)

2x divided by 2=w-b/2 (For our final step x is being mulitplied by 2 so what we can do to get x alone is canel out the multiplication by dividing by 2. What this does is it leaves x alone showing us what x equals)

x=w-b/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle o represents the phase shift, determined by the initial conditions of the experiment or the position of the weight at t = 0. If the weight is at its maximum positive position (weight is above equilibrium) at t = 0, then o = 0. If the weight is at its maximum negative position (spring is stretched and weight is below equilibrium) at t = 0, then o = pi. If the weight is traveling in the negative direction and passing through equilibrium at t = 0, then o = pi/2. In the response box, describe the initial condition of our experiment; specifically, describe the position of the weight and the direction in which it was traveling.

Al saves pennies. He agreed to give 3/7 of his pennies to Bev if she would give 3/7 of what she got from Al to Carl and if Carl in turn would give 3/7 of what he got from Bev to Dani.​ Bev, Carl, and Dani agreed and Dani received pennies. How many pennies did Al have​ initially

Answers

Answer:

2744

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Al had x pennies initially.

Al agreed to give 3/7 of his pennies to Bev if she would give 3/7 of what she got from Al to Carl and if Carl in turn would give 3/7 of what he got from Bev to Dani.

So, as per the given condition,

The number of Pennies received by Ben from Al [tex]= \frac{3}{7} x[/tex]

The number of Pennies received by Carl from Bev

[tex]=\frac{3}{7} \times \frac{3}{7} x=\frac{9}{49}x[/tex]

The number of Pennies received by Dani from Carl

[tex]= \frac{3}{7}\times \frac{9}{49}x=\frac{27}{343} x[/tex]

Now, as Dani received 216 Pennies, so

[tex]\frac{27}{343} x =216[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac{216\times 343}{27}=2744.[/tex]

Hence, initially, Al had 2744 Pennies.
