Fifteen dozen eggs were needed for baking four wedding cakes. The first cake
needed one dozen eggs, and each successive cake needed twice as many eggs as the
previous cake. How many eggs were used to make the fourth cake?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

96 eggs

Step-by-step explanation:

A dozen is equal to 12 eggs, so 15 dozen is equal to 180 eggs

(Because 15*12 = 180)

We already know how many eggs are required for the 1st cake: 12 eggs.

Then it says "each successive cake needs twice as many eggs as the previos cake".

(Successive means the cake directly after the previous cake)

Here's how we find the number of eggs needed for the 2nd cake:

The 1st cake needed 12 eggs, and because the 2nd cake is directly after the 1st cake, we are going to need two times the amount of 12 eggs.

This equation represents the above scenario:

12*2 = 24

So we need 24 eggs for the 2nd cake.

Now we repeat this process for the 3rd cake, finding twice the amount of eggs from the 2nd cake to find the amount of eggs needed for the 3rd cake:

24*2 = 48

And we repeat it once more for the 4th cake, using the eggs from the 3rd cake:

48*2 = 96

So here's the list of how many eggs are required for each of the cakes:

1st cake: 12

2nd cake: 24

3rd cake: 48

4th cake: 96

If you add all the eggs from each of the cakes, you will get 180, which is the number of eggs needed for all four cakes. So our answer is correct.

Hope this helps (●'◡'●)

(a). The fraction of pocket money left is 3/4

(b). If he had R40 pocket money, he spend R10.

What is the Ratio?

The ratio is defined as a relationship between two quantities, it is expressed one divided by the other.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by the subtract, divide, and multiply built-in functions.

The operator that perform arithmetic operation are called arithmetic operators .

Operators which let do basic mathematical calculation

+ Addition operation : Adds values on either side of the operator.

For example 4 + 2 = 6

- Subtraction operation : Subtracts right hand operand from left hand operand.

for example 4 -2 = 2

* Multiplication operation : Multiplies values on either side of the operator

For example 4*2 = 8

Mandla spent one-quarter of his pocket money on sweets

Let x be the total amount of pocket money Mandla had originally

Solution of (a).

⇒ x - (1/4)x

⇒ (3/4)x

The fraction of pocket money left = 3/4

Solution of (b).

1/4 of pocket money

⇒ (1/4)x

Find mABC.
A. 102°
B. 54°
C. 14°
D. 78°

Answers

By the supplementary angles theorem, we know that both of the angles add up to equal 180°, so:

(4x + 22) + (8x - 10) = 180

12x + 12 = 180

12x = 168

x = 14

Now you just have to plug in x into the value for ∠ABC:

∠ABC = 4x + 22

∠ABC = 4(14) + 22

∠ABC = 46 + 22

∠ABC = 68°

Answer:

D = 78

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles form a straight line so they add to 180

4x+22 + 8x-10 = 180

Combine like terms

12x +12 =180

Subtract 12 from each side

12x+12-12 = 180-12

12x = 168

Divide by 12

12x/12 =168/12

x=14

We want to find ABC

4x+22 = 4*14+22 = 56+22 = 78

Answers

Answer:

We Reject the Null, H0 and conclude that the volume of juice filled by old machine varies more than volume filled by new machine

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Old machine: 8.2, 8.0, 7.9, 7.9, 8.5, 7.9, 8.1,8.1, 8.2, 7.9

Sample size, n = 10

Using calculator :

s1² = 0.37889.

New machine: 8.0, 8.1, 8.0, 8.1, 7.9, 8.0, 7.9, 8.0, 8.1

Sample size, n = 9

s2² = 0.006111

Hypothesis :

H0 : s1² = s2²

H1 : s1² > s2²

New machine :

s2² = 0.006111 ; n = 9

Using the Ftest :

Ftest statistic = larger sample variance / smaller sample variance

Ftest statistic = 0.37889 / 0.006111

Ftest statistic = 62.0

Decision region :

Reject H0 ; If Test statistic > Critical value

The FCritical value at 0.05

DFnumerator = 10 - 1 = 9

DFdenominator = 9 - 1 = 8

Fcritical(0.05, 9, 8) = 3.388

Since 62 > 3.388 ; Reject H0 and conclude that volume filled by old machine varies more than volume filled by new machine

Your small business spent $40 on food and another $60 on materials. Then, you sold an item for $120, but you had to pay a $90 service fee. Finally, you were given a refund from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for $70. If the expression describing these transactions is the following, then how does it evaluate?

Answers

Answer:

40$+60$=100$ spent

120$sold

90$ payed

70$ refund

120 (sold) -90 (payed) =30+70 (refund) =100$ (profit)

Step-by-step explanation:

You spent 100$

And you sold and got 120 but you payed 90$ from 120$ money left is 30$

Then they refunded you (pay back the money (give you the money ))

So the money that your left with is 30$ and the refund money is 70$

So add the money that your left with is gives you 100$

A parallelogram is made up of a rectangle with a base of 12 centimeters (cm) and a height of 5 cm, and two triangles, each with a base of 2 cm and height of 5 cm. Jeremy calculates the area of the parallelogram by multiplying the base and height of the rectangle to get 60 cm2.

Select the option that correctly answers both questions.

No, he forgot to multiply by 12 when calculating the area of the rectangle.

Yes, he correctly calculated the area of the parallelogram as b⋅h.

No, he forgot to add the area of the triangles to the area of the rectangle.

Yes, he correctly calculated the area of the parallelogram as 12bh.

Answers

No, he forgot to add the area of the triangles to the area of the rectangle.

It is said that Jeremy thought he solved for the area of the whole parallelogram correctly by multiplying the base and height of the rectangle, which is just a part of the whole parallelogram.

Jeremy’s answer is incomplete, he only calculated the area of the triangle as the answer.

This is because one way of finding an area of a parallelogram is dividing the shape into a rectangle with a triangle on each side.

The real area of the parallelogram is 70 cm^2
(with areas of each triangles added)

With that being said, the formula of a parallelogram that is said is:
A = bh
Which means a height perpendicular to the base of the whole paralleogram.
