Baxter has a recipe for salad dressing that calls for 2/3 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup vinegar, and 4/3 cup puréed avocado. How much vinegar does baxter need to make 6 cups of dressing?
1 cup of dressing = 1/4 cup vinegar
6 cups of dressing = x
Cross Multiply
1 × x = 6 × 1/4
x = 6/4
x = 1 1/2 cups of vinegar
A bookshop had 650 copies of a book for sale. The books were marked at 75 per copy in order to make a profit of 30%. A bookseller bought 300 copies at 5% discount. If the remaining copies sold at 75 each, calculate the percentage profit of the bookshop will make on the whole
Answer:
The percentage profit of the bookshop will make on the whole is 27%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The following are given in the question:
Copies of books for sale = 650
Selling price per copy = 75
Copies sold at 5% discount = 300
Discount rate = 5%, or 0.05
Percentage profit per copy = 30%, or 0.30
To calculate cost per copy, the following formula is used:
Percentage profit per copy = (Selling price per copy – Cost per copy) / Cost per copy …….. (1)
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for Cost per copy, we have:
30% = (75 - Cost per copy) / Cost per copy
0.30 * Cost per copy = 75 - Cost per copy
(0.30 * Cost per copy) + Cost per copy = 75
1.30 * Cost per copy = 75
Cost per copy = 75 / 1.30
Cost per copy = 57.6923076923077
Therefore, we have:
Total cost = Copies of books for sale * Cost per copy = 650 * 57.6923076923077 = 37,500
Selling price at 5% discount = 75 * (100% - Discount rate) = 75 * (100% - 5%) = 75 * 95% = 71.25
Revenue from sales at selling price at 5% discount = Selling price at 5% discount * Number of sales at 5% discount = 71.25 * 300 = 21,375
Revenue from the remaining copies sold at 75 per copy = (Copies of books for sale - 300) * 75 = (650 - 300) * 75 = 350 * 75 = 26,250
Total revenue = Revenue from sales at selling price at 5% discount + Revenue from sales at 75 per copy = 21,375 + 26,250 = 47,625
Total profit = Total revenue - Total cost = 47,625 - 37,500 = 10,125
To calculate the percentage profit of the bookshop will make on the whole, the following formula is used:
Percentage profit on the whole = (Total profit / Total cost) * 100 ................ (2)
Substituting the relevant values form above into equation (2), we have:
Percentage profit on the whole = (10,125 / 37,500) * 100
Percentage profit on the whole = 0.27 * 100
Percentage profit on the whole = 27%
Therefore, the percentage profit of the bookshop will make on the whole is 27%.

This hydraulic system should produce an output force of 50,000 newtons. How large an area should the output piston have?
Complete question is;
In a hydraulic system, a 100-newton force is applied to a small piston with an area of 0.0020 m².
This hydraulic system should produce an output force of 50,000 newtons. How large an area should the output piston have?
Answer:
A2 = 1 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pascal's Law which is here applied to mechanical advantage of a hydraulic piston, we can find the area of the large piston from;
F1/A1 = F2/A2
We are given;
Force of small piston: F1 = 100 N
Area of small piston; A1 = 0.0020 m²
Force of small piston: F2 = 50000 N
Thus;
Making A2 the subject, we have;
A2 = (F2/F1)A1
A2 = (50000/100) × 0.0020
A2 = 1 m²

Step-by-step explanation:
Given triangle DOG is congruent to triangle CAT, which reason could you use to prove that angle G is congruent to angle T?
Answer:
The correct option is;
d) CPCTC
Step-by-step explanation:
The phrase Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent with the acronym CPCTC, is used as valid reasoning in the provision of a proof, after the existence of congruency between two triangles has been proven
Given that the triangles ΔDOG and ΔCAT have been proven congruent, we have that the corresponding vertices are;
Vertex D corresponds to vertex C
Vertex O corresponds to vertex A
Vertex G corresponds to vertex T
Therefore, given that ΔDOG ≅ ΔCAT, we have;
∠D ≅ ∠C by CPCTC
∠O ≅ ∠A by CPCTC
∠G ≅ ∠T by CPCTC.
slope = 2/5 and passes through (-3, 1)
Answer:
y = 2/5x + 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = 2/5(x - (-3))
y - 1 = 2/5(x + 3)
y - 1 = 2/5x + 6/5
y = 2/5x + 6/5 - 5/5 (since 1 equals to 1/1, 2/2, 3/3, etc.)
y = 2/5x + 1/5

Answer:
a = 5√7
Step-by-step explanation:
Sides of a right triangle follow the Pythagoras theorem,
By Pythagoras theorem,
(AB)² = (BC)² + (AC)²
c² = a² + b²
If b = 9 and c = 16,
(16)² = a² + 9²
256 = a² + 81
a² = 256 - 81
a = √175
a = 5√7
Therefore, measure of third side a = 5√7

Since we have two points on the line, we can easily calculate the slope.
Point 1 = (-2, 5)
Point 2 = (2, 0)
[tex]m=\frac{rise}{run}\\m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} } \\m=\frac{0-5}{2-(-2)} \\m=\frac{-5}{4}[/tex]
Rearrange the equation y = 4x – 5 to find x in terms of y.
We have:
y = 4x - 5
Lets add 5 in each member:
y + 5 = 4x - 5 + 5
y + 5 = 4x
Divide the entire equation by 4:
[tex]\dfrac{y+5}{4} = \dfrac{4x}{4}\\\\\dfrac{y+5}{4} = x\\\\x = \dfrac{y+5}{4}\\\\\boxed{x = \dfrac{y}{4} + \dfrac{5}{4}}[/tex]

What is the equation of the line through the origin and (7, 2)?
Answer:
Equation of line passing through origin and (7,2) is: [tex]y = \frac{7}{2}x[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of equation of line is given by:
[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]
When a line passes through origin it has no y-intercept so the equation will become
[tex]y = mx[/tex]
Slope is given by the formula
[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Here,
(x1,y1) = (0,0)

Triangles ACD and BCD are isosceles. Angle BAC has a measure of 17 degrees and angle BDC has a measure of 52 degrees. The measure of angle ABD is __ degrees
A-163
B-142
C-76
D-159
E-141
Answer:
D-159
Step-by-step explanation:
The required measure of angle ABD is 142°. Option B is correct.
Given that,
Triangles ACD and BCD are isosceles. Angle BAC has a measure of 17 degrees and angle BDC has a measure of 52 degrees.
The triangle is a geometric shape that includes 3 sides and the sum of the interior angle should not greater than 180°
Here,
According to the question,
ΔBDC,
∠BDC + ∠BCD + ∠DBC = 180
52 + 52 + ∠DBC = 180
∠DBC = 180 - 104
∠DBC = 76°
Now,
∠ABD = 360 - ∠DBC / 2
∠ABD = [360 - 76] / 2
∠ABD = 284/2
∠ABD = 142°
Thus, the required measure of angle ABD is 142°. Option B is correct.

Answer:
a) Equation is: 3x+4=22
b) Solving the equation we get the number x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Equation
Let the number be x.
Translating the statement into mathematical form:
Multiply the number with 3 i.e 3x
Add four i.e 3x+4
I get twenty two means: 3x+4=22
So, Equation is: 3x+4=22
b) Solve the equation:
3x+4=22
subtracting 4 on both sides
[tex]3x+4=22\\3x+4-4=22-4\\3x=18[/tex]
Divide both sides by 3
[tex]\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{18}{3}\\x=6[/tex]
So, the number x = 6

If "a" is a solution to the equation 5 + 6a
= 7a-3, then what is the value of 2a?
Answer:
The value of 2a will be: 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation
[tex]5 + 6a = 7a-3[/tex]
subtract 5 from both sides
[tex]5+6a-5=7a-3-5[/tex]
[tex]6a=7a-8[/tex]
[tex]-a=-8[/tex]
Divide both sides by -1
[tex]\frac{-a}{-1}=\frac{-8}{-1}[/tex]
[tex]a=8[/tex]
As we know that [tex]a=8[/tex] is the solution to the equation.
Hence, the value of 2a will be:
[tex]2a = 2(8)[/tex] ∵ [tex]a=8[/tex]
[tex]= 16[/tex]
Therefore, the value of 2a will be: 16
