a) The ratio of a jar of handmade cream to coconut butter is 3:1.
b) The ratio of beeswax to coconut butter is 3 to 1.
c) The ratio of beeswax to coconut butter is 1 to 3.
d) The ratio of coconut butter to beeswax is 1 to 3.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c) The ratio of beeswax to coconut butter is 1 to 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio can be defined as a mathematical expression used for the comparison of two (2) values or quantities.

Basically, a ratio gives the relationship between two values or quantities by comparing them together. It is typically written in the form; x : y

In this scenario, to make a base for a jar of handmade cream, Barbara needs 3 tablespoons of coconut butter for every cup of beeswax. The statement which is true about this scenario is that, the ratio of beeswax to coconut butter is 1 to 3.

Given the following data;

Amount of coconut butter (X) = 3 tsp

Amount of beeswax (Y) = 1 cup

The ratio of beeswax to coconut butter is;

Y : X = 1 : 3

Hence, the ratio of beeswax to coconut butter is 1 to 3.

- 69." What is Peter's number?

Answers

Answer:

Peter's number is 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you subtratct 13 from 36, you get 23.

If you multiply that times -3, you get -69.

(The way I got 23 was by dividing -69 and -3)

So, therefore, the final answer is [tex]8[/tex].

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

My answer is 8!!!

If x is equal to 4 then 5x4=20 because if there is no sign then that means that you have to multiply, then you add 20 and 12 which is equal to 32, And then you simplify 4 which equals 8, or you can think of dividing 32 and 4 which is also 8.

Determine the constant of variation for the direct variation given.
R varies directly with S. When S is 16, R is 80.
1/5

16

Answers

Answer:

The constant of variation is k=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

A direct proportion is a relation between variables where their ratio is a constant value. This means that if y and x are proportional, then:

[tex]y=k\cdot x[/tex]

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

We know R varies directly with S. Their relationship is:

[tex]R=k\cdot S[/tex]

We also have when S=16, R=80. Thus:

[tex]80=k\cdot 16[/tex]

Solving for k:

[tex]k=80/16=5[/tex]

The constant of variation is k=5

Which equation has solution x = -3?


A) 2x - 7 = -1
B) 3x + 8 = 1
C) 1/2x+8=10
D) 1/2(2x-6)=-6

Answers

Answer:

D) 1/2(2x-6)=-6 = x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A. x = 3

B. x = 7/3

C. x = 4

D. x = -3

Solve for x:

(2 x - 6)/2 = -6

Hint: | Multiply both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Multiply both sides of (2 x - 6)/2 = -6 by 2:

(2 (2 x - 6))/2 = -6×2

Hint: | Cancel common terms in the numerator and denominator of (2 (2 x - 6))/2.

(2 (2 x - 6))/2 = 2/2×(2 x - 6) = 2 x - 6:

2 x - 6 = -6×2

Hint: | Multiply 2 and -6 together.

2 (-6) = -12:

2 x - 6 = -12

Hint: | Isolate terms with x to the left hand side.

Add 6 to both sides:

2 x + (6 - 6) = 6 - 12

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

6 - 6 = 0:

2 x = 6 - 12

Hint: | Evaluate 6 - 12.

6 - 12 = -6:

2 x = -6

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides of 2 x = -6 by 2:

(2 x)/2 = (-6)/2

Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.

2/2 = 1:

x = (-6)/2

Hint: | Reduce (-6)/2 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of -6 and 2.

The gcd of -6 and 2 is 2, so (-6)/2 = (2 (-3))/(2×1) = 2/2×-3 = -3:

 A gold mine has two​ elevators, one for equipment and another for the miners. The equipment elevator descends 4 feet per second. The elevator for the miners descends 13 feet per second. One​ day, the equipment elevator begins to descend. After 33 ​seconds, the elevator for the miners begins to descend. What is the position of each elevator relative to the surface after another 12 ​seconds? At that​ time, which elevator is​ deeper?

Answers

Answer:

The position of the equipment elevator is 180 feet deep

The position of the miner's elevator is 156 feet deep

The equipment elevator is deeper.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

For the equipment elevator

Velocity (v) = 4 feet/second

and for the miner's elevator,

Velocity (v) = 13 feet/second

To determine the position of each elevator, the position can be related to the distance covered.

From

Velocity = Distance / Time

Distance = Velocity × Time

Now, from the question,

The equipment elevator first descends for 33 seconds, after which the miner's elevator then start to descend both elevators descend for another 12 seconds. That is, the equipment elevator descends for a total of (33+12) seconds while the miner's elevator descends for 12 seconds.

Now, for the equipment elevator

Velocity = 4 feet/second

Time = (33 + 12 seconds) = 45 seconds

From

Distance = Velocity × Time

Distance = 4 × 45

Distance = 180 feet

The position of the equipment elevator is 180 feet deep

For the miner's elevator,

Velocity = 13 feet/second

Time = 12 seconds

Also, from

Distance = Velocity × Time

Distance = 13 × 12

Distance = 156 feet

The position of the miner's elevator is 156 feet deep

Hence, the equipment elevator is deeper.

The difference of twice a number and 3 is at most -21

Answers

Answer:

The equation: 2n - 3 ≤ -21

The answer to the equation: n ≤ 9

Step-by-step explanation:

How to get the equation:

The difference of symbolizes subtraction. Because we are subtracting twice a number and 3, the first part of the equation can be written as 2n - 3. The n symbolizes the number.

is at most symbolizes a less than or equal to sign. That sign is ≤. And what is it less than or equal to? -21.

Now are equation is 2n - 3 ≤ -21

How to solve it:

2n - 3 ≤ -21

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

2n ≤ 18

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

n ≤ 9

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-2, -3) and is
parallel to the line 4x - y = 12

Answers

Answer: y = 4x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the second line.

4x - y = 12

-y = -4x + 12

y = 4x - 12

slope = 4

Therefore, the slope of the second line must also be 4.

Use point-slope form to write the equation.

y + 3 = 4(x + 2)

y = 4x + 5

Step 1-

Take x/2≥-4. Now multiply both sides by 2 to isolate the x variable. Multiplying x/2 by 2 removes the denominator.

Step 2-

Since we are multiplying both sides by 2, we also have to multiply -4 by 2. We get -8
