<span>In a standard batch, you have 11 pounds of flour, 9 pounds of eggs, 3 pounds of yeast and 2 of salt. This means the bread dough will weigh 11+9+3+2=25 pounds. The ratio of yeast to dough is then 3:25. To get 20 pounds of dough, we need x amount of yeast. Since its a ratio, 3/25 = x/20. We then solve for x, so x = 20*(3/25) = 12/5 = 2.4 pounds of yeast.</span>

A parallelogram has a length of 6 centimeters and a width of 4.5 centimeters. This parallelogram is dilated by a scale factor of
Arada [10]
Scale factor is given by:
(length of larger figure)/(length of smaller figure)=(width of larger figure)/(width of the smaller figure)=3.4
The length of the larger figure will be given by:
length=(scale factor)*(length of smaller figure)
=3.4*6=20.4 cm
width of the larger figure will be given by:
width=(scale factor)*(width of smaller figure)
=3.4*4.5
=15.3 cm
Therefore the dimension of the new parallelogram will be 20.4 cm by 15.3 cm

What is the present value of a $50,000 decreasing perpetuity beginning in one year if the discount rate is 7% and the payments d
Trava [24]

Answer:

Present Value = $1666666.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Present Value of a Growing Perpuity is calculated using the following formula

PV =D/(r - g)

Where D = Dividend

r = Discount Rate

g = Growth rate

D = $50,000

r = 7%

r = 7/100

r = 0.07

g = 4%

g = 4/100

g = 0.04

PV = D/(r-g)

Becomes

PV = $50,000/(0.07-0.04)

PV = $50,000/0.03

PV = $1,666,666.67

So the Present Value of the perpuity is $1,666,666.67

A 20-inch diameter bicycle tire rotates 200 times.
fenix001 [56]

Answer: B)1,047 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to calculate the circumference of the tire:

Circumference(C): π x diameter

C = π (20) = 62.83 inches.

Since 1 foot is equal to 12 inches.

62.83 ÷ 12 = 5.23 feet

Finally we have to multiply the result by 200:

5.23 x 200 = 1,047 feet

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

O is the centre of the circle and ABC and EDC are tangents to the circle. Find the size of angle BCD. You must give reasons in y
Simora [160]

Answer:

mBCD = 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle mBFD inscribes the arc mBD, so we have that:

mBFD = mBD/2

76 = mBD/2

mBD = 152°

The angle mBOD is a central angle related to the arc mBD, so we have that:

mBOD = mBD = 152°

In the quadrilateral BODC, the sum of internal angles needs to be equal to 360° (property of all convex quadrilaterals). The angles mCBO and mCDO are right angles, because EDC and ABC are tangents to the circle.

So, we have that:

mBOD + mCDO + mBCD + mCBO = 360

152 + 90 + mBCD + 90 = 360

mBCD = 360 - 90 - 90 - 152

mBCD = 28°
