16 = 2/5
16 ÷ 2 = 2/5 ÷ 2/1
8 = 1/5
8 * 5 = 1/5 * 5
40 = 5/5
You started the party with 40 brownies

Let

x--------> total number of brownies made for the party

we know that

\frac{2}{5}x=16

Solve for x

\frac{2}{5}x=16\\ \\2x=5*16\\ \\2x=80\\ \\x=40\ brownies

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

40\ brownies

Which function has the domain x&gt;or= -11
iogann1982 [59]
I'm assuming this is multiple choice and you forgot to post the answers. I'll take a guess and say it probably looks something like this:
y = \sqrt{x + 11}
Because you can't take the square root of a negative number without getting an imaginary result, resulting in the function having a closed domain limit.

Helena needs 3.5 cups of flour per loaf of bread and 2.5 cups of flour per batch of muffins. She also needs 0.75 cup of sugar pe
Arlecino [84]
From the given data, we can generate two equations with two unknowns. 

We let x = number of loaves of bread
            y = number of batches of muffins

For the equation of the flour requirement:
17 = 3.5x + 2.5y

<span>For the equation of the sugar requirement:
</span>4.5 = 0.75x + 0.75y

We evaluate the solutions by manipulating one of the equations into terms of the other. We use the first equation.We write x in terms of y.

x = (4.5/0.75) - y

Substitute the third equation to the second equation.

17 = (3.5((4.5/0.75)-y)) + 2.5y

Evaluating y and x, we have,

y = 4 and x = 2

Thus, from the amounts she has in hand, she can make 4 loaves of bread and 2 batches of muffins.

Brad measured the length of an object as 2.1 * 10^4 cm. Which items might he have measured? Check all that apply.
Airida [17]

Answer with explanation:

Length of an object

                           =2.1\times 10^4\\\\=2.1 \times 10000\\\\=21,000cm

Other unit of measurement are Meter and Kilometer.

→1 Meter = 100 cm

→1 Kilometer= 1,000 meter=100,000 cm

→→21,000 cm = 210 meter = 0.21 Km

Option B:→ length of a city park, is most suitable measurement ,among all other measurement ,that Brad has done.

Second option Might be: Option A→ Length of a city block , may be That Brad has measured.

All other options are Inappropriate, as they require smaller scale or may be larger Scale ,that brad has used to measure

1.≡ Height of a person →→→240 cm (Maximum of 8 feet)

2.  ≡Distance across a city  →→→1 Km or 2 Km or 3 Km...

3.  ≡Height of an apple tree→→→1,000 cm (Maximum)  

4. ≡Width of a screen in a theater→→→2,100 cm (Maximum)

5 ≡depth of water in a swimming pool→→→225 cm

None of the five things described above appears, that brad has measured.
