STEP 1:
Find number of recipes needed for 20 servings (number of times we're multiplying original recipe)
= 20 servings ÷ 8 servings per recipe
= 20/8
= 2 4/8
reduce by 2
= 2 1/2 or 2.5 recipes

STEP 2:
Multiply recipes needed by amount of cheese used per recipe
= 2 1/2 * 12 ounces
convert fraction to improper fraction
= 5/2 * 12
multiply numerators
= (5*12)/2
= 60/2
= 30 ounces of cheese needed

ANSWER: She needs 30 ounces of cheese to make 20 servings.

Hope this helps! :)

ABCDEFGHIJ is a regular decagon. It rotates clockwise about its center to form the polygon A′B′C′D′E′F′G′H′I′J′. Match each angl

Lostsunrise [7]

A decagon has 10 sides.

It it is regular you can build 10 isosceles triangles from the center of the decagon to the 10 sides.

Each triangle has a common vertex where the angle of each triangle is 360° / 10 = 36°.

So each time that you rotate the decagon a multiple of 36° around the center you get an image that coincides with the original decagon.

If the letters are given clockwise:

- when you rotate 36° counter clockwise, the point A' (the image of A) will coincide with the point J.

- when you rotate 72° (2 times 36°) counter clockwise, the point A' will land on I.

- when you rotate 108° (3 times 36°) counter clockwise, the point A' will land on H.

- when you rotate 144° (4 times 36°) counter clockwise, the point A' will land on G.

- when you rotate 180° (5 times 36°) counter clockwise, the point A' will land on I.

- when you rotate 216° (6 times 36°) counter clockwise, the point A' will land on E.

- whn you rotate 252° (7 times 36°) counterclockwise, the point A' will coincide with D.

Add other 36° each time and A' will coincide successively with C, B and the same A.

Use exponential form to evaluate log8(2)

maks197457 [2]

<span>Logarithm form is another way to express a number in exponential (exp.) form. log 8 (2) is the same as 8 (x) = 2 or in words, eight with exp. x equals two. If we take that equation and cube both sides, or raise each side to the power of 3, [8 (x)] with exp. 3 = 2 with exp. 3. This simplifies to 8 (3x) = 8. By definition, 8 is the same as 8 with exp. 1. So the equation is now 8 (3x) = 8 (1). This means 3x = 1. We can simplify to x = 1/3.</span>

A theatre has the capacity to seat people across two levels, the Circle and

andriy [413]

Answer: $76.19\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is: " A theatre has the capacity to seat people across two levels, the Circle, and the stalls. The ratio of the number of seats in the circle to a number of seats in the stalls is 2:5. Last Friday, the audience occupied all the 528 seats in the circle and $\frac{2}{3}$ of the seats in the stalls. What is the percentage of occupancy of the theatre last Friday?"</h3>

Let be "s" the total number of seats in the Stalls.

The problem says that the ratio of the number of seats in the Circle to the number of seats in the Stalls is $2:5$ .

Since the number of seats that were occupied last Friday was 528 seats, we can set up the following proportion:

$\frac{2}{5}=\frac{528}{s}$

Solving for "s", we get:

$s*\frac{2}{5}=528\\\\s=528*\frac{5}{2}\\\\s=1,320$

So the sum of the number of seats in the Circle and the number of seats in the Stalls, is:

$Total=1,320\ seats+528\ seats=1,848\ seats$

We know that $\frac{2}{3}$ of the seats in the Stalls were occupied. Then, the number of seat in the Stalls that were occupied is:

$(1,320)(\frac{2}{3})=880$

Therefore, the total number of seats that were occupied las Friday is:

$Total\ occupied=880\ seats+528\ seats=1,408\ seats$

Knowing this, we can set up the following proportion, where "p" is the the percentage of occupancy of the theatre last Friday:

$\frac{100}{1,848}=\frac{p}{1,408}$

Solving for "p", we get:

$(1,408)(\frac{100}{1,848})=p\\\\p=76.19\%$

Eli invested $ 330 $330 in an account in the year 1999, and the value has been growing exponentially at a constant rate. The val

Cloud [144]

Answer:

The value of the account in the year 2009 will be $682.

Step-by-step explanation:

The acount's balance, in t years after 1999, can be modeled by the following equation.

$A(t) = Pe^{rt}$

In which A(t) is the amount after t years, P is the initial money deposited, and r is the rate of interest.

$330 in an account in the year 1999

This means that $P = 330$

$590 in the year 2007

2007 is 8 years after 1999, so P(8) = 590.

We use this to find r.

$A(t) = Pe^{rt}$

$590 = 330e^{8r}$

$e^{8r} = \frac{590}{330}$

$e^{8r} = 1.79$

Applying ln to both sides:

$\ln{e^{8r}} = \ln{1.79}$

$8r = \ln{1.79}$

$r = \frac{\ln{1.79}}{8}$

$r = 0.0726$

Determine the value of the account, to the nearest dollar, in the year 2009.

2009 is 10 years after 1999, so this is A(10).

$A(t) = 330e^{0.0726t}$

$A(10) = 330e^{0.0726*10} = 682$

The value of the account in the year 2009 will be $682.
