The correct question is
<span>Javier is making a cake for a party. The recipe calls for 2 3/4 cups of flour, but he wants to triple the recipe. He guessed and put in 7 cups of flour. How many more cups of flour should he have used?

we know that
2 3/4 cups of flour------> (2*4+3)/4----> 11/4 cups
if he </span>wants to triple the recipe------> 3*(11/4)----> 33/4 ----> 8 1/4 cups required

8 1/4-7=1 1/4 cups

the answer is
1 1/4 cups

N(17+x)=34x−r<br> I need to solve for x
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The value of x is, x= \frac{17N+r}{34-N}

Explanation:

Given: N(17+x)=34x-r

Distributive Property states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two numbers, the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately.

If a\cdot(b+c) =a\cdot b + a\cdot c

Now, using distributive property on left hand side of the given expression as:

N\cdot 17+N\cdot x = 34x-r or 17N+Nx = 34x-r

Addition Property of equality state that we add the same number from both sides of an equation.

Add r to both sides of an equation:

17N+Nx+r=34x-r+r

Simplify:

17N+Nx+r=34x

Subtraction Property of equality state that we subtract the same number from both sides of an equation.

Subtract Nx from both sides of an equation;

17N+Nx+r-Nx=34x-Nx

Simplify:

17N+r=34x-Nx

or

17N+r=x(34-N)

Division Property of equality states that we divide the same number from both sides of an equation.

Divide by (34-N) to both sides of an equation;

\frac{17N+r}{34-N}= \frac{x(34-N)}{34-N}

On Simplify:

x= \frac{17N+r}{34-N}

Marco has drawn a line to represent the perpendicular cross-section of the triangular prism. Is he correct? Explain. triangular
evablogger [386]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Yes, the line should be perpendicular to one of the rectangular faces

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

A triangular prism lying on a rectangular base and a line drawn along the slant height

A perpendicular bisector should therefore be perpendicular with reference to the base of the triangular prism such that the cross section will be congruent to the triangular faces

Therefore Marco is correct and the correct option is yes, the line should be perpendicular to one of the rectangular faces (the face the prism is lying on).

Olive oil is a cooking Ingredient. The density of olive oil is 0.92 grams per cubic centimeter. An olive farmer wants to sell bo
sveticcg [70]

Answer: The volume of container that holds 460 grams of oil is 500 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Density of olive oil is 0.92 grams/(centimetre )^3

An olive farmer wants to sell bottles that contain  460 grams of oil.

Therefore

Mass of oil  = 460 grams

As we know

\text {Density}= \dfrac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}} \\\\\Rightarrow 0.92= \dfrac{460}{\text{Volume}} \\\\\Rightarrow \text{Volume}= \dfrac{460}{0.92} = 500

Hence, the volume of container that holds 460 grams of oil is 500 cm³.

Which equation is the inverse of y = 2x2 – 8?​
natita [175]

The inverse of the function is y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}

Explanation:

To find the inverse of the equation y=2x^{2} -8, we need to interchange the variables x and y for the variables y and x.

Thus, the equation becomes

x=2y^{2} -8

Now, we shall find the value of y.

Now, adding 8 to both sides of the equation, we have,

x+8=2y^{2}

Interchanging the sides,

2y^{2} =x+8

Dividing by 2 on both sides,

y^{2} =\frac{x+8}{2}

Taking square root on both sides,

y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}

Thus, the inverse of the function is y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}
