How many cups of sorbet are used in 8 cups of punch?

1 answer:

4 0

Given that 8 cups equals 100% of this punch, we need to figure out how many coups does 15% of sorbet make. This is how we do this:
8 (cups) : 100% (the entire amount of punch) = x (the number of sorbet cups) : 15% (the amount of sorbet used)
So:
x : 15 = 8 : 100
100x = 15 * 8
100x = 120
x = 1.2
The answer is 1.2 cups of sorbet were used in this punch.

The weight, y, in pounds, of kittens was tracked for the first 8 weeks after birth where t represents the number of weeks after

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The mentioned relationship for the weight, in pounds, of the kitten with respect to time, in weeks, is

$\hat y =1.7 +1.48t$

Weight of the kitten after 10 weeks

$\hat y =1.7 +1.48\times 10$

$\hat y =16.5$ pounds

This modeled equation is based on the observation of the early age of a kitten where the kitten is in its growth period, but in the early stage the growth rate in the weight of the kitten was the same but the growth of any living beings continues till the adult stage. So, after some time, in real life situation, this weekly change in weight will become zero, So, this model is not suitable to measure the weight of the kitten over the larger time period.

Here, t= 10 weeks is nearby the observed time period, so the linearly modeled equation can be used to predict the weight.

Hence, the weight of the kitten after 10 weeks is 16.5 pounds.

If you add $15 + $27 because that's how much it costs for each student, you get $42. Then you divide $714 by $42, you get 17 and that's how many students are in the class this month.
