John made 2 quarts of juice for a school party. He said that he made 2/4 cups of juice. Explain John's mistake.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The conversion from quarts to cups is:
1 cup = 1/4 quart
John made the mistake of using the conversion the other way around
Therefore, he thought that 1 quart was 1/4 cups instead.

This would result in John getting 2/4 cups rather than 8 cups, which should be the accepted value

Hope this helped ^_^

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

$44

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set a proportion.

$40 - 100%

$x - 10%

(40 x 10) : 100= $4.

We found out how much is that 10% BUT Steve payed this amount on top of $40. So, $40+$4= $44.

So select 44

Step-by-step explanation:

a park is in the shape of a rectangle 8 miles long and 6 miles wide. how much shorter is your walk if you walk diagonally across the park than along two sides of it?

Answers

you need to use this particular formula
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
this allows you to solve for the sides of a triangle which is what the diagonal would look like if u were to draw it. a equals the width of the park and b equals the height of the park.
6^2 + 8^2 = c^2
next you need to multiply 6 by the power of 2
36 + 8^2 = c^2
then the same for the 8
36 + 64 = c^2
then add the numbers together.
100 = c^2
after you add you get the square root of 100 which is 10. a square root is 2 numbers that multiply together to equal a particular number. square root is what you do to cancel out a power of 2
so if you walk diagonally you go 10 miles instead of 14 miles leaving a difference of a whole 4 miles.

What is the product of -9 and -15?

Answers

-9 * (-15) = 135
it's positive 135 because when you have negative time a negative it's always positive.

Answer:

Please mark me brainliest and I hope this helped!

135

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of something is what the outcome is when you multiply the numbers together. Since 9 and 15 are both negatives, they cancel each other out and become positives. Then we just multiply 9 and 15. That gives us 135.

Okay, using the pythagorean theorem, we can see that the side the both triangles share is... 3.2.

Using the pythagorean theorem again, we do

a^2+b^2=c^2

(3.2)²+a²=6²
10.24+a²=36
a²=25.76

√a²=√25.76
a=5.07543≈ 5.1

Hope this helps!

I believe the answer is 5.1
