It would be nice if I get some help with these 2 thingsThing 1.
A. EXPLAIN how to set up a proportion and then

B. solve the problem below.


A recipe calls for 9 tablespoons of milk for every 21 cups of flour. If the chef puts in 168 cups of flour, how many tablespoons of milk must the chef add?

thing 2.
solve the proportion 24/36 = 8/y

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Thing 1
A. You can set up a proportion by dividing how much of something there is by the original. (This probably doesn't make much sense but I hope you can understand it from the answer to the problem below!)
B.First, do 168/21 to see how many more times he put flour in. 
168/21= 8
Then to find out the milk in the same proportion do the number (in this case 8) times the original of the thing you wan to find out. 
8x9=72
72 tablespoons of milk are needed for 168 cups of flour in this adapted recipe.

Thing 2
24/36=8y
To solve any equation, you want to have letters on one side and numbers on the other, so...
-8 from both sides...
(24/36)-8=y
24/36=0.6 
y=(0.6-8)
y=-7.4

Hope this helps :)

Pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c²
a = long leg
b = short leg
c = hypotenuse

graph can form a right triangle:
JK: a = 7 - 3 = 4 ; b = 5 - 3 = 2 
⇒ 4² + 2² = c² ⇒ 16 + 4 = 20 ; c = √20 = 4.47 or 4.5 units

VW: a = 6 - (-2) = 6 + 2 = 8 ; b = -3 - (+4) = 7
⇒ 8² + 7² = c² ⇒ 64 + 49 = 113 ; c = √113 = 10.63 units

EG: a = 7 - (-2) = 7 + 2 = 9 ; b = 9 - 1 = 8
⇒ 9² + 8² = c² ⇒ 81 + 64 =  145 ; c = √145 = 12.04 units

EG: a = -1 - 6 = 7 ; b = 2 - (-2) = 2 + 2 = 4
⇒ 7² + 4² = c² ⇒ 49 + 16 = 65 ; c = √65 = 8.06 units

Trapezoid: Rectangle and right triangle.

Rectangle = 1 side of the width is the long leg of the right triangle.

a = 8 - 2 = 6 ; b = 12 - 9 = 3
6² + 3² = c² ; 36 + 9 = 45 ; c = √45 = 6.71 units

upper base:CD:  9 - 2 = 7
lower base: BA: 12 - 2 = 10
side: DA: 8 - 2 = 6
side: CB: 6.71

Perimeter = 7 + 10 + 6 + 6.71 = 29.71 units

The first one is just some simple application of Pythagora's theorem.

Since you go up -2 (no negative lengths), and across 4. You can apply the theorem to get:
2^2 + 4^2 = x^2
x = 4.4721
x = 4.5

you deposit $50 in your savings account. One week later, you withdraw $20. Write each amount as an integer

Answers

When you deposit $50 into your account, you add it to the amount already in your account. (Some people oversee this error and assume the account has a balance of 0.)

So you add 50 to x, our variable, and then subtract 20 from it because we withdrew $20.

So the amount remaining is x+30.

However, the question asks for every amount to be written as an integer. Let's say that 50 is a, 20 is b, and the original amount is x.
The equation would be x+a-b.

Mr. Norris wrote a doubles fact It has a greater than 6. The numbers that he sum than 6. What fact added are each less might he have written?

Answers

Answer:

answer is 4  + 4 and 5 + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have given that

1) wrote a doubles that is greater than 6

to find out

What added  each less might he have written

so we can say it could be

4 + 4 = 8

because number is added is less than 6 and sum greater than 6

and other is

5 + 5 = 10

so answer is 4  + 4 and 5 + 5
