A baker is using a cookie recipe that call for 2 ¼ cups of flour to yield 36 cookies. How much flour will the baker need to make 90 cookies using the same recipe?

The probability of an event is determined by the relation

Finding the probability of drawing the red ball, we need to find the total number of balls in the bag.

Total number of balls in the bag=5+4+3=12 balls

The probability of drawing a red ball from the bag is 1/3.

We let x represent the amount of vanilla in mL, since this is what the question is asking us to find.

Next, we will set up a proportion with number of teaspoons on the numerator and amount in mL in the denominator.

Cross-multiply to find the value of x

A recipe of 2.5 teaspoons equals 12.325 mL.

We use the relation 1 L=1000 mL to convert 0.5 L to mL as follows.

Thus, 0.5 L is 500 mL.

Let x be the employee's salary before the raise. The employee received a 20% raise, so the new salary is:

x+0.2x=60,000

Step 1: Factor out x

1.2x=60,000

Step 2: Solve for x

x=60,000/1.2=50,000

In this problem, we need to compare the number of dimes to quarters.

If we let n be number of pennies in the bottle. Then,

Number of quarters in the bottle = 2n

Number of nickels in the bottle = 4n

Number of dimes in the bottle =5(4n)=20n

Now relating dimes to quarters, we have

Thus, there are 10 times as many dimes as quarters in the box.

We are asked to find the number of gallons full tank can hold. The fraction of full tank is 1.

First, we let x be the number of gallons in full tank. Then, set the proportion equation by setting the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.

Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction and cross-multiply to find the value of x.

Converting 42/5 to a mixed fraction is 8 2/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 8 2/5 gallons of water.

To find the median, we arrange the following numbers in data set from the smallest to the largest as follows.

-3, -2, 0, 5, 10

From the above the data set, the median falls in the third position. Thus, 0 is the median for the given data set.

To calculate the percentage increase in client volume, use the formula:

PercentageIncrease×100

Step 1: Identify values

• Old Value (Year 1): 841 clients
• New Value (Year 2): 1,072 clients

Step 2: Compute the increase

1,072−841=231

Step 3: Calculate the percentage increase

×100 ≈ 27.47%

Step 4: Choose the closest answer

The closest option is 27%.

To find the greatest number from the given options, we first convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

-0.7 becomes 7/10

-1.3 becomes 13/10

Then, we find the LCM for the denominators of the given fractions. The LCM of 3 and 10 is 30. Now we can multiply each fraction with the LCM.

-2/3*30=-20

-7/10*30=-70

-13/10*30=-39

-4/3*30=-40

Comparing the obtained values from above, -20 is the greatest followed by -39, -40, -70 in that order. The fraction -2/3 gave a value of -20, which was the greatest value. Thus, -2/3 is the greatest value from the given option.

We follow the order of operations to solve the given expression.

First, we start with the numerator and solve it as follows

[2(3+5*3)]

We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 5*3=15. The expression becomes

[2(3+15)]

Then, we conduct the addition of 3+15=18. Then, the expression yields

[2(18)]=2*18=36

Now, we solve for denominator, which is 12/2=6.

Thus, the expression is reduced into

The expression reduces into 6.
