A baker is using a cookie recipe that call for 2 ¼ cups of flour to yield 40 cookies. How much flour will the baker need to make 90 cookies using the same recipe?

Given:

• 2 teaspoons of baking powder for every ½ cup of flour.
• We are using 5 cups of flour.

Step 1: Determine how many teaspoons are needed per cup of flour.

Since the recipe calls for 2 teaspoons for every ½ cup of flour, the number of teaspoons required for 1 full cup of flour would be:

2 teaspoons×2=4 teaspoonspercup.

Step 2: Calculate how many teaspoons are needed for 5 cups of flour.

Now, multiply the number of teaspoons needed for 1 cup of flour by 5:

4 teaspoonspercup×5 cups=20 teaspoons.

Thus, the number of teaspoons of baking powder needed for 5 cups of flour is 20 teaspoons.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. 20 tsp.

Before finding the greatest number from the data set, the numbers need to be in fraction form.

-0.5=-5/10

-1.5=-15/10

The set of numbers becomes -2/3, -5/10, -15/10, -4/9

Now the least common denominator for 3, 10, and 9 is 90, which will be used to multiplied by the given fractions as follows:

-2/3*90=-60

-5/10*90=-45

-15/10*90=-135

-4/9*90=-40

From the above evaluations, the resulting numbers arranged from the smallest to the largest is -135, -60, -45, -40. Thus, the greatest number from the data set is -40, with a corresponding fraction of -4/9.

Let the unknown length of the x. The resulting triangle is shown below.

We use the Pythagoras theorem as follows to find the unknown value of x as:

Thus, the value of unknown side of the triangle is 21.8 feet.

To convert millilitres (mL) to litres (L), we use the fact that:

1 L=1000 mL

So, to convert 2,500 mL to litres:

=2.5 L

Thus, the patient needs 2.5 litres of saline.

The correct answer is C. 2.5 L.

The number of cups of milk to make a bigger batch, we proceed as follows:

First convert the mixed number 1 2/5 as

Then, we let the unknown number of cups of milk to be x and we set a proportion equation with number cups of floor as numerator and cups of milk as denominator

Find the value of x by cross-products

2 as a fraction is 2/1 which is then used to find the product of the numerator as follows.

Per means division. The above equation becomes

When dividing fractions, we multiply the first fraction with the reciprocal of the second. The reciprocal of 2/9 is 9/2. Thus

The numbers of cups of milk required is 63/5, which when converted to mixed fraction becomes 12 3/5.

We are asked to determine Japheth’s uncle’s age relating to Japheth’s age.

First, express Japheth’s uncle’s age in terms of Japheth’s age as follows

Japheth’s age=k

Japheth’s uncle’s age, u = 3k-10.

Thus, the relationship between Japheth’s uncle’s age to that of Japheth is u=3k-10.

We need to find the radius of the circle in order to find circumference of the circle. If we let r to be radius of the circle, then

Substituting 169π in place of area

Dividing both sides by pi and taking square root on both sides yields

The radius of the circle from the given area is 13 in. and the circumference of the circle is given by the relation:

The probability of finding a green ball is given by

Total number of balls in the bag=6+8+3=17 balls

Therefore, the probability of drawing a green ball from the bag containing 17 balls is 6/17.

C organizes the collection correctly.

We are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 90 cookies.

First, we convert 2 ¼ into improper fraction as:

Letting x to be the number of cups of flour, we set up a proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator becomes:

Solve the value of x by cross-products

Dividing both sides by 60, the above equation result to

Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 81/16 cups, which is equal to 5 1/16 cups.
