A baker is using a cookie recipe that calls for 3 ¼ cups of flour to yield 64 cookies. How much flour will the baker need to make 130 cookies using the same recipe?

The initial step is to convert the decimal options to fractions. Then, we find the LCM of the denominators of all fractions, which will be used to compare the values of the given options.

-0. becomes -9/10

-1.7 becomes -17/10

Then, the resulting denominators are 9, 10, and 63. Their LCM of 630 is used to multiply each fraction.

-2/9*630=-140

-9/10*630=-567

-17/10*630=-1071

-4/7*630=-360

From the calculations above, -140 is the greatest value of all the values. Thus, -2/9 is the greatest number.

 We are asked to convert kg to pounds using the given relation. Letting x to represent the lb we are looking for.

Nest, we set the proportion with kg in the numerator and lb on the denominator as follows.

We find the value of x by cross-multiplication

The value of x is 110 lb.

The perimeter of a shape is the sum of the lengths of all its sides.

Given Trapezoid:

• Top side: 10 cm
• Bottom side: 16 cm
• Left slant side: 5 cm
• Right slant side: 5 cm

Calculate the Perimeter:

10+16+5+5=36cm

To find the area of the room, we form an equation of find an equation relating the length and width of the rectangle. If we let the width of the room to be w, then

Width of the rectangle= w

Length of rectangle=(w+8)

Area of the rectangle, A= Length*width=(w+8)*w

A=w(w+8)

Thus, the area of the rectangular room is w(w+8).

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

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

[3(2+6*4)]

We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 6*4=24. The expression becomes

[3(2+24)]

Then, we conduct the addition of 2+24=26. Then, the expression becomes

[3(26)]=3*26=78

Now, we solve for denominator, which is 26/2=13.

Thus, the expression is reduced into

\(\frac{[3(2+6\ast4)]}{(26\div2)}=\frac{78}{13}=6\)

The expression reduces into 6.

The scatter plot showing the relationship between the number of absences in a semester and students’ final exam scores. The trend shows that as absences increase, exam scores decrease.

This represents a Negative Correlation because:

• When one variable (absences) increases, the other variable (exam score) decreases.
• The points on the scatter plot trend downward from left to right.

The range of a data set is calculated as:

Range=MaximumValue−MinimumValue

From the given bar graph:

• The minimum number of goals scored is 0.
• The maximum number of goals scored is 5.

Thus, the range is:

5−0=5

The range is a simple measure of statistical dispersion that shows the spread between the highest and lowest values in a data set.

Formula for Range:

Range=MaximumValue−MinimumValue

Example Calculation:

From the given box plot:
Identify the maximum value: 92

1. Identify the minimum value: 12
2. Subtract the minimum from the maximum: 92−12=80

Thus, the range of this data set is 80.

The number of boxes is found by volume of the room divided by volume of one box.

Number of boxes

The room can hold 125 boxes.

we are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 130 cookies.

First, we convert 3 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 64, the above equation result to

Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 130 cookies is 845/128 cups, which is equal to 6 77/128 cups.
