A macaroni and cheese recipe calls for 1/4 cup of flour for every 1 1/6 cup of milk. To make a bigger batch, the chef uses 5 cups of flour.

Which of the following would be the amount of milk needed for the bigger batch?

To simplify this expression, we follow the order of operations as follows:

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

[2(6+3*9)]

We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 3 * 9 = 27. The expression becomes

[2(6+27)]

Then, we carry out the addition of 6+27=33. Then, the expression yields

[2(33)]=2*33=66

Now, we solve for denominator, which is 6/2=3.

Thus, the expression is reduced into

The expression reduces into 22.

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

This is a proportion equation, and letting x be the number of cups of flour we set the equation as follows:

Solve the value of x by cross-products

Next, we convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction in order to carry out multiplication

The baker needs 15.75 cups of flour to make 120 cookies.  15.75 in mixed fraction is  

The sides of a right-angled triangle are determined by the Pythagoras theorem. If we let the unknown side to x as in the figure below, then theory is applied as follows.  

The value of x is found as:

The value of the unknown leg side of a triangle is about 9.8 feet.

we are to use the pie chart to find the number of students enrolled in dental hygiene care.

Letting x represent the number of students enrolled in dental hygiene care, we set the proportion equation with number of students as numerator and percentage as denominator. It should be noted that the whole pie chart represents 100% of the 800 students. Then,

We solve the value of x by cross-products.

Therefore, 144 students will enroll for a dental hygiene program.

we are asked to find the area of a rectangle, which can only be found by finding the relation between length and width. Now, letting x represent the width, then

Length of rectangle=(x+2)

Width of the rectangle= x

Area of the rectangle, A= Length*width=(x+2)*x

A=x(x+2)

Therefore, the area of the rectangle becomes x(x+2).

A histogram will be appropriate to represent the time the students wake up every day of the week. The histogram is used to represent the frequency of the variable with another variable. In our case the vertical axis will represent the number of students (frequency) while the time of waking up on the horizontal axis.

we need to find the circumference of the circle from the given area.

The first step is to find the radius of the circle using the given area. Let r be the radius of the circle, then:

Substituting the value of area in the above equation becomes

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

Now, we know the radius of circle to be  9 in, the circumference of the circle becomes,

  in.

The SI units of measuring length is meter. However, a meter can be a large unit or small quantity depending what is being measured. Therefore, derived units of meters are used to measure the length of an object. In our case, centimeters is the appropriate unit to measure the width of the window.

we set the conversion equation to find the unknown unit. Arrange the equation such that the unwanted units cancel out and the wanted unit remains.

The value 365.76 cm is close to 365 cm. Therefore, 4 yards is approximately 365 cm.

The slope represents the ratio of rise to run. Let p be the minimum length of the ramp, we can set a ratio equation as follows. Then,

The minimum length of the ramp needed is 18 feet to access to a door that is 1.5 feet above the sidewalk.
