A bakery has 72 half-gallons of milk. It takes 1 2/3 cups of milk to make a cake. Note that 1 cup=1/8 half- gallon. How many cakes can the bakery make?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

345

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many cakes the bakery can make, you'll need to convert the amount of milk they have into cups and then divide by the amount of milk needed to make one cake.

First, let's convert the 72 half-gallons of milk into cups:

1 half-gallon = 8 cups (since 1 cup is 1/8 of a half-gallon)

So, 72 half-gallons = 72 x 8 cups = 576 cups of milk.

Now, you mentioned that it takes 1 2/3 cups of milk to make a cake.

Let's convert this mixed number into an improper fraction: 1 2/3 = (3 x 1 + 2)/3 = 5/3 cups of milk for one cake.

Now, we can find out how many cakes the bakery can make by dividing the total cups of milk by the amount needed for one cake: 576 cups of milk ÷ (5/3) cups per cake = 576 cups ÷ (5/3) ≈ 345.6 cakes.

Since you can't make a fraction of a cake, the bakery can make approximately 345 cakes with the milk they have.

Eric sells shirts. It costs him $100 to buy all the shirts and $10, total, to print designs on them. Eric sells each shirt for $4. So far he has sold 20 shirts. He uses the equation y = 4x - 110 to calculate his profit. What is the constant in Eric’s equation?
A) 4
B) -10
C) 20
D) -110

Answers

C) 20 is the constant. He can plug in the 20 into the value of x (shirts sold) to solve for y (profit).

What is the combination?

The arrangement of the different things or numbers in a number of ways is called the combination.

Here we need to find the outcomes of the winning of 10 people the combination will be:-

^(10) C _1=(10!)/((10-1)!)=(10!)/(9!)\n\n\n^(10) C _1 = 10

Hence the number of the outcomes will be 10 if there is not any tie.
