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?

We need to find the price changes in each day of the week in order to find the price of the stock on Thursday.

Monday’s price was $50.33

Tuesday’s price went up by $2.35 from Monday’s price. The price was $(50.33+2.35)=$52.68

Wednesday’s price decreased by $1.07 from Tuesday’s price, and so the price of the stock was $(52.68-1.07)=$51.61

Thursday’s price increased by $0.75 from Wednesday’s price, which was $(51.61+0.75)=$52.36

Therefore, the price of the stock on Thursday was $52.36.

Percentages are fractions with denominator equal to 100. The given percent is divided by 100. To convert it to a decimal form, we move the decimal point two points to the left from the current position. Thus

The decimal form of 87.5% is 0.875.

We are asked to find the Kwame’s uncle’s age in terms of Kwame’s age.

First, we need to find the age of Kwame, which is k. Then, we know that Kwame’s uncle’s age is three times that of Kwame less 17. Then,

Kwame’s uncle’s age, u = 3k-17.

Thus, the relation that relates Kwame’s uncle’s age to that of Kwame is u=3k-17.

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.

Step 1: Determine the remaining balance

The total cost of the television is $1,570, and the consumer made a $400 down payment.

Remainingbalance=1,570−400=1,170

Step 2: Calculate the number of months

The consumer pays $100 per month, so:

Months=1,170/100=11.7

Since the consumer cannot make a fraction of a payment, they will need 12 months to fully pay off the television.

We are asked to make x the subject of the formula.

First, we add z to both sides of the equation

Multiply both sides by y

The above equation can be rearranged into

Thus, the formula for finding the value of x is y(z+rw).

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.

The question requires us to find the percentage change in weight of a person.

First, we need to find the change in weight over the 3 months

Change in weight= 180-160=20 lb

Percent change in weight is change of original weight *100. Thus

The percent change in weight is 11% to the nearest whole number.

By inspection, we find the corresponding values of the given denominations in the following manner.

To find the cost-effective option, we need to find how much the consumer will spend for the given options:

2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost $18+$5= $23

3 Packs of Orange will cost $18+$10=$28

2 packs of Root Beer and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost 2($12)+$5=$29

5 packs of cream Soda will cost 5($5)=$25

From the above evaluation, the consumer will spend $23 for a cost effective package of soft drinks. Thus, 2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will be cheaper to purchase compared to other options.
