As the number of credit hours a student takes in a semester increases, the amount of tuition, the amount of access fees, and the number of student loans available also increase. Which of the following is the independent variable?

We required to find the units of finding the weight of a spoon. The mass is measured in kilogram and grams. Kilograms are used to measure the mass of heavier objects while grams for small and lighter objects.

Thus, gram is the appropriate unit for measuring weight of a spoon.

Centimeteris the appropriate unit to measure the length of a dollar bill.

We are asked to find the dependent variable from the given scenario. A dependent variable is one which varies with another variable. In this case, the cost of the pizza will change with the change in diameter of the pizza, number of toppings, and amount of cheese. In other words, the cost of the pizza depends on the three variables.

Therefore, cost is the dependent variable while the diameter of the pizza, number of toppings and amount of cheese are independent variables.

We let x represent the amount of vanilla in mL, since this is what the question is asking us to find.

Next, we will set up a proportion with number of teaspoons on the numerator and amount in mL in the denominator.

Cross-multiply to find the value of x

A recipe of 2.5 teaspoons equals 12.325 mL.

To find the greatest number from the given options, we first convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

4.25 becomes 425/100

4.4 becomes 44/10

Then, we find the LCM for the denominators of the given fractions. The LCM of 2, 100, 3 and 10 is 300. Now we can multiply each fraction with the LCM.

9/2*300=1350

425/100*300=1275

10/3*300=1000

44/10*300=1320

Comparing the obtained values from above, 1350 is the greatest followed by 1320, 12750, and 1000 in that order. The fraction 9/2 gave a value of 1350, which was the greatest value. Thus, 9/2 is the greatest value from the given option.

You can also convert to decimals and compare which would give you the same answer.

We convert the given value in yard to the cm using the following set up.

The value 91.44 cm is close to 90 cm. Therefore, 1 yard is approximately 90 cm.

The number of boxes is determined by finding the volume of the room divided by the volume of the box.

Number of boxes

The approximate number of boxes that can be stored in the room is 92.

However, the room’s dimensions are 9 ft x 9 ft x 9 ft, and the boxes are 2 ft x 2 ft x 2 ft (unchangeable shape). To determine how many boxes fit along each dimension:

• In the 9 ft length, you can fit$\frac{9}{2}=4.5boxes$ which means only 4 whole boxes fit along this dimension.
• In the 9 ft width, you can fit 4 whole boxes.
• In the 9 ft height, you can fit 4 whole boxes.

Therefore, the total number of boxes that fit is:

$4\times 4\times 4=64boxes$

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 being asked to find the amount of milk needed. This is a proportion problem, which compares the amount of flour to that of milk. Letting x represent the amount of milk required, we set up the proportion with flour on the numerator and amount of milk in denominator as follows:

Change the mixed fraction of 1 1/5 into improper fraction as follows

The proportion equation becomes

Cross-multiply to solve for x

As an mixed fraction, 36/5 becomes 7 1/5. Therefore, 7 1/5 cups of milk are needed to make a big batch of 2 cups.

We need to find the value of x from the given equation. First, we move the value of 10 to the right-hand side of the equation.

Add 10 to both sides of the equation

Next, we apply the absolute rule:

,   a>0, then u=a or u=-a

In this case a=12, which is greater 0. Then, the first condition becomes

Solving for x

The second condition becomes

Solving for x

Then, the value of x is -1 or 2.
