Addie increased the amount of chocolate chips she used for the cookie recipe by 45%. The original recipe used 28 ounces of chocolate chips. How many ounces of chocolate chips will Addie use for her recipe?

10%of 28=2.8

40%=2.8 ×4=11.2

5%(half of 10%)=1.4

then you add 40%and 5% which is 11.2+1.4=12.6

(on a calculator you can work percentage by doing 45 percentage button×the amount)

then you add 28 ounces(original)+(increase) which is 12.6=

40.6

Addie will use 40.6 ounces of chocolate for her recipe

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180

for this case we must apply distributive property to the following expression:

the distributive property states that:

then, when applying the property we have to multiply the -2 for each term within the parenthesis:
