The amount of oil used in four different recipes is shown in the table. Recipe Oil Bread 2/8 cup Cookies 1/3 cup Cake 1/5 cup Pie 1/7 cup Which recipe uses the most oil? bread cookies cake pie

I think that the answer is cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

The least common denominator for the fractions would be 840.

Bread: 2/8 x 105/105 = 210/840

Pie: 1/7 x 120/120 = 120/840

Cookies: 1/3 x 280/280 = 280/840

Cake: 1/5 x 168/168 = 168/840

Least to greatest:

120/840, 168/840, 210/840, 280/840

That is how I know that the cookies use the most oil.

I got this information from Calculator Soup so this isn’t all of my information.

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240

you have to wait a while to reward brainliest if only one person answers. if 2 people answer there should be a "mark brainliest" on their question.

i cant fully remember all of the ranks, here are the ones i remember.

hand, ambitous, ace, genius.
