Heavy cream is 36% butterfat while whole milk contains only 4% butterfat. in order to make a delicious pint of ice cream, a recipe calls for 2 cups of a mixture that is 24% butterfat. how many cups of heavy cream should be used to produce the correct butterfat percentage?

cups of heavy cream.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent cups of heavy cream and y represent cups of whole milk.

We have been given that a recipe calls for 2 cups of a mixture. We can represent this information in an equation as:

We are also told that heavy cream is 36% butterfat, so butterfat in x cups of heavy cream would be .

We are also told that whole milk contains only 4% butterfat, so butterfat in y cups of whole milk would be .

The recipe calls for 2 cups of a mixture that is 24% butterfat. We can represent this information in an equation as:

From equation (1), we will get:

Upon substituting this value in equation (2), we will get:

Combine like terms:

Therefore, cups of heavy cream should be used to produce the correct butterfat percentage.

the length of o'p' is .

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the quadrilateral m'n'o'p' is the image of quadrilateral mnop after dilation.

the center of dilation is origin and the scale factor is 1.5.

in dilation the image and preimge are similar figures. it means the sides of image and preimage are proportional.

the scale factor is defined as

the scale factor is 1.5.

multiply both sides by op.

note: if the value of op is given, then multiply the value of op with 1.5 to get the length of side o'p'.

therefore length of o'p' is .
