3/4 gallon of batter is poured equally into 2 bowls. how many gallons of batter are in each bowl?

gallons or 0.375 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given gallon of batter is poured equally into 2 bowls.

We have to calculate the amount poured in each bowl.

The amount poured in both bowls = of 1 gallons

amount in each bowl = ÷

                                   =

                                   = gallons

                                   = 0.375 gallons

0.375 gallon of batter poured in each bowl.

(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
