You need to find x so that then you can do it and you didn’t share a answer so how are we supposed to know??
Answer:
325 miles and 77 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
First, create equations. Let x equal the miles driven. The first plan expression is 38 + 0.12x and the second plan expression is 51 + 0.08x. Setting these equal and solve for x: 38 + 0.12x = 51 + 0.08x -> 0.04x = 13 -> x = 325 miles.
The cost is found by substituting it into any of the expressions: 51 + 0.08(325) = 77 or 38 + 0.12(325) = 77

How to get these answers
She uses 1/3 of a cup for 1 cake, so we have this ratio
1/3 cup : 1 cake
Multiply both sides by 3 and we end up with
1 cup : 3 cakes
Then multiply both sides by 4 to change "1 cup" to "4 cups" and we have
4 cups : 12 cakes which is the answer to the first part
-------------
For part 2, we'll follow the same steps as before, but instead of multiplying both sides by 4, we do 2 instead because we're dealing with 2 cups of oil.
1/3 cup : 1 cake
3*(1/3 cup) : 3*(1 cake)
1 cup : 3 cakes
2*(1 cup) : 2*(3 cakes)
2 cups : 6 cakes which is the answer to the second part
