Well, if 150 grams is used for 5 cakes, we can divide that.
150/5=30. 30 grams of sugar are used for each cake
You want to know how many grams for 7 cakes
30x7=<u><em>210 grams of sugar are used for seven cakes.
</em></u>Hope this helps!<u><em>

An event that cannot happen is impossible
Answer:
- x = ±√3, and they are actual solutions
- x = 3, but it is an extraneous solution
Step-by-step explanation:
The method often recommended for solving an equation of this sort is to multiply by the product of the denominators, then solve the resulting polynomial equation. When you do that, you get ...
... x^2(6x -18) = (2x -6)(9)
... 6x^2(x -3) -18(x -3) = 0
...6(x -3)(x^2 -3) = 0
... x = 3, x = ±√3
_____
Alternatively, you can subtract the right side of the equation and collect terms to get ...
... x^2/(2(x -3)) - 9/(6(x -3)) = 0
... (1/2)(x^2 -3)/(x -3) = 0
Here, the solution will be values of x that make the numerator zero:
... x = ±√3
_____
So, the actual solutions are x = ±3, and x = 3 is an extraneous solution. The value x=3 is actually excluded from the domain of the original equation, because the equation is undefined at that point.

<em>Comment on the graph</em>
For the graph, we have rewritten the equation so it is of the form f(x)=0. The graphing program is able to highlight zero crossings, so this is a convenient form. When the equation is multiplied as described above, the resulting cubic has an extra zero-crossing at x=3 (blue curve). This is the extraneous solution.
Problem 7: Correct
Problem 8: Correct
Problem 9: Correct
The steps are below if you are curious
===========================================================================================
Problem 7
S = 180*(n-2)
2340 = 180*(n-2)
2340/180 = n-2
13 = n-2
n-2 = 13
n = 13+2
n = 15
I'm using n in place of lowercase s, but the idea is the same. If anything, it is better to use n for the number of sides since S already stands for the sum of the interior angles. I'm not sure why your teacher decided to swap things like that.
===========================================================================================
Problem 8
First find y
y+116 = 180
y+116-116 = 180-116
y = 64
which is then used to find x. The quadrilateral angles add up to 180*(n-2) = 180*(4-2) = 360 degrees
Add up the 4 angles, set the sum equal to 360, solve for x
x+y+125+72 = 360
x+64+125+72 = 360 ... substitution (plug in y = 64)
x+261 = 360
x+261-261 = 360-261
x = 99
===========================================================================================
Problem 9
With any polygon, the sum of the exterior angles is always 360 degrees
The first two exterior angles add to 264. The missing exterior angle is x
x+264 = 360
x+264-264 = 360-264
x = 96
Answer:
112 Degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 8 is 112 degrees, and 6 is opposite of 8, that means the measure of angle 6 is also 112 degrees
