Given:
3 teaspoons of salt for every 5 cups of flour.
How much salt is needed for 15 cups of flour?
This is a proportion problem:
a/b = c/d where ad = bc
3/5 = x/15
3*15 = 5x
45 = 5x
45/5 = x
9 = x
C. 9 teaspoons of salt is needed for 15 cups of flour.
3/5 = 9/15
3*15 = 5*9
45 = 45
Answer:
1.) - 1/2
2.) the slope is 0 which means it is a vertical line
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this you take the formula
y-y / x-x
and put they y value and x value of each equation in
D ..................................................................................................................
9^2/9^7
when dividing powers, we subtract the exponents
9^(2-7)
9^ (-5)
a negative exponent flips from the numerator to the denominator
1/ 9^5
Choice D
