Answer:
I think its c I'm not sure
Answer:
The mixtures are not proportional.
3 fluid ounces of vinegar has to be added in the second mixture to make it proportional to the first mixture.
its =3
Step-by-step explanation:
The one mixture contains 6 fluid ounces and 10 fluid ounces of water and vinegar respectively.
Therefore, the ratio of water to vinegar in the first mixture is 6 : 10 = 3 : 5
Now, a second mixture contains 9 fluid ounces of water and 12 fluid ounces of vinegar.
Hence, the ratio of water to vinegar in the second mixture is 9 : 12 = 3 : 4
Therefore, the mixtures are not proportional.
Therefore, we have to add x fluid ounces of vinegar to the second mixture to make it in the ratio of 3 : 5.
So,
⇒ 12 + x = 15
⇒ x = 3 fluid ounces.
Therefore, 3 fluid ounces of vinegar has to be added in the second mixture to make it proportional to the first mixture. (Answer
32 students choose a favorite topping for their slices.
Let x be the total number of students.
1/2 of the total students, or 1/2x, choose pepperoni.
1/4 of the total students, or 1/4x, choose extra cheese.
1/8 of the total students, or 1/8x, choose sausage.
4 students choose mushrooms.
We know that together, these equal the total number of students, x:
1/2x+1/4x+1/8x+4=x
We will use 8 as the common denominator:
4/8x+2/8x+1/8x+4=x
Combining like terms:
7/8x+4=x
Subtract 7/8x from both sides:
7/8x+4-7/8x=x-7/8x
4=1x-7/8x
4=1/8x
Divide both sides by 1/8:
4÷(1/8) = 1/8x÷(1/8)
4/1÷(1/8) = x
4/1×8/1 = x
32/1 = x
32 = x
Commutaive property says
ab=ba or expanded to say
abc=cba
associative peropty =
a(bc)=(ab)c
so using that
first mix them up knowing that we can move the parenthaseese
all possible equivelnt ones are
4*(5*3)
(3*5)*4
3*(5*4)
(3*4)*5
3*(4*5)
I believe the answer would be x = - 7/4
