Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
2(10 -6x)=x -8x
20 - 12x = x - 8x
20 = x - 8x + 12x
20 = 5x
20 / 5 = x
x = 4
option B) 3 pounds of beef is needed to make 6 times the recipe.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
<u>step 1 </u>:
Mitch used 14 pounds of beef = 34 liters of beef strogonoff
'x' pounds of beef = 1 liter of beef strogonoff
<u>step 2</u> :
Rate = No. of pounds / No. of liters
(14 pounds / 34 liters) = (x pounds / 1 liter)
x = 14/34
x = 0.412
1 liter of beef strogonoff = 0.412 pounds of beef
<u>step 3</u> :
To make 6 times the recipe = 6
0.412
= 2.5 pounds of beef ( approximately 3 pounds)
