Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
X + y = 40.....multiply by -4
4x + 6y = 180
-------------------
-4x - 4y = -160 (result of multiplying by -4)
4x + 6y = 180
------------------add
2y = 20
y = 20/2
y = 10 <===
x = 30
Answer:
64/3 tablespoons of sugar for 32 ounces of water
Step-by-step explanation:
In these kinds of questions it is nice to find how muc of 1 thing there is for every ONE of another. so 8 tablespoons of sugar for 12 ouncesof water you can divide both sides by 8 or 12.
Dividing it by 8 gets 8/8 = 1 tablespoon of sugar for 12/8 = 1.5 ounces of water.
Dividing by 12 gets 8/12 = 2/3 tablespoon of sugar for 12/12 = 1 ounce of water.
Now you can take one or the other and multiply it to fit whichever you want to fit a ratio.
It asks what happens if you use 32 ounces of water, so lets use the ratio where we hae 1 ounce, then multiply everything by 32.
2/3 tablespoon of sugar for 1 ounce of water
Multiply by 32 and you get 32*(2/3) = 64/3 tablespoons of sugar for 32 ounces of water
