Answer:
$15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by figuring out how much 1 cup of oil costs.
12 cups of oil is 36$
Let's set up a proportion.
12/36=1/x
Cross Multiply
12x=36
Divide both sides by 12.
x=3
1 cup of oil is $3.
Dinesh makes 5 batches of hummus, and each batch requires 1 cup of oil.
5*1=5
This means he needs 5 cups of oil.
5*3=15
He used $15 worth of oil in the 5 batches of his recipe.
However, since it is impossible to buy 5/12 bottles of oil, he would have needed to spend $36.
Answer:
6 grapples
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of wins
y = number of ties
y = 15 - x
48 = 5x + 2y
48 = 5x + 2(15 - x)
48 = 5x + 30 - 2x
48 = 3x + 30
18 = 3x
x = 6
Answer: x ≥ 6
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
12 less <u>than</u> 5 times a number ≥ 6 more <u>than</u> twice the number
5x - 12 ≥ 2x + 6
Note: the word "than" switches the order of the terms.
5x - 12 ≥ 2x + 6
<u>-2x +12</u> <u>-2x +12 </u>
3x ≥ 18
<u>÷3 </u> <u> ÷3 </u>
x ≥ 6

The book weighs 96 ounces.
One pound is 16 ounces, and 16 x 6 is 96.
