Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

you do 2/9 + 1/6 and get 7/18

next you do 14 divided by 7/18 and get 36.

then you do 2/9 times 36 and get 8 cups of cocoa

The last step is to multiply 1/6 times 36 and get 6 cups of milk

Answer: There are 8 cups of cocoa and 6 cups of milk to make the standard recipe for Hershey's chocolate.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of cups of cocoa is given by

\frac{2}{9}

Number of cups of milk is given by

\frac{1}{6}

Since there are total number of cups of ingredients = 14

First, we find out the ratio of cups of cocoa and milk i.e.

\frac{2}{9}:\frac{1}{6}\\\\=12:9\\\\=4:3

So, Number of cups of cocoa is given by

\frac{4}{7}\times 14\\\\4\times 2\\\\=8

Number of cups of milk is given by

\frac{3}{7}\times 14\\\\3\times 2\\\\=6

Hence, there are 8 cups of cocoa and 6 cups of milk to make the standard recipe for Hershey's chocolate.

Solve these equations.<br> |x-7|=x-7
Cloud [144]

Answer:

x ≥ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 7| = x - 7

A. For each absolute, find the intervals

x - 7 ≥ 0     x - 7 < 0

     x ≥ 7           x < 7

If x ≥ 7, |x - 7| = x - 7 > 0.

If x < 7, |x - 7| = x - 7 < 0. No solution.

B. Solve for x < 7

Rewrite |x - 7| = x - 7 as

+(x - 7) = x - 7

      x - 7 = x - 7

-x + 14 = x

        14 = 2x

          x = 7

7 ≮7. No solution

C. Solve for x ≥ 7

Rewrite |x - 7| = x - 7 as

+(x - 7) = x - 7

      x - 7 = x - 7

True for all x.

D. Merge overlapping intervals

No solution or x ≥ 7

⇒ x ≥ 7

The diagram below shows that the graphs of y = |x - 7| (blue) and of y = x - 7 (dashed red) coincide only when x ≥ 7.
