The ratio of flour cups to sugar cups can be illustrted as below:
4 cups of flour= 2 cups of of sugar cups
so x cups of flour = 42 cups of sugar
Lets cross multiply :
x * 2 = 4 * 42
2x = 168 ..... divide by 2 both sides :
x =168/2 = 84
• This means 84 cups of flour is needed in order to correspond with 42 cups of sugar.
The answer to the question is -1
The answer is: y = 3x + -5
Brung like terms together:-
1/4 y - 1 3/4 y + 11/2 + 2 - 12
= - 1 1/2 y + 11/2 - 10
= - 1 1/2y - 9/2.
Or i can give ou another way. 1 11 13 ((((—•y)+——)+2)-(——•y))-12
