Lena [83]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:-7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-2)=6x+2-2(-2x-4)

Open brackets

2x-4=6x+2+4x+8

Collect like terms

-4-2-8=6x+4x-2x

-14=8x

Divide both sides by 8

-14/8=8x/8

-7/4=x

x=-7/4

On a package of rice, the directions say that the ratio of cups of water to cups of uncooked rice should be 1: 1 2 . a. What is
iragen [17]
A) To cook 1/2 cup of rice, the package tells you that you also need 1 cup of water. The the total volume of ingredients is
.. 1/2 c + 1 c = 1 1/2 c


b) According to the package the ratio of water to rice is
.. water : rice = 1 : 1/2 = 2 : 1
Then the ratio of water to total ingredients is
.. water : (water + rice) = 2 : (2 +1) = 2 : 3

Susan's ratio is incorrect. Susan is using "1" for the total of ingredients, instead of 2+1 = 3. The correct ratio is 2:3.

An 8-quart jug of water costs $6.08. What is the price per cup?
padilas [110]

Answer:

$0.19 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how many cups are in 8 quarts.

1 quart is 4 cups, so to find the number of cups, multiply 8 by 4:

8(4)

= 32 cups

Then, to find the price per cup, divide the cost by the number of cups:

6.08/32

= 0.19

So, the price per cup is $0.19 cents
