Answer:

1,680 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can create a proportion using this setup:

grams/people=grams/people

The recipe needs 480 grams for 4 people and x (unknown-what we are trying to find) grams for 14 people.

480 grams/4 people=x grams/14

480/4=x/14

Now, we have to solve for x-the grams needed for 14 people. To do this, we have to get x by itself. x is being divided by 14. To undo this, multiply both sides by 14, because multiplication is the opposite of division.

14(480/4)=(x/14)14

14(480/4)=x

14*120=x

1680=x

She needs 1,680 grams of couscous for 14 people.

Plums are $3.25 for 2 pounds, i need 4 pounds. how much will it cost
olasank [31]
<u />\frac{3.25}{2lbs} = \frac{x}{4lbs}  \\  \frac{3.25}{2} *  \frac{2}{2} = \frac{x}{4}  \\  \frac{3.25 * 2}{2*2} = \frac{x}{4}  \\ 3.25*2 = x \\ x = 6.50
It will cost $6.50 for four pounds of plums.

Hope this helps!

Use the digits 0-9, find out how many 4 digit numbers can be configured based on the stated conditions:
Alexeev081 [22]
A) On the first place we can put 9 digits, on the second 9, on the third place 8 and on the last place 7 ( because no digits can be repeated ):
9 · 9 · 8 · 7 =4536 numbers
b) There are 5 odd digits can be repeated. So:
5 · 10 · 10 · 5 = 2500 numbers
c) On the first place we can put:5,6,7,8,9 (5 digits) On the last place is just one (0), because the number must be divisible by 10:
5 · 10 · 10 · 1 = 500 numbers
d) on the first place we can put 2 digits ( 1, or 2 - there are no 4-digit numbers starting with 0). The last digit must be even, but the order can be:
X - odd - odd - even           2 · 5 · 4 ·  5 = 200
X - odd - even - even         2 · 5  · 5 · 4 = 200
X - even - odd - even         2 · 5  · 5 · 4 = 200
X - even - even - even       2 · 5 ·  4 · 3 = 120 
Finally: 200+ 200 + 200 + 120 = 720 numbers
