Answer:

It takes 13\frac{1}{8} teaspoons of baking powder to make 5 dozen jumbo muffins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two quantities a and b are directly proportional if when multiplying or dividing one of them by a number, the other is multiplied or divided by that number. That is, if one magnitude grows, the other will grow in the same proportion; while if one magnitude decreases, the other will decrease in the same proportion.

The simple rule of three allows us to establish the relationship of proportionality between two known values ​​and, based on the knowledge of a third quantity, to calculate the value of the fourth.

In other words, it is necessary to know two magnitudes that will be proportional to each other, and a third magnitude, from which you want to find out, will be a fourth term through the relationship:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

Then: x=\frac{c*b}{a}

where a, b, and c are the known data, and x is the fourth unknown.

In this case, the rule of three can be applied as follows: if 1 dozen contains 12 muffins, 5 dozen jumbo muffins, how many muffins does it contain?

amount of jumbo muffins=\frac{5 dozen*12 jumbo muffins}{1 dozen}

amount of jumbo muffins= 60

Now you apply the following rule of three: if 8 jumbo blueberry muffins requires 1 3/4 ( or, which is the same, 7/4)teaspoons of baking powder, 60 jumbo muffins how many teaspoons of baking powder does it require?

teaspoons of baking powder=\frac{60*\frac{7}{4} }{8}

teaspoons of baking powder= \frac{105}{8} = 13\frac{1}{8}

<u><em>It takes </em></u>13\frac{1}{8}<u><em> teaspoons of baking powder to make 5 dozen jumbo muffins.</em></u>

:) Brainliest pls?

Answer:

f(x) * g(x) = -35x^3 - 59x^2 - 74x - 72

Step-by-step explanation:

If f(x) = 7x+9 ang g(x) = -5x^2 - 2x - 8, then

f(x) * g(x) will be:

(7x+9)(-5x^2 - 2x -8)

f(x) * g(x) = -35x^3 - 59x^2 - 74x - 72
