Answer:
a) 19 batches
b) $0.18
Step-by-step explanation:
A 4-pound bag of sugar contains 4 54 one-teaspoon servings and costs $3.49. A batch of muffins uses 1/2 cup of sugar.
1 cup = 48 teaspoons
a) How many whole batches can you make if you use as much of the sugar as possible?
1 batch = 1/2 cups of sugar = 24 teaspoons of sugar
Hence,
24 teaspoons of sugar = 1 batch
454 one-teaspoon servings = x
Cross Multiply
24 × x = 1 × 454
x = 454/24
x = 18.9166666667
Approximately to whole batches = 19 batches
b) What is the cost of sugar for each batch?
454 one-teaspoon servings and costs $3.49 = 19 batches
Hence
19 batches = $3.49
1 batch = x
x= $3.49/19
x = $0.18368421052
Approximately = $0.18
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+2=22
5x=22-2
5x=20
x=20/5
x=4
Answer:
26,664 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a proportion to solve this...
33 inches is to 1.25 miles as 'x' inches is to 1,010 miles
33/1.25 = x/1,010 now solve for x by cross multiplying
33,330 = 1.25x
33,330/1.25 = x
26,664 = x
