A cookie recipe calls for 3 1/3 cups to make 4 dozen cookies you only want toke 24 cookies though how much flour should she use

1 answer:

8 0

1 2/3 because you would divide 3 1/3 by 4 which would give you 5/6 then just multiply that by 2 because 24 cookies is 2 dozen and it would be 1 2/3 cups. Hope this helps

You go to an arcade and purchase a card with game credits. After playing 5 games you have 33 credits left. You play 4 more games

Amanda [17]

Answer:

$y=-3x+48$

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use slope-intercept form of equation to write our equation. The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is: $y=mx+b$ , where m= Slope of the line, b= y-intercept.

To write the equation that represents the number of credits y on the cards after x games, we will find slope of our line.

We have been given that after playing 5 games we have 33 credits left. We play 4 more games and we have 21 credits left. So our points will be (5,33) and (9,21).

Let us substitute coordinates of our both given points in slope formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ ,

$m=\frac{21-33}{9-5}$

$m=\frac{-12}{4}=-3$

Now let us substitute m=-3 and coordinates of point (5,33) in slope intercept form of equation to find y-intercept.

$33=-3\cdot 5+b$

$33=-15+b$

$33+15=b$

$48=b$

Upon substituting m=-3 and b=48 in slope-intercept form of an equation we will get,

$y=-3x+48$

Therefore, our desired equation will be $y=-3x+48$ .

a company owns two dealerships, both of which sell cars and trucks. the first dealership sells a total of 164 cars and trucks. t

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

294 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of cars and y be the number of trucks.

We have been given that the first dealership sells a total of 164 cars and trucks. We can represent this information as:

$x+y=164...(1)$

The second dealership sells twice as many cars and half as many trucks as the first dealership. So the number of cars sold by 2nd dealership will be 2x and number of trucks sold by 2nd dealership will be y/2.

Further, the 2nd dealership sold a total of 229 cars and trucks. We can represent this information as:

$2x+\frac{y}{2}=229...(2)$
