ANSWER: 41.66666666666667 = x. Or in a fraction, 41 6/9 = x.

STEP BY STEP:

We know that you want to earn $500. So left start by putting that As our total in the equation.

500=

Next, we know that each pie is $12. To finish our equation we will put 12 next to a variable to put 12 standing for the cost and x (our chosen variable) for the number of pies. Put this next to the equal sign.

500 = 12x

Finally, we want to know how many pies you have to sell. Let's get x by itself. Do this by diving 12 on both sides.

500 ➗12 = 12x ➗12

This leaves us with
41.66666666666667 = x. Or in a fraction, 41 6/9 = x.

Directly proportional means if x has a certain value, y should have the same value. but here in the graph, when x is 0, y has a value greater than 0. for x and y to be directly proportional, the line should go through 0.

A baker makes apple tarts and apple pies each day. Each tart, t, requires 1 apple, and each pie, p, requires 8 apples. The baker
Lynna [10]
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
 We have then:
 t: number of tarts
 p: number of pies
 We now write the system of equations:
 Each tart, t, requires 1 apple, and each pie, p, requires 8 apples. The baker receives a shipment of 184 apples every day:
 8p + t ≤ 184
 the baker makes no more than 40 tarts per day:
 t ≤ 40
 Answer:
 A system of inequalities that can be used to find the possible number of pies and tarts the baker can make is:
 D. t ≤ 40
 8p + t ≤ 184

  • 48 cups.
  • 48 cups.
  • 8
  • 8 cups of frozen strawberry.

<h3>What does the table on the punch recipe show?</h3>

3 gallons of punch in cups is:

= 16 cups per gallon x 3 gallons

= 48 cups

The amount that Chandra should multiply each ingredient by is:

= 48 cups / 6 cups per recipe

= 8

The number of cups of frozen strawberries needed is:

= 8 x 1

= 8 cups
