Answer:

1,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of Sugar to Flour: 5:8 -> 25:40

Ratio of Flour to Baking Soda: 10:1 -> 40:4

Sugar to Flour to Soda: 25x:40x:4x

\frac{40x}{(4x+60)} = \frac{8}{1} -> x = 60

Sugar = 25x = 1,500

Hope this helps :)

O<br> 1) Which below graph represents direct variation?<br> GRAPH A<br> or<br> GRAPH B<br> Why?
Zina [86]

Answer:

Graph B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for direct variation is y=kx, with k being the slope. As you can see from the equation, there is no y-intercept. In graph A, you would add 8; therefore, it does not meet the requirements for direct variation.
