P=x+38

add all individual sides together (is also the perimeter):
p=(x+3)+(x-5)+x+(x-2)+(x-4)+(x-1)+(x-1)
=7x-10

set both p equal:
x+38=7x-10
38=6x-10
48=6x
8=x

then insert x=8 in all the side/perimeter equations:
p=x+38=8+38=46

sides:
x=8
x-2=8-2=6
x-1=8-1=7
x-4=8-4=4
x-5=8-5=3
x+3=8+3=11

Alexandra uses 12 cups of water and 6 cups of dry rice to make 18 cups of cooked rice. Today, she wants to make 4 cups of cooked

LekaFEV [45]

The proportion that Alexandra can use to find r is 9 cups of water and 4 cups of dry rice

If Alexandra uses 12 cups of water and 6 cups of dry rice to make 18 cups of cooked rice, this can be expressed as:

$\frac{12}{6} = 18cups$

To get the proportion "r" for the amount of dry rice to use to make 4 cups of cooked rice, we can write:

$r = 4 cups$

Divide both expressions:

$\dfrac{\frac{12}{6} }{\frac{a}{b} } =\frac{18}{4}\\\dfrac{12b}{6a}= \frac{18}{4}\\\dfrac{2b}{a} =\frac{18}{4}\\\frac{b}{a} =\frac{18}{8}\\\frac{b}{a} =\frac{9}{4} =r$

Hence the proportion that Alexandra can use to find r is 9 cups of water and 4 cups of dry rice

5 kilograms of coffee are going to be shared equally among 4 people.

kherson [118]

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure if this will help but to find out how much coffee 4 people would need you would have to divide 4 into 5 which is 1 1/5

EQUATION-- 4/5= X

I chose that because / means divide 5 into 4 would give you x we don't know what x is until we actually do the problem

Even if im not correct I hope it helped a bit
