Answer:
9/16 Cup of Brown Sugar
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert the 3/8 Cups of Brown Sugar to 6/16 to make division easier.
So for every 2/3 Cup of White Sugar you use 6/16 Cup of Brown Sugar.
So 1/3 a Cup of White Sugar would use 3/16 a Cup of Brown Sugar.
So 3/3 or 1 Cup of White Sugar would use 9/16 a Cup of Brown Sugar
Answer:
What?
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>2x + 8 = 6 - x
2x + x = 6 - 8
3x = -2
x = -2/3
</span>
6x-3y=3
-2x+6y=14.
First step is multiply the top equation by 2, so you have
12x-6y=6
-2x+6y=14
-6y and +6y cancel each other out, so if you simplify, you have
10x=20, which is then solved by dividing each side by 10, and getting x=2.
Now plug x=2 into one of the equations (I chose the first)
6(2)-3y=3
12-3y=3
-3y=-9, divide each side by -3 and get y=3.
so your point is (2,3)
STEP 1:
convert gallons to cups & calculate total number of cups
1 gallon= 16 cups
= 8 gallons * 16 cups/gallon
= 128 cups total
STEP 2:
calculate total cups estimated for 20 guests
= 20 guests * 2 cups/guest
= 40 cups needed for guests
STEP 3:
subtract the difference between step 1 and step 2 to find leftover punch
= 128 cups - 40 cups
= 88 cups leftover
OR
GALLONS LEFTOVER
= 88 ÷ 16 cups/gallon= 5 1/2 gallons
ANSWER: There will be 88 cups or 5 1/2 gallons of punch leftover.
Hope this helps! :)
