Mathematics

Answer: 24 cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the amount of cups of peaches  that Fred will need to make 60 cups of  fruit salad.

According to the information given in the exercise, you know that the ratio of cups of peaches to cups of cherries is the one shown below:

2:3

Which can also be written as a fraction:

\frac{2}{3}

Then, if he uses 2 cups of peaches and 3 cups of cherries, he will get 5 cups of fruit salad.

Knowing the above, you can set up the following proportion:

\frac{2}{5}=\frac{x}{60}

Now you must solve for "x" in order to find its value. This is:

(60)(\frac{2}{5})=x\\\\x=24

Solve for x.<br><br> log x + log 3 = log 18<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
Makovka662 [10]

log(x) + log(3) = log(18)

log(x) + 0.477121 = 1.255273

Add -0.477121 to both sides.

log(x) + 0.477121 + −0.477121 = 1.255273 + −0.477121

log(x)+0 = 0.778152

Divide both sides by 1.

log(x)+0/1 = 0.778152/1

log(x)=0.778152

Solve Logarithm

log(x) = 0.778152

10log(x) = 100.778152

x = 100.778152

x = 6.00001
