1. You need to make a proportion
2. Your proportion would be 8 over 10 equals X over 15
3. Your equation would be 10x=15(8)
4. 15x8=125
5. 10x=125
6. you would divide 125 by 10
7. thats your answer
Proportional:
4/7 and 10/17.5
2/3 and 9/12
18/8 and 9/4
NOT proportional:
3/8 and 6/141
7/5 and 27/50
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
8 units separate -4 and 4
8 divided by 2 (which is the x of slope) is four
Four times 1 (which is y of slope) equals four
3+4 equals seven
(4,7)
<u>12 cups oil </u>= <u> 1</u><u>8 cups oil</u><u> </u>
x 72 cups popcorn
Use cross multiplication and division to solve for x.
12 cups oil x 72 cups popcorn = 864
864/18 cups oil = 48 cups of popcorn
