Let x be the amount of cocoa you use in the recipe.

then 4x is the amount of flour used, and 5x is the amount sugar used.

x+4x+5x= 550g
10x=550g
x=55g

So, you use 55g of cocoa, 220g of flour, and 275g of sugar. 

hope this helps! :)

If x= (a^2)/b, which situation would always double the value of x? (1) Doubling the value of a (2) Halving the value of a (3) Do
MariettaO [177]
(4) Halving the value of b

Example #1:
a = 4 , b = 2
x = (4^2) / 2
x = 16 / 2
x = 8
a = 4 , b = 1
x = (4^2) / 1
x = 16 / 1
x = 16

Example #2:
a = 8 , b = 4
x = (8^2) / 4
x = 64 / 4
x = 16
a = 8 , b = 2
x = (8^2) / 2
x = 64 / 2
x = 32

Find the greatest common factor of these three expressions.
leva [86]
6x

42/6 = 7 (valid), 18/6 = 3 (valid), 12/6 = 2 (valid)

7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 are all not divisible by 12, and 12 is not divisible by 18, so 6 is the highest number.

Also, each number has at least one x, so you can take one out.

Remaining=
6x (7 + 3x^2 + 2x^3)
