Answer: 2.5 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/2 cup makes 24 cookies, and you need 72, divide 72 by 24 and u get 3. So since 72 is 3 things of 24, you multiply 1/2 by 3 which means you need to use 2.5 cups to make 72 cookies.

Find the value of x<br> A.)25<br> B.)140<br> C.)5<br> D.)1
Vlada [557]

Answer:

25 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles are vertical angles and vertical angles are equal

5x+15 = 6x -10

Subtract 5x from each side

5x-5x+15 = 6x-5x -10

15 = x - 10

Add 10 to each side

15+10 = x-10+10

25 = x

One morning, John drive 5 hours before stopping to eat. After lunch, he. increased his speed by 10 mph. If he completed a 500-mi
Marrrta [24]
So  he drove 5hrs, before lunch, now, he was going at speed, say "r", after he ate, he sped up by 10mph, so, his rate is whatever "r" is, plus 10, or " r + 10 ", after lunch

we know the whole trip took 10hrs, so, is 5hrs before lunch and 5hrs after lunch

we also know the whole trip was 500miles, so if he drove, say "d" miles before lunch, after lunch he drove the slack after lunch, or " 200 - d "

recall, your d = rt, distance = rate * time

\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&distance&rate&time\\&#10;&-----&-----&-----\\&#10;\textit{before lunch}&d&r&5\\&#10;\textit{after lunch}&500-d&r+10&5&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;\boxed{d}=5r\\&#10;500-d=(r+10)5\\&#10;----------\\&#10;500-\boxed{5r}=(r+10)5&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{500-5r}{5}=r+10\implies 100-r=r+10

and I'm sure you know what that is
