A recipe says that 1 3/4 cups of baking soda are needed to make 1 batch of a homemade cleaning product, as represented below. Ho
RSB [31]

Answer:

4 3/8 cups of baking soda

Step-by-step explanation:

1 3/4 cups of baking soda are needed to make 1 batch of a homemade cleaning product,

Cups of baking soda : batches of homemade cleaning

1 3/4 cups : 1 batch

How many total cups of baking soda I needed to make 2 1/2 batches of the cleaning product?

Let x = total cups of baking soda needed

Cups of baking soda : batches of homemade cleaning

x cups : 2 1/2 batches

Equate the ratios

1 3/4 cups : 1 batch = x cups : 2 1/2 batches

7/4 ÷ 1 = x ÷ 5/2

7/4 × 1/1 = x * 2/5

7/4 = 2/5x

Divide both sides by 2/5

x = 7/4 ÷ 2/5

= 7/4 × 5/2

Cross product

x = 35/8

= 4 3/8 cups of baking soda

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -7) and (-8, 3)?
avanturin [10]

Answer <u>(assuming it can be in slope-intercept form)</u>:

y = -\frac{5}{4} x-7  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, find the slope of the line by using the slope formula, m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}. Substitute the x and y values of the given points into the formula and solve:

m = \frac{(3)-(-7)}{(-8)-(0)}\\m = \frac{3+7}{-8-0} \\m = \frac{10}{-8} \\m = -\frac{5}{4}

So, the slope is -\frac{5}{4}.

2) Now, use the point-slope formula y-y_1 = m (x-x_1) to write the equation of the line in point-slope form. Substitute real values for the m, x_1, and y_1 in the formula.

Since m represents the slope, substitute -\frac{5}{4} in its place. Since x_1 and y_1 represent the x and y values of one point the line intersects, choose any one of the given points (either one is fine, it will equal the same thing at the end) and substitute its x and y values into the formula as well. (I chose (0, -7), as seen below.) Then, isolate y to put the equation in slope-intercept form and find the following answer:

y-(-7) = -\frac{5}{4} (x-(0))\\y + 7 = -\frac{5}{4} x\\y = -\frac{5}{4} x-7

At 3:30 p.m., Berto’s train was 34 miles past the egg farm, traveling at an average speed of 85 miles per hour. At the same time
timurjin [86]

E=egg farm

x=distantce between  the Berto´s trains and the meeting point.

t=time where the trains meet up

⇒110 miles/h                                          ⇒85miles/h

[---------------------------E----------------------]-------------------------------------X

[............12 miles.......][........34 miles.....][------------ x ----------------------]

distance between Berto´s train and Eduardo´s train=

=12 miles+34 miles=46 miles.

S=d/t      ⇒d=S*t

S=seed

d=distance

T=time

Eduardo´s train;

46 miles+x=t*110 miles/h  ⇒x=t*110 miles/h-46 miles  (1)

Berto´s train;

x=t*85 miles/h  (2)

With the equations (1) and (2) we suggest this system equations:

x=t* 110 miles/h-46 miles

x=t*85 miles/h

we solve this system equiations :

t*110 miles/h-46 miles=t*85 miles/h

110t miles/h-85t miles/h=46 miles

25 t miles/h=46 miles

t=46 miles/25 miles/h=1,84 hour  (≈1 hour, 50 minutes, 24 seconds)

x=t*85 miles/h=156,4 miles

Solution: 1,84 hour

Solve for : x 4(x+5)=3(x-2)-2(x+2)
Allushta [10]

Hey there!!

In order to solve this equation, we will have to use the distributive property.

What is distributive property?

We will need to distribute one term to the other terms preset.

Example : 4 ( 3x - 1 )

sing distributive property, we will have to distribute the term outside the parenthesis to the terms inside. In this case, we will have to distribute 4 to 3x and -1

( 4 × 3x ) + ( 4 × -1 )

12x + ( -4 )

= 12x - 4

This is after implementing the distributive property.

Now moving back onto the question

4 ( x + 5 ) = 3 ( x - 2 ) - 2 ( x + 2 )

Let us first solve 4 ( x + 5 )

Distribute 4 to x and 5

( 4 × x ) + ( 4 × 5 )

4x + 20

Now let's solve 3 ( x - 2 )

Distribute 3 to x and -2

( 3 × x ) + ( 3 × - 2 )

3x - 6

Solve for -2 ( x + 2 )

Distribute -2 to x and 2

( -2 × x ) + ( -2 × 2 )

-2x - 4

Now, let's get everything back together

4x + 20 = 3x - 6 - 2x - 4

Combine all the like terms

4x + 20 = x - 10

Adding 10 on both sides

4x + 20 + 10 = x - 10 + 10

4x + 30 = x

Subtracting 4x on both sides

4x - 4x + 30 = x - 4x

30 = -3x

Dividing by -3 on both sides

30 / -3 = -3x / -3

- 10 = x

<h2>x = - 10 </h2><h3>Hope my answer helps!</h3>

There are 7/8 kilograms of salt in the kitchen. Mrs. Jackson used 2/15 of salt when preparing dinner . How much salt did she use
neonofarm [45]

so since Mrs Jackson used 2/15 of 7/8, the amount she used is simply their product.


\bf \stackrel{\textit{how much is }\frac{2}{15}\textit{ of }\frac{7}{8}?}{\cfrac{7}{8}\cdot \cfrac{2}{15}}\implies \cfrac{7}{15}\cdot \cfrac{2}{8}\implies \cfrac{7}{15}\cdot \cfrac{1}{4}\implies \cfrac{7}{60}
