The ounces of chocolate chips used by Mrs Jacob is 70 ounce

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Jacob is making several batches of cookies and is using 84 total ounces of chips

Let "c" be the ounces of chocolate chips

Let "p" be the ounces of peanut butter chips

To find: ounces of chocolate chips used by Mrs Jacob

Given that There are 5 times as many ounces of chocolate chips as peanut butter chips

<em><u>Thus we can frame a equation as:</u></em>

ounces of chocolate chips = 5 x ounces of peanut butter chips

c = 5p -------- eqn 1

Jacob used 84 total ounces of chip. Therefore,

ounces of chocolate chips + ounces of peanut butter chips = 84

c + p = 84 ---- eqn 2

Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2

5p + p = 84

6p = 84

<h3>p = 14</h3>

Substitute p = 14 in eqn 1

c = 5(14) = 70

<h3>c = 70</h3>

Thus the ounces of chocolate chips used by Mrs Jacob is 70 ounce

patriot [66]

Answer:

48,58

Step-by-step explanation:

Let The speed of the west bound train be x

Let the east bound train be x+10

The speeds can be calculated as follows

2(2x+10)= 232

4x + 40= 232

4x= 232-40

4x= 192

x= 192/4

= 48

Hence the speedof the west bound train is 48

The speed of the east bound train is 48+10

= 58

irinina [24]
Sorry for the hand writing. But you want to factor out a 4y^2 which will result in (9y^2-1). Then you will factor out the equation in parentheses to (3y-1)(3y+1). Don’t forget to put the 4y^2 out front!
