Answer:

  • 7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>This is going to be an arithmetic progression:</u>

  • 48500, 48500 + 1200, 48500 + 1200*2, ...

<u>So the first term is </u>

  • a₁ = 48500

<u>and the common difference is </u>

  • d = 1200

<u>Sum of AP is:</u>

  • S = (a₁ + aₙ)*n/2 = (2a₁ + (n - 1)d)*n/2

<u>Substitute and solve for n:</u>

  • (2*48500 + (n - 1)*1200)*n/2 = 321000
  • (97000 + 1200n - 1200)n = 642000
  • 1200n² + 95800n - 642000 = 0
  • 6n² + 479n - 3210 = 0

<u>Solving we get a positive root of:</u>

  • n ≈ 6.21 and it rounds up to 7 years

Answer:

4 cups of sugar require 14 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{7}{8}\ cup\ flour = \frac{1}{4}\ cup\ sugar

Required

Determine the cups of flour for 4 cups of sugar

First, we need to determine the unit rate for 1 cup of sugar.

This is done by multiplying both sides by 4

4 * \frac{7}{8}\ cup\ flour = \frac{1}{4}\ cup\ sugar * 4

\frac{7}{2}\ cup\ flour = 1\ cup\ sugar

Next, we determine cup of flour for 4 cups of sugar.

This is done by multiplying both sides by 4

4 * \frac{7}{2}\ cup\ flour = 1\ cup\ sugar * 4

2 * 7\ cup\ flour = 4\ cup\ sugar

14\ cup\ flour = 4\ cup\ sugar

<em>Hence;4 cups of sugar require 14 cups of sugar</em>
