James has a recipe that uses 1 1/2 cups of brown and 2 1/3 cups of flour to make 24 muffins. He has a total of 7 cups of sugar.
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Part A:  James needs 10 1/2 cups of sugar if he uses all 7 cups of flour                        

Part B: James will make 72 muffins if he uses all 7 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

*I had an easier time figuring out part B before I figured out part A

PART B:

If the original recipe uses 2 1/3 cups of flour, and James has 7 cups of flour, I started off by dividing 7 by 2 1/3 to see how many times we can get 2 1/3 cups out of 7 cups. 7 divided by 2 1/3 = 3. Now that we know we can get 3 cups out of  2 1/3 cups, we need to multiply 3 by 24 to find out how many muffins James will get. 24 * 3 = 72

James will get 72 muffins by using 7 cups of flour.

PART A: Now we know that James is making 72 muffins. We need to find out how many cups of sugar James needs. To do that we can multiply 1 1/2 cups by 7. The product is 10 1/2 cups of sugar. Now we know that James needs 10 1/2 cups of flour if he uses all 7 cups of flour.

Hope this helps!!

The figure shown is a rectangle. If you draw a new rectangle in which the dimensions are doubled, what is the relationship betwe
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

L = 5

w = 3

Formula

Area = L*w

Solution

Area = 3 * 5

Area = 15

Now double both the width and the Length.

New Length = 2*5 = 10

New Width = 2 * 3 = 6

Area = New Length * New Width

Area = 10 * 6

Area = 60

Answer (look at the choices)

The old rectangle has an area of 15. The new Rectangle has an area of 60. If you double 15, do you get 60. No, so the answer is not A

The new rectangle is 60. If you halve it, do you get 15. No so the answer is Not B

C is the answer

D is you multiply 8 * 15, do you get 60? No so the answer is not D

Is negative 1 greater than -1/2
Maurinko [17]

Answer: No, -1 is not greater than -1/2

Step-by-step explanation: -1 is a integer and -1/2 is a fraction so if your question is "Is negative 1 greater than -1/2?" than your answer will be no because -1/2 is a fraction and -1 is a integer. They don't equal.
