Pounds of beef and potatoes are in ratio or proportion of
.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Correct Question: A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes. The recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes. Which proportion represents the situation?
We have , A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes , i.e.
Number of beef stew calls = 1
Number of potatoes = 3
Now , The recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes i.e. for every 2 pounds of beef we have 6 potatoes
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Therefore , Pounds of beef and potatoes are in ratio or proportion of
.
Answer:
There are 8 true/false questions and 26 fill-in-the-blank questions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "t" be the number of 2-point true/false questions and "f" the number of 5-point fill-in-the-blank questions.
Mrs. Simmons gave a history test worth 92 points. Symbollically,
2 t + 5 f = 92 [1]
There were a total of 34 questions in the test. Symbollicaly,
t + f = 34
t = 34 - f [2]
If we replace [2] in 1, we get
2 (34 - f) + 5 f = 92
68 - 2 f + 5 f = 92
3 f = 24
f = 8
We replace f = 8 in [2],
t = 34 - 8 = 26
There are 8 true/false questions and 26 fill-in-the-blank questions.
