Answer: 72 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "s" the amount of sugar in grams that  must be used for 252 grams of coconut to keep the same ratio of coconut to sugar.

Knowing that in the recipe for the coconut cookies, should be 420 grams of coconut and 120 grams of sugar, and you only have 252 grams of coconut, you can set up this proportion to find "s":

\frac{420grams}{120grams}=\frac{252grams}{s}

Now, you need to solve for "s":

\frac{420grams}{120grams}=\frac{252grams}{s}\\\\s(\frac{420grams}{120grams})=252grams\\\\s=(252grams)(\frac{120grams}{420grams})\\\\s=72grams

How do you write range on a graph?
Ratling [72]

The range of a function is the set of all possible outputs.

When the quadratic functions are in standard form, they generally look like this:

f(x) = ax^{2}  + bx + c

If a is positive, the function opens up; if it’s negative, the function opens down. In this form, the y-coordinate of the vertex is found by evaluating f(−\frac{b}{2a}). For example, consider this function:

f(x) = -2x^{2} + 8x -3\\

So we’re gonna do: −b/2a=−8/2(−2)=−8/−4=2

Then, we plug this in:

f(2) = -2(2)^{2} +8(2) -3 = 5

a is negative, so the range is all real numbers less than or equal to 5.
