Answer:
2 cups of peanut butter
Step-by-step explanation:
Mrs. Carter's famous peanut butter cookies call for 1 cup of peanut butter for every 1/2 of a cup of oil. Today, she wants to make a huge batch with 1 cup of oil. How much peanut butter should she use?
From the above question:
1/2 cup of oil = 1 cup of peanut butter
1 cup of oil = x
Cross Multiply
1/2x = 1 × 1
x = 1 ÷ 1/2
x = 1 × 2/1
x = 2 cups of peanut butter.
Therefore, for huge batch with 1 cup of oil, she should use 2 cups of peanut butter.
Answer:
3 and 28
Step-by-step explanation:
note (
)(x ) = 
= 
and
( )(4) = 
= 
= 
= 3
-------------------------------------------------------
(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)
f(x) + g(x)
= x² + 2x - 3 + x² - 9 = 2x² + 2x - 12 and
(f + g)(4) = 2(4)² + 2(4) - 12 = 2(16) + 8 - 12 = 32 + 8 - 12 = 28
Given the expression below
To find n
Open the brackets
Collect like terms
Since, the sides are not equal,
Hence, there is no solution

Step-by-step explanation:
<span>A) How many cups of flour are there per serving?
</span>1 ½ cups of flour --------<span>6 servings
? cups of flour ------- 1 serving
</span>1 ½
------------
6
= 3/2 x 1/6
= 1/4
answer: 1/4 cups of flour per serving
<span>B) how many total cups of sugar(white and brown) are there per serving?
</span>total white and brown: <span>2/3 + 1/3 = 3/3 = 1 cups (combine)
1 cup of sugar (white and brown) </span>--------6 servings
? cups of sugar (white and brown) ------ 1 serving
1
----- = 1/6
6
answer: 1/6 cups of sugar (white and brown) per serving
<span> (c) Suppose you modify the recipe so that it makes 9 servings. How much more flour do you need for the modified recipe than you need for the original recipe?
</span>
3/2 cups of flour --------6 servings
? cups of flour -----------9 servings
9 * 3/2
-----------
6
= (13 1/2) / 6
= 2 1/4
2 1/4 ( 9 servings) - 1 1/2(6 servings) = 3/4 cups
answer: you need 3/4 more cups of flour
