Answer:
4/5 cups to make 1 pound of dog treats
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 cups : 1 1/4 pounds
x cups : 1 pound
Cross multiply
3/4 * 1 = 1 1/4 * x
x = 3/4 / 1 1/4
= 3/4 / 5/4
= 3/4 * 4/5
= 3/5 cups
Maria needs to save $187.50 per month in order to attend college.
First, subtract the $1,100 scholarship from the cost of college, or $10,100, to get $9,000. This is the amount that she needs to save after 4 years. Next, since she is saving monthly, we need to know how many monthly periods are in 4 years, so multiply 12 months/year by 4 years to get 48 monthly periods. Finally, divide the total amount needed ($9,000) by the monthly periods (48) to get $187.50. This answer would change if she earned any interest on her savings, and depending on the compounding period, if any, for such interest.

Step-by-step explanation:
, if x = -1
A). |x| = |-x|
This is always true.
The definition of 'absolute' value is 'size of the number without its sign'.
That's what this expression says.
b). |x| = -|x|
This is never true, because an absolute value is never negative.
This one would true if x=0 . So maybe some people might say
it's sometimes true, but that doesn't feel right to me. I say never.
c). |-x| = -|x|
This looks to me like exactly the same situation as (b),
and I would say all the same things about it.
