Answer:
6 cups of flour
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
the ratio of the recipe=(1 1/2)/(3/4)
1 1/2=1.5 cups of flour
3/4 stick of butter-------> 0.75 stick of butter
by proportion
1.5/0.75=x/3---------> 3*1.5=0.75*x
x=3*1.5/0.75----------> x=6 cups of flour
Rate (or speed) = distance/time
V1 = 135/3 = 45 mi/h
V2 = 189/3.5 = 54mi/h
Answer:
D 36
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Write the information algebraically</em>
c = 3a
c + a = 48
c = children, a = adults
<em>In the second sentence (in bold), we can replace c with 3a</em>
c + a = 48 → 3a + a = 48
<em>Simplify</em>
3a + a = 48 → 4a = 48 → a = 12 (divide both sides by 4)
<em>We can then substitute or plug in a = 12 into the original equation:</em>
c + a = 48 → c + 12 = 48 → c = 36 (subtract 12 from both sides)
<h3>There are 36 children</h3>
Answer:
1.) The quotient of a number and 2 = x ÷ 2
2.) A number decreased by 2 = x - 2
3.) 2 times a number = 2x
4.) 2 increased by a number = 2 + x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's look for key words hidden in these sentences:
1.) The <u>quotient</u> of a number and 2 = The word quotient refers to division
2.) A number <u>decreased</u> by 2 = The word decreased refers to subtraction
3.) 2 <u>times</u> a number = the word times refers to multiplication
4.) 2 <u>increased</u> by a number = the word increased refers to addition

Answer:
15 yds
Step-by-step explanation:
40 divided by 50 equals 4/5, so the lengths of the other triangle have to match that ratio. 3 fits into 12 four times and 15 five times, which makes it a four to five ratio.
