Question

A recipe requires 3 cups of milk for every 4 cups of flour. Write a linear equation that describes the relationship.

Answer 1

Answer: $y=\dfrac{3}{4}x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3 cups of milk are required for 4 cups of flour

Suppose there are x cups of milk and y cups of flour

So, according to the question

$\Rightarrow 3x=4y\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{3}{4}x$

The above equation represents the linear equation.
