Jamil has already 6 3/4 cups of butter.
He need 12. SO in order to get the needed butter, we subtract 6 3/4 to 12.
= 12 - 6 3/4
= 11 4/4 - 6 3/4
= 5 1/4
So Jamil needs 5 1/4 cups of butter to achieve the 12 cups.
No those two fractions are not proportional.
25 times 20 = 500
70 times 8 = 560
500 and 560 are not equal so therefore the fractions are not proportional. Hope this helps!

That is really sweet. AWWWWWWWWWW
Step-by-step explanation:
Everyone is loved including you.
1). Since you have -2y and 4y, elimination is easy to do for solving for x..
Keep the first equation and multiply the second equation by 2. Then add.
5x - 2y = -1
8x + 4y = 56
10x - 4y = -2
8x + 4y = 56
-----------------
18x = 54
x = 3
Now we can use substitution to solve for y.
Substitute 3 for x in the first original equation and solve for y.
5x - 2y = -1
5(3) - 2y = -1
15 - 2y = -1
-2y = -16
y = 8
(3, 8)
2.)
3x - y = =16
-4x - y = 21
Multiply both sides of the first equation by -1 to change all signs. Then when you add the equations, you eliminate y and solve for x.
-3x + y = 16
-4x - y = 21
-----------------
-7x = 37
x = -37/7
Now multiply the first original equation by 4 and the second original by 3 to eliminate x and solve for y.
12x - 4y = -64
-12x - 3y = 63
---------------------
-7y = -1
y = 1/7
Solution: (-37/7, 1/7)
