0.75 cups of flour to 1 cup of sugar.

Step-by-step explanation: From the question, we are informed that a recipe calls for 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar and told to calculate the unit rate.

It simply means what we need to calculate much flour to one cup of sugar. This will be:

= 3/4 = 0.75

Therefore, the unit rate will be:

0.75 cups of flour to 1 cup of sugar.

If logb2=x and logb3=y, evaluate the following in terms of x and y:

Alja [10]

$log_b{162} = x + 4y\\\\log_b324 = 2x+4y\\\\log_b\frac{8}{9} = 3x-2y\\\\\frac{log_b27}{log_b16} = 3y-4x$

Solution:

Given that,

$log_b2 = x\\\\log_b3 = y --------(i)$

Use the following log rules

Rule 1: $log_b(ac) = log_ba + log_bc$

Rule 2: $log_b\frac{a}{c} = log_ba - log_bc$

Rule 3: $log_ba^c = clog_ba$

$a) log_b{162}$

Break 162 down to primes:

$162 = 2^1 \times 3^4$

$log_b{162} =log_b 2^1. 3^4\\\\By\ rule\ 1\\\\ log_b{162} = log_b 2^1 +log_b 3^4\\\\By\ rule\ 3\\\\1log_b2 + 4log_b3\\\\1x+4y\\\\x+4y$

Thus we get,

$log_b162 = x + 4y$

$b) log_b 324$

Break 324 down to primes:

$324 = 2^2 \times 3^4$

$log_b324 = log_b 2^2.3^4\\\\By\ rule\ 1\\\\log_b324 = log_b2^2 + log_b3^4\\\\By\ rule\ 3\\\\log_b324 = 2log_b2 + 4log_b3\\\\From\ (i)\\\\log_b324 = 2x + 4y$

$c) log_b\frac{8}{9}$

By rule 2

$log_b\frac{8}{9} = log_b8 - log_b9\\\\log_b\frac{8}{9} = log_b 2^3 - log_b3^2\\\\By\ rule\ 3\\\\log_b\frac{8}{9} = 3 log_b2 - 2log_b3\\\\From\ (i)\\\\log_b\frac{8}{9} = 3x - 2y$

$d) \frac{log_b27}{log_b16}$

By rule 2

$\frac{log_b27}{log_b16} = log_b27 - log_b16\\\\ \frac{log_b27}{log_b16} = log_b3^3 - log_b2^4\\\\By\ rule\ 2\\\\ \frac{log_b27}{log_b16} = 3log_b3 - 4log_b2 \\\\From\ (i)\\\\\frac{log_b27}{log_b16} = 3y - 4x$

Thus the given are evaluated in terms of x and y

The equation to find out the volume in this case is V=x*x*2x, or V=2x^3. Use this we can get that the volumes would be 16, 54, 128, and 250.

worty [1.4K]

Let, the first (smaller) number = x
Larger number = 8x
Then, 8x - x = 70
7x = 70
x = 70/7
x = 10
& 8(10) = 80

In short, Your Numbers would be, 10 & 80

Hope this helps!
