Answer:

20 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

Cups of sugar in a bag = 15

Cups of sugar per batch of cookie = 3/4 cup

Cups of sugar per batch of cookie : batch of cookies = 3/4 : 1

what's the greatest number of batches of cookies that can be made with the bag of sugar

Let

x = batches of cookies made with a bag of sugar

Cups of sugar per batch of cookie : batch of cookies = 15 : x

Equate the ratios

3/4 : 1 = 15 : x

3/4 ÷ 1 = 15/x

3/4 × 1/1 = 15/x

3/4 = 15/x

Cross product

3 * x = 4 * 15

3x = 60

x = 60/3

x = 20

x = batches of cookies made with a bag of sugar = 20 batches

Hannah was asked to make d the subject of the formula<br> d-7=4d+3/e<br> Finish her question.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

d = \frac{-1}{e} - \frac{7}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to make d the subject of the formula, you need to isolate it.

- You started with d-7 = 4d + 3/e

- Move 4d to the left side by subtracting 4d from both sides to cancel it from the right so you have...

d - 7 = 4d + 3/e              This will leave you left with -3d - 7 = 3/e

-4d     -4d                          

- Then move over the -7 by adding 7 to both sides...

-3d - 7 = 3/e              This will leave you left with -3d = 3/e + 7

     +7          +7

- Finally to get d by itself divide both sides of the equation by -3 and you'll be left with...

d = \frac{3}{-3e} -\frac{7}{3}

- You can cancel out the 3 in the -3/3e and make it -1/e so your final answer will be

d = \frac{-1}{e} - \frac{7}{3}
