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

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you rearrange the equation in b, you get

y=5(x-3)+15

This means that your f(1) is equal to f(3), or 15, and for each additional month, it increases by 5, which is what the table shows.

<h2><u>Part A</u>: He started with 4 miles. </h2>

<u>Explanation Part A</u>:    51.664 = (x((1.2⁷)-1)) / 0.2

<h2>
<u>Part B</u>: The equation is 51.664 = (x(1.2⁷)-1)/0.2</h2>

<u>Explanation</u>: n = 7 and on day 7 he traveled 51.664 so Sn = 51.664.

We get the second part of the equation because each day is increased by 20% so we have r = (1.2x) / x = 1.2

So our top half will be x multiplied by ((1.2)⁷-1) because it's the 7th day and we are increasing by 1.2x - 1.

Our bottom half is 1.2 - 1 which equals 0.2

<h2><u>Part C</u> : 103.83 miles</h2>

<u>Explanation: </u> We now have x which is 4 so we plug x into the equation above and remove the 51.664. We also change the 1.2⁷ to 1.2¹⁰ because it's the 10th day not the 7th.

Our equation now looks like (4(1.2¹⁰)-1) / 0.2 which is equal to 103.83 miles.
