Answer:

4.5 cups of tomatoes should be combined with 1.5 cups of bell peppers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the salsa is made with 6 parts tomato and 2 parts bell pepper.

Let t be tomatoes and b be bell peppers

The proportion will be:

t:b

The ratio of tomatoes to bell pepper will be:

6:2

This ratio simplifies to 3:1

This means no matter how much more the tomatoes and peppers are, the simplified ratio will be same.

Now the bell peppers are 1.5 cups then the proportion will be:

t:b::t:b\\6:2::t:1.5\\\frac{6}{2} = \frac{t}{1.5}\\3 = \frac{t}{1.5}\\t = 1.5 * 3\\t =4.5

Hence,

4.5 cups of tomatoes should be combined with 1.5 cups of bell peppers.

What is the equation for the graph shown below?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: D

Explanation:

Since we don't know the y-value of the vertex, let's do this an easy way: plugging in.

Let's use the y intercept since that would be the easiest. Since x=0, the terms with x cancel, and you will get a leading result of -5

A) results in 2, so eliminate it

B) results in -2, so eliminate it

C) results in 5, so eliminate it

D) results in -5, so keep it

Since D was the only one that worked, that is our correct answer.

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

340/25 = 13.6 = 13 hours and 10 min

30 x 13.6 = 408 hours

25x+30y= 340 and y=2x can be used to determine the number of hours cooper worked and the number of hours isaiah worked. Where x Isaiah 's working hours and y is cooper's working hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Isaiah ironing rate per hour = 25 shirts

Cooper ironing rate per hour = 30 shirts

Total shirts pressed = 340

Let,

Isaiah´s number of hours = x

Cooper's number of hours = y

According to given statement;

25x+30y=340   Eqn 1

Hudson worked twice many hours as grace.

y = 2x    Eqn 2
