8 goes with 3/5: 10 goes with n (n being the number of cups)
Use cross products and we get 8n = 6
Now divide by 8
<u>8n</u> = <u>6
</u><u />8 8
n= 6/8 or 3/4 of a cup of flour.
Answer:
y = 3/4x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
to put it into slope intercept form, you need to find the y intercept or b becasue the slope intercept form is y = mx + b where b is the y intercetpt and m is the slope. To find b you insert the points you were given so 1 = -4(3/4) + b
which simplifies to 4 = b so then you can put in your slope and y intercept into slope intercept form
Y=-3x+1 because in the points the equation will be y+2=-3(x-1) this converted into slope intercept form is y=-3(x-1)
Okay, so, to find out if an equation has one solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solutions, we must first solve the equation:
(a) 6x + 4x - 6 = 24 + 9x
First, combine the like-terms on both sides of the equal sign:
10x - 6 = 24 + 9x
Now, we need to get the numbers with the variable 'x,' on the same side, by subtracting, in this case:
10x - 6 = 24 + 9x
-9x. -9x
______________
X - 6 = 24
Now, we do the opposite of subtraction, and add 6 to both sides:
X - 6 = 24
+6 +6
_________
X = 30
So, this particular equation has one solution.
(a). One solution
_____________________________________________________
(b) 25 - 4x = 15 - 3x + 10 - x
Okay, so again, we combine the like-terms, on the same side of the equal sign:
25 - 4x = 25 - 2x
Now, we get the 2 numbers with the variable 'x,' to the same side of the equal sign:
25 - 4x = 25 - 2x
+ 2x + 2x
________________
25 - 2x = 25
Next, we do the opposite of addition, and, subtract 25 on each side:
25 - 2x = 25
-25 -25
___________
-2x = 0
Finally, because we can't divide 0 by -2, this tells us that this has an infinite number of solutions.
(b) An infinite number of solutions.
__________________________________________________
(c) 4x + 8 = 2x + 7 + 2x - 20
Again, we combine the like-terms, on the same side as the equal sign:
4x + 8 = 4x - 13
Now, we get the 'x' variables on the same side, again, and, we do that by doing the opposite of addition, which, is subtraction:
4x + 8 = 4x - 13
-4x -4x
______________
8 = -13
Finally, because there is no longer an 'x' or variable, we know that this equation has no solution.
(c) No Solution
