Answer:

1 cups of cereal will be needed

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is given as;

2:3:5

M&M takes 3 while cereal takes 2

This means the ratio of M&M to cereal is 3:2

So let us look at the ratio of the two

3/2 = 1.5/x

= 2 * 1.5 = 3 * x

3x = 3

x = 3/3

x = 1

2. 2x - y = 6,<br> - x + y = -1
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

x = 5

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

just substitute the value of one variable into the other

-x +y = -1

or y = -1 +x   <-------- (i just added x to the right side)

now u know what y is equal to, just substitute that value into the first equation

2x - (-1+x) = 6     <-------- instead of y, i put the value of y from the 2 equation

NOW SOLVE FOR X!

2x +1 -x = 6

x + 1 = 6

x = 5

now solve for y since you have the value of x

y = -1 + x

or y = -1 + 5

y = 4

Los angles is about 385 miles from san francisco. how far apart should the city's be on a map with a scale of 1in=1515mil
klasskru [66]
1 inch=1515 miles
X inches= 385 miles
so 1515 is 3.935 times bigger than 385 miles.
meaning that 1 inch is also 3.935 times bigger than X inches.
to find X we just divide 1 by 3.935
which is: 0.254 inches
