Your question appears to be phrased incorrectly. If the ratio of soccer players to football players is 4:1 then for every 1 football player there are 4 soccer players. For example, if there are 3 football players, there would be 12 soccer players.
The equivalent expression would be S = 4F
The statement: "there are 4 more soccer players than football players" is not the same thing. It simply means that we add 4 to the total of football players to find out how many soccer players there are.
The equivalent expression would be S = F + 4
That being said: An equivalent ratio to 4:1 would be 8:2 , 12:3, 16:4, ...
Think of the ratio as a fraction. 4:1 = 4/1
4/1 = 8/2 = 12/3 = 16/4 ..., etc.
Answer:
Hey there! The answer to your question will be below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer to your question is 12x - 24=60
So we know that 12x will be the number of cookies.
It says that she kept two boxes for herself, and than she took away 24 boxes which will leave us with 60.
Here is the work:
12 (x-2)= 60
12x-24=60
So the answer should be 12x -24 = 60
Hope this helps!

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
y-3=5(x-2) (rearrange this to be in slope- intercept from) (add 3 to both sides)
y = 5(x-2) + 3 (distribute parentheses)
y = x(5) - 2(5) + 3
y = 5x -10 + 3
y = 5x - 7
recall that for a line with gradient m, the gradient of the perpendicular line will be - (1/m)
hence in our case, our gradient of the original line is 5, hence the gradient of the perpendicular line is -1/5
From the choices, the only one that is consistent with this is C
i.e choice C:
5y + x = 25
5y = -x + 25
y = -(1/5) x + 5 ===> gradient of -1/5
For this case we propose a system of equations:
x: Represents the amount of small popcorn tubs
y: Represents the amount of large popcorn tubs
According to the data we have to:
(Spending all the money in your wallet)
(Buying 7 popcorn tubs)
From the second equation we have:
Substituting in the first equation:
Thus, Katie can buy 3 large tubs of popcorn.
So:
In addition, you can buy 4 small tubs of popcorn.
Answer:
3 large popcorn tubs.
4 small popcorn tubs.
