Answer:

B. 8 batches of cookies

Step-by-step explanation:  

We need to solve for x.

5 1/3 = 16/3

Use proportions to solve

2/3 cups = 1 batch of cookies

16/3 cups = x

Use cross multiplication

2/3 × x = 16 /3

2x/ 3 = 16/3

Multiply each side of the equation

2/3 × 3/2 x = 16/3 × 3/2

6x /6 = 48 / 6

x = 8

Answer: 8 batches
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the number of batches she made, we can just use proportion to solve it. But first, we need to convert 5 1/3 to improper fraction
5 1/3 = 16/3
Then we can now use the proportion to solve
2/3 cups = 1 batch
16/3 cups = x (note:5 1/3=16/3)
cross multiply
2/3 × x = 16 /3
2x/ 3 = 16/3
we need to make x the subject of the formula, to do that we will multiply each side of the equation by 3/2
2/3 × 3/2 x = 16/3 × 3/2
6x /6 = 48 / 6
x = 8
Therefore she made 8 batches of cookies.

1 . Solve 4x + 5 > 5x − 2 for x.
Kobotan [32]

I will do number 1 only. You can then use my solution steps to do the rest.

Solve 4x + 5 > 5x − 2 for x.

4x + 5 > 5x − 2

4x - 5x > - 2 - 5

-x > -7

Dividing both sides by a negative number reverses the inequality sign. In other words, the sign > becomes < in the reply.

-x/-1 < -7/-1

x < 7

Answer: x < 7

The answer here means that whatever the value of x is for question 1, it must be less than 7.

You finish.
