Answer:
x=0.625
Step-by-step explanation:
-(-2x+1)=9-14x
distribute:
2x-1=9-14x
add 1 to both sides
2x = 10-14x
add 14x to both sides
16x=10
divide by 16 to isolate x
x = 0.625
check:
-(-2(0.625)+1) = 9-14(0.625)
0.25 = 0.25
Well what I would do first is to divide 128 by 32 which I do believe gets you 4. So now you know that 1 cup of powder can make 4 servings. So you now know that each serving only requires 1/4 cup of the powder.
So now we know Jeff went over so now we have Jeff added 2/3 and he only needs 1/4. I would now make them both equivalent by multiplying the numerator and denominator of 2/3 by 4 and the same for 1/4 but instead by 4 multiply it by 3 which you would get 2/3=8/12 and 1/4=3/12. Now subtract the two to get your answer.
8/12-3/12=5/12
Answer: He went over and he needs to remove 5/12 of the cup
Check the picture below.
recall that in a square, all sides are equal, so if we make b = a, then we get that for one side, also recall that the area of a rectangle is length*width, so in this case,
