Answer:
C. 15
Step-by-step explanation:
The following proportional can be set-up for the figure given:
Solve for x
Cross multiply
15 = 6x - 5x
15 = x
x = 15
Flour : sugar = (1/3) : (1/5) = 5 : 3 . . . . . . . . multiply the first ratio by 15 to eliminate fractions
The total of ratio units in the last representation is 5+3=8, so for a recipe of 16 cups, each ratio unit will stand for 16/8 = 2 cups.
Multiplying the ratio by 2 cups, we find Amanda will need
... 10 cups flour : 6 cups sugar
for her recipe.
Answer:
28 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w stand for the number of miles Derrick runs each week. Then after 4 weeks of training, he wants the total mileage to be 100 miles.
16 + 3w = 100
3w = 84 . . . . . . . subtract 16
w = 28 . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Derrick will run 28 miles each week to achieve his training goal.
