Answer:
The number of cups = 8 ....
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of cups
Let y be the number of plates
According to the given statement:
y=2x-4 This is equation 1
Now,
60% = 0.60
y=0.60(x+y) This is equation 2
Now substitute equation 1 in equation 2.
y=0.60(x+y)
2x-4=0.60(x+2x-4)
2x-4=0.6x+1.2x-2.4
Solve the like terms:
2x-4=1.8x-2.4
2x-1.8x=4-2.4
0.2x=1.6
x=1.6/0.2
x= 8 cups
Therefore the number of cups = 8 ....
