The expression would be: x+8
The equation would be: x+8=
So what I would do is first multiply the mean by 4 and that is the total u need, 146.5, to have a mean of 36 and 5/8. Next I add the lengths given, which is 110.625, and then I would subtract it from 146.5 which is 35.875 which is 35 and 7/8. You can also check the answer by finding the mean of the 4 numbers and determining if it comes out to 36 and 5/8. The answer is C. Hope this helps!
It is 4009.738/!;7 corrects
Let x be the amount of cocoa you use in the recipe.
then 4x is the amount of flour used, and 5x is the amount sugar used.
x+4x+5x= 550g
10x=550g
x=55g
So, you use 55g of cocoa, 220g of flour, and 275g of sugar.
hope this helps! :)
