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! :)
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 5 to both sides to get
3x-5+5=-11+5
and simplify to get
3x = -6
x = -2
Given that the triangles are similar.
When triangles are similar, all three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
Similarly in the given triangles, the ratio of the corresponding sides are equal.
Cross multiplying, we get
Dividing both sides of the equation by -4.
So, we get
x = 7.
Simply add up all.
4 1/2 + 6 2/3 + 9 1/4
(4 + 6 + 9) + 1/2 + 2/3 + 1/4
19 6/12 + 8/12 + 3/12 = (6+8+3)/12 = 17/12
19 17/12
19 1 5/12
19 + 1 5/12
= 20 5/12
20 5/12 yards was purchased.
