Answer: 500 pieces of wheat
Explanation:
First: set up the proportion
Cookies:wheat = 8:2
Simplify = 4:1
We need to find how much wheat he needs for 2,000 cookies.
We need to assign a variable for wheat
Wheat = W
If Josh needs to make 2,000 cookies he would need W amount of wheat
Original proportion = 4:1
For 2,000 cookies = 2,000:W
To get from 4 to 2,000
2,000/4 = 500
So W/1 = 500
Isolate the variable:
w/1 (1) = 500/1
W = 500
Step-by-step explanation:
this should show
7+ (xy)=
Step-by-step explanation:
Since <em>a</em> is the final altitude after <em>t</em> minutes, we can plug in 21,000 for <em>a</em> in the given equation.
21,000 = 3400t + 600
Solve for t.
20,400 = 3400t
t = 6 minutes
