He can make 32 sandwiches. Since he uses 1/8 pound of cheese for each sandwich, he can make 8 sandwiches using 1 pound of cheese (1/8 x 8 = 1). Now that you know he can make 8 sandwiches with 1 pound of cheese, multiply 8 (this is the sandwiches) by 4 (pounds of cheese).
Answer:
The answer to your question is $1.29
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Total amount of cupcakes = 50
Total amount of sugar = 3 1/2 cups = 3.5 cups
Cost of 5-pound bag = $3.69
2 cups = 1 pound
Total cost = ?
Process
1.- Calculate the amount of pounds needed
2 cups ------------------ 1 pound
3.5 cups --------------- x
x = (3.5 x 1) / 2
x = 3.5 / 2
x = 1.75 pounds
2.- Calculate the price of 1.75 pounds
5 pounds -------------- $3.69
1.75 pounds ---------- x
x = (1.75 x 3.69)/5
x = 6.46/5
x = $1.29
3.- Conclusion
The cost of sugar to prepare 50 cupcakes is $1.29

Answer:
w = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
9(w - 9) -2 = -7 + 7(w -8)
Expand:
9w - 81 - 2 = -7 + 7w - 56
Rearrange:
9w - 7w = -7 - 56 + 81 + 2
2w = 20
w = 10
