A recipe calls for 4 cups of pecans for every 5 cups of walnuts. How many cups of pecans should be added to 8 cups of walnuts?

1 answer:

8 0

4 cups of pecans = 5 cups of walnuts
x cups of pecans = 8 cups of walnuts

CROSS MULTIPLY
4*8 =5x
5x = 32

DIVIDE BOTH SIDES BY 5

5x/5 = 32/5
x=6.4

Therefore, 6.4 cups of pecans would be added to 8 cups of walnuts

Enter the number that belongs in the green box.

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

the green box is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

we are asked to find the <u>x-intercept</u>, which means y = 0

(x, y)

Another way to test this is plug it in 1 for x! (1, y) where x = 1

$y = \frac{2x^{2} -3x+1}{2x^{2} +8x+6} \\\\$

$y = \frac{2(1)^{2} -3(1)+1}{2(1)^{2} +8(1)+6}$

$y = \frac{2(1) -3(1)+1}{2(1) +8+6}$

$y = \frac{2 - 3 + 1}{2 + 8 + 6}$

$y = \frac{-1+1}{10 + 6}$

$y = \frac{0}{16}$

y = 0
