Alicia is making cupcakes for a party she is having and wants to make sure everyone gets at least 1 cupcake

the recipe calls for 1/2 teaspoon of salt for every batch and each batch makes 21 cupcakes if the part will have a total of 84 people attending how many teaspoon of salt will alicia need.

Let's imagine that x is the number of teaspoon of salt needed to make at least 84 cupcakes.

So we know that, 1 batch makes 21 cupcakes, and we need at least 84 cupcakes, so the number of cupcakes batch needed here should be:

84 ÷ 21 = 4 (batches)

Since we knew the number of batches that we need to make the cupcakes, we now calculate the amount of sugar needed. We have:

1/2 teaspoon of salt for every 1 batch.

x teaspoon of salt for every 4 batches.

x = (4 . 1/2) . 1 = 2 (teaspoons)

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
