Joanna is making a recipe that uses 1 1/2 teaspoon of salt for every 2 cups of sugar. If Joanna increases the recipe to use 5 of sugar, how many teaspoon of salt will she need?

B. 3 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that Joanna is making a recipe that uses 1 1/2 teaspoon of salt for every 2 cups of sugar. Since, uses 1 1/2 teaspoon of salt for every 2 cups of sugar, 1 cup of sugar will use 1/2 of 1 1/2 teaspoon of salt. This will be:

= 1/2 × 1 1/2

= 1/2 × 3/2

= 3/4 teaspoon of salt.

We then multiply the value used for a cup of sugar by 5 since Joanna increases the recipe to use 5 cups of sugar. This will be:

= 3/4 × 5

= 15/4

= 3 3/4

-3.5 is the distance.

i've had this question so choose the one in the absolute value sign.

8.75

how-to:

first, we need to find what we have to work with.

since i know that we have 7 (years) and 0.8 (inches), we can use these to solve and find the equation!

secondly, what you want to do, is see that we need to know how much growth out of the 0.8 inches he got in only 1 year, instead of 7 years.

let's try to divide.

7 ÷ 0.8 = 8.75
