Nick is making bread dough. The recipe requires 3/4 cup of flour and 1 1/8 teaspoon of salt. Nick wants to make the recipe using 1 cup of flour. To maintain the ratio, how much salt is required when 1 cup of flour is used? (explain)

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

make equal equations first

 =  

cross multiply to get: 3/4x = 1  

divide by 3/4 on both sides: x = 1

answer: 204

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that the revenue is

x⋅(4080−10x)=−10x^2+4080x

this is a quadratic function, so to maximize it we should find the x-value of its vertex. recall that the x-value of the vertex of the parabola ax^2+bx+c is given by the formula −b/2a.

so in this case, we have a=−10 and b=4080, so the x-value of the vertex is

−b/2a= −(4080)/2(−10)=204
