If an apple pie recipe calls for 8 apples for every 3 cups of flour, how many apples would you have to use for 7.5 cups of flour?
pls i need answers soon

20 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

But to help you start, if 8 apples per every 3 cups, then 6 cups equals 16 apples. So take 6 out of that 7.5 and that leaves you with 1.5. 1.5 is half of 3 cups so i think you do half of the apples so it would be 20  apples for 7.5  cups of flour

x> 6

step-by-step explanation:

8x+8> 7x+14

8x-7x> 14-8

x> 6

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
