Abaker at rods bakery misread the directions and used 53/4 cups of flour in a recipe. it was 13/4 times to much flour. how much flour should the baker have used

If the baker used and it was too much, then we must perform the following math calculation:

This will find the actual amount that the baker needed to use. To do this calculation we can use the Keep Change Switch rule.

Keep , change the division to multiplication, and then switch the numerator with the denominator on the second fraction to get This gives us:

Now multiply the numerators and put that over the product of the denominators.

Make sure you reduce your fractions, always good to do that!

The baker should have used cups of flour.

for this case we have by definition, if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1.

then, given the following line:

so,

we are looking for m_ {2}:

then, the line is given by:

we find "b" replacing the given point:

finally, the equation is:

option c
