Orly uses 2 cups of raisins for every 12 cups of trail mix she makes. how many cups of trail mix will she make if she uses 8 cups of raisins?

x = 10.1

step-by-step explanation:

all of the angles of a tirangle add up to 180º

180 - 65 = 115 (since we already know the value of one angle)

(2x + 7) + (8x + 7) = 115

(combins like terms) 10x + 14 = 115

(isolate the variable subtract 14 from both sides): 10x = 101

(find the variable divide both sides by 10): x = 101/10

x = 10.1

2 5/8 is the final answer! : )

b. 1.25 hr

step-by-step explanation:

if you have a constant speed of 60 mph, then you have a ratio between 60 mi. to 1 hr. dividing both sides by 60 we get the ratio

1 mi. to

then mult. both sides by 75 we get the ratio

75 mi. to

simplifying we get

75 mi. to

or 1.25 hr.

answer: 7
