Answer:

3 cups of pretzels and 9 cups of chex he will need.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of pretzel to chex = 1:3

Let the cup of pretzel be 1x

Let the cup of chex be 3x

1 x+ 3x = 12

4x = 12

x=\frac{12}{4}=3

Cups of pretzel required = 1x = 1 × 3 = 3

Cups of chex required = 3x = 3 × 3 = 9

So for every one cup of pretzels (1p)
You have three cups of chex (3c)

The ratio between pretzels and chex is 1p:3c

Thus, changes in 1 is proportional with changes in 3.

You need a total of 12 cups of party mix. The sum of the ratio 1 cup of pretzels and 3 cups of chex is 4.

So you would need 3 cups of pretzels and 9 cups of chex for the ratio to equal a sum of 12.

Thus the answer is 3p:9c

OMG PLEASE HELP ME ASAP!!!!!!! A local charity sponsors a 5K race to raise money. It receives $55 per race entry and $10,000 in
Dominik [7]
Start with how much profit they are making off each race entry. People pay $55 to race, but $15 of that is expenses so they are only profiting $40 for each entry. Now write one side of the equality. They start with $10,000 in donations, and then have a $40 profit for each race entry. So 10,000+40x. X will represent the unknown number of race entries. What do we want that expression to be equal to? We want 10000+40x>55000. It can also be greater than or equal to, not just greater than. Solve for x. Subtract 10000 from each side resulting in 40x>45000. Divide each side by 40 to solve for x. X>1125. X needs to bbe greater than or equal to 1125. If there are 1125 race entries, the charity will profit exactly $55000, so the lowest number of race entries is 1125

Solve the differential equation.<br><br> dp/dt = t^2p - p + t^2 - 1
Alborosie
\frac{dp}{dt} = t^2 p - p + t^2 - 1 \Rightarrow \frac{dp}{dt} = p(t^2  - 1)+ 1(t^2 - 1 ) \Rightarrow \\&#10;\\&#10;\frac{dp}{dt} = (p+1)(t^2 - 1)\ \Rightarrow\ \frac{dp}{p+1} = \left(t^2 - 1\right)dt\ \Rightarrow \\ \\&#10;\int \frac{dp}{p+1} =\int \left(t^2 - 1\right)dt\ \Rightarrow \ \ln|p+1| = \frac{1}{3}t^2 - t + C  \ \Rightarrow \\ \\&#10;|p+1| = e^{t^3/3 - t + C}\ \Rightarrow\ p+1 = \pm e^Ce^{t^3/3 - t} \Rightarrow \\ \\&#10;p = Ke^{t^3/3 -t} - 1,\ \text{where $K = \pm e^C$}&#10;

Since p = -1 is also a solution, K can equal 0, and hence, K can be any real number.

What logarithmic function represents the data in the table?
alina1380 [7]
216 =6^3
1,296 = 6^4
7,776 = 6^5
x = 6^f(x)
log x = log 6^f(x) = f(x)log 6
f(x) = log x / log 6 = log_6x
