It takes 1 4 cups of mayonnaise to make 3 4 cups of tuna fish salad. If Cory has a recipe for 1 cup of tuna fish salad, how much mayonnaise will he need to make 9 times the recipe?

3 cups mayonnaise will he need to make 9 times the recipe

Step-by-step explanation:

given that it  takes 1 /4 cups of mayonnaise to make 3/ 4 cups of tuna fish salad

For 1 cup of tuna fish salad maynonnaise required = 1/3 cups.

When tuna fish salad increases mayonnaise also increases.

So this is direct variation

Hence for preparing 9 times the recipe,

Requd mayonnaise = 9*1/3 = 3 cups

3 cups mayonnaise will he need to make 9 times the recipe

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

4

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
