Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
to make 1 cup with 1/4 cup you need to put 4.
therefore;
number of 1/4 cups needed = 3x4=12
Assuming that the triangles are congruent, you can just look at the parts on each triangle to find the parts on the other triangle. The answers are yes, yes, and no. The triangles are obviously not drawn to scale, so just remember to never rely on it being so.
Summaation of a sequence
or see a smaller scale
from 1 to 10
notice
1+10=11
2+9=11
etc
5+6=11
10/2=5
there are 5 pairs
5*11=55
so
1 to 100
1+100=101
2+99=101
...
50+51=101
100/2=50
there ar 50 pairs
50 times 101=5050
the sum is 5050
Let x = sue
and then let 3x-84 = marcia
therefore
(x)+(3x-84)=132
4x-84=132
4x=216
x=54
however just solving for x doesnt completely solve. it only shows sues money because x = sue
for marcia
3x-84
3(54)-84
162-84
78
therefore Marcia has 78$.
