Arestaurant uses 60 cups of mushrooms to make 12 gallons of mushroom soup. jesse wants to make 3 gallons of soup using this recipe. how many cups of mushrooms should he use?

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Write a proportion:

60 cups / 12 gallons = x cups / 3 gallons

Cross multiply:

12x = 180

Divide:

x = 15

He should use 15 cups.

step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope

slope = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (-8-4)/ (-4-0)

    = -12/-4

  = 3

using the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b

we know the slope is 3

we know the y intercept is 4 ( the point where it crosses the y axis or x=0)

y = 3x+4
