The big burger recipe calls for 3 meat patties, 2 slices of cheese, and four pickles. how many meat patties are needed if 52 pickles are used?

39 meat patties

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The Big Burger recipe calls for 3 meat patties, 2 slices of cheese and 4 pickles,

That is, the ratio of meat patties, cheese and pickles in the recipe = 3 : 2 : 4

Let in a recipe,

Meat patties = 3x, Cheese = 2x, pickles = 4x

Where, x is a positive real number,

If there are 52 pickles,

⇒ 4x = 52 ⇒ x = 13

Hence, meat patties = 3 (13) = 39

y = 0.77(x)

step-by-step explanation:

the jacket retains this value after 23% cut or retains 77% of original value. plug original 87 jacket price for x and the remaining value should be y.

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
