A tomato sauce recipe calls for 3/4 Cups of basil for each 1/8 teaspoon of salt. If 1 cup of basil is used, how many teaspoons of salt should be used?

Work Shown:

3/4 cups basil : 1/8 teaspoon of salt

1 cup basil : (4/3)*(1/8) teaspoon of salt

1 cup basil : (4*1)/(3*8) teaspoon of salt

1 cup basil : 4/24 teaspoon of salt

1 cup basil : 1/6 teaspoon of salt

You'll split a full teaspoon into 6 smaller pieces, and only use one of those pieces.

first, we define the variables:

x: number of years after 1950

f (x): amount of vinyl sold.

then, with the variables defined, we have:

68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 > f (8) = 68594

91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 > f (11) = 91299

38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 > f (2) = 38720

161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 > f (17) = 161743
