celine mixes raisins and peanuts to make a snack. she uses 0.75 cup raisins for every 0.5 cup peanuts. write a proportion and use it to find the number of cups of raisins she uses if she uses 4.25 cups of peanuts

6.375 cups of raisins

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of raisins to peanuts is 3:2. This is because 0.5 divided by 2 and then multiplied by 3 is equal to 0.75.

So to find the number of raisins we need to divide the number of peanuts by 2 and then multiply it by 3:

(4.25 : 2) * 3 = 6.375

Step-by-step explanation: they both equal 2x + 4

2x + 4=2 (x + 4)

2x + 4 = (2 X x) + (2 X 4)

2x + 4 = 2x + 4
