To make hot cereal, macy uses the directions on the back of the cereal box, as shown in the table below. macy wants to make 10 servings of hot cereal. using this table, what is the total number of cups of dry cereal that she should use?

a. 10 cups
b. 1.25 cups
c. 5 cups
d. 2.5 cups

2.5 cups

Because, 1/4 + 1/2 = 1x1/4x1 + 1x2/2x2 = 1/4 + 2/4

1) a: [$]75 + [$]0.20x = ƒ(m) b: [$]0.35x = ƒ(m)the 75 is how much you automatically pay and the .2x and .35x is how much you would pay per mile (the variable can be changed to your liking). ƒ(m) is the total cost. 2) set your equations to equal each other.75 + .2x = .35xsolve.move the .2x over by subtracting it from both sides. 75 = .15xget x by itself by dividing both sides by 0.15.500 = xit would take 500 miles for plan a and b to be equal in cost.
