Nicks is making bread dough. the recipe requires 3/4 cu of flour and 1 1/8 teaspoons of salt. nick wants to make the recipe using 1 cup of flour, to maintain the ratio, how much salt is required when 1 cup of flour is used.

3/4 cup flour      1 cup flour

=  

1 1/8 tsp salt     x tsp salt

using cross products

3/4 * x = 1 1/8 * 1

change the mixed number

(1 1/8 to an improper fraction  = 9/8)

3/4 x =9/8

multiply each side by 4/3

3/4 x * 4/3 = 9/8 * 4/3

x =36/24

x =3/2

x= 1 1/2 tsp salt

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
