Question

While in the United States visiting her grandmother, Kendra copied the famous family apple pie recipe. When she returns to England, she plans on making the same apple pie for her friends. To do this, Kendra needs to convert the flour from cups to grams. She knows that 0.5 cup of flour has a mass of 64 grams and 2 cups of flour has a mass of 256 grams.

Answer 1

Write a function that shows grams as a function of cups. Use g(x).

Answer 2

The relationship of the graph should be like the graph you found for g(x)=128x. For every one cup of flour, there is 128 grams of flower.

Part D is more like an interpretation so just pick a random number like 0.75 or 3/4 of a cup and plug it into your x of g(x). g(x)=128(0.75). g(x)=96. Interpret that as 3/4 of a cup is equal to 96 grams.

Part E would be using 3/4 of a cup like I did before and finding a new way to get 96 out of it.

In Part F I'm pretty sure that it wouldn't apply to this problem and g(-2) essentially means you have -2 cups of flour which isn't possible.

Answer 3

Did i do something wrong:(
