PLEASE HELP!!!:) Which equations model this problem? A recipe that makes one pot pie calls for 0.125 g of pepper. How many pot pies can Michael make if he uses 1 g of pepper? Use p for the number of pot pies. Choose all answers that are correct. A. 1/0.125 =p B. 0.125*1=p C 0.125p=1 D. 1/p=1/0.125 i think it's a and b :/

OpenStudy (haichi):

A, Becuase 1/0.125= the number of pot pies he can make which is 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah but they want me to pick two??? :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A and C, because .125*p(8)=1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't believe D is correct, the final decision is up to you, but I stand by A and C.

@ItsMeTrueAC jk you were right thank you!! :)

OpenStudy (radar):

Come on now, if a is correct then p = 8 if d. is correct, then p = .125 I believe a is correct, but d is not.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

youre very welcome @CuteGirl903k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@radar it actually is i got the test results back :)

OpenStudy (radar):

Congratulations on the test results. I hope you understand why choice d is incorrect. Looking at the problem you can readily see that Michael can make more than 1 pot pie, He has plenty of pepper 1 gram is more than .125 gram. Now look at choice d.|dw:1412983859618:dw| Good luck to you and here's to your understanding.
