Answer:
[tex]r=\dfrac{2}{3}p[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A trail mix recipe asks for 4 cups of raisins for every 6 cups of peanuts.
There is proportional relationship between the amount of raisins, r (cups), and the amount of peanuts, p (cups), in this recipe.
The ratio of raisins and peanuts = 4:6 or 2:3
It would be same for every mixture.
If r cups of raisins and p cups of peanuts then their mixture ratio is r:p
Therefore,
[tex]\dfrac{r}{p}=\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]r=\dfrac{2}{3}p[/tex]
