4. A recipe for salad dressing calls for 1/3 tablespoon of vinegar for every tablespoon of
oil. The equation V = L gives the amount of vinegar needed (V) in terms of the
amount of olive oil used (L). Write another equation describing the recipe, this time
giving L in terms of V.
L=
/3

We want to write a linear equation for the recipe that describes the amount of oil that we need in terms of the vinegar.

The linear equation is: L = 3*V

So we know that the recipe calls for 1/3 tbsp of vinegar for every tbsp of oil.

Defining:

  • V = amount of vinegar used
  • L = amount of oil used.

The original equation is written as:

V = (1/3)*L

Now we want to rewrite this for L, this means, isolating L.

To do that we just multiply both sides by 3, so we get:

V*3 = (1/3)*3*L

V*3 = L

L = 3*V

This equation says that we will use 3 times more oil than vinegar.
