Answer 2

(a) One unit rate: 1 gram of garlic powder for each 3 grams of salt.
Another unit rate: 2 grams of garlic powder for each 6 grams of salt.

(b) If 10 grams of garlic powder are used, then 10 grams of salt are needed.

Answer 3

I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct it.

(a) One unit rate: 6 grams of garlic powder for each 18 grams of salt.
Another unit rate: 2 grams of garlic powder for each 6 grams of salt.

(b) To find the grams of salt needed if 10 grams of garlic powder are used, we can set up a proportion:

6 grams of garlic powder / 18 grams of salt = 10 grams of garlic powder / x grams of salt

Cross multiplying:

6x = 180

Dividing both sides by 6:

x = 30

So, 30 grams of salt are needed if 10 grams of garlic powder are used.
