Answer 1

To answer the question regarding the number of cookies produced for each cup of sugar used in the recipes for Cookie A and Cookie B, we need to summarize the information provided:

### Cookie A:
- **2 cups of sugar** yields **80 cookies**, which gives us:
- 80 cookies / 2 cups = **40 cookies per cup**

Now, looking at the additional data from the table:
- **3 cups** yields **120 cookies** (this corroborates the previous calculation: 120 / 3 = 40 cookies per cup)
- **4 cups** yields **160 cookies** (160 / 4 = 40 cookies per cup)

Thus, for Cookie A, we find it consistently yields **40** cookies for each cup of sugar.

### Cookie B:
From the graph provided, we analyze the point at **1 cup of sugar**, where it appears that **36** cookies are produced.

Now, comparing the number of cookies produced per cup for both Cookie A and Cookie B:
- **Cookie A** makes **40 cookies per cup**.
- **Cookie B** makes **36 cookies per cup**.

### Conclusion:
Cookie A produces more cookies than Cookie B for one cup of sugar. Therefore, the correct response is:

**Cookie A makes more cookies than Cookie B from one cup of sugar. Cookie A makes 40 cookies, and Cookie B makes 36 cookies from one cup of sugar.**
