To determine which cookie yields more cookies from one cup of sugar, let's analyze the information given for Cookie A:

According to the table for Cookie A:

  • For 2 cups of sugar, it yields 80 cookies.
  • For 3 cups of sugar, it yields 120 cookies.
  • For 4 cups of sugar, it yields 160 cookies.

To find the yield per cup of sugar for Cookie A, we can calculate as follows:

  • For 1 cup of sugar: Since 2 cups yield 80 cookies, 1 cup would yield \( \frac{80}{2} = 40 \) cookies.
  • For 1 cup of sugar in general, it's given that the yield for 2 cups is 80 cookies, meaning each cup gives 40 cookies.

Now let’s analyze Cookie B. The response options indicate that Cookie B makes either 36 cookies, 40 cookies, or 72 cookies per cup of sugar.

Since we have already determined Cookie A makes 40 cookies from one cup of sugar, we can compare this to the yields from Cookie B stated in the responses.

Based on the details:

  • If Cookie B makes 36 cookies: Cookie A yields more cookies (40 > 36).
  • If Cookie B makes 40 cookies: They are equal (40 = 40).
  • If Cookie B makes 72 cookies: Cookie B yields more cookies (72 > 40).

The only statements we can confirm from the information given are that Cookie A consistently yields 40 cookies from one cup of sugar, and Cookie B's yield varies.

Given the responses, the correct statement is: Cookie A makes more cookies than Cookie B from one cup of sugar. Cookie A makes 80 cookies, and Cookie B makes 36 cookies from one cup of sugar.

However, since we established that Cookie A yields 40 cookies per cup, it indicates that Cookie B's yield is less than that for the particular responses. Therefore, we’ll confirm the best fit is:

Cookie A makes 80 cookies, and Cookie B makes 36 cookies from one cup of sugar.
