A cafeteria serves lemonade that is made from a powdered drink mix. There is a proportional relationship between the number of s

coops of powdered drink mix and the amount of water needed to make it. For every 2 scoops of mix, one half gallon of water is needed, and for every 5 scoops of mix, one and one fourth gallons of water are needed.
Part A: Find the constant of proportionality. Show every step of your work.

Part B: Write an equation that represents the relationship. Show every step of your work.

Part C: Describe how you would graph the relationship. Use complete sentences.

Part D: How many gallons of water are needed for 12 scoops of drink mix?

Therefore ,the constant of proportionality comes out to be 4 and the equation that represents the relationship is x=1/4y.

<h3>What is equation?</h3>

Since equations are essentially questions, efforts to systematically find answers to those questions have been the driving force behind the development of mathematics. From straightforward algebraic equations that just require addition or multiplication to differential equations, exponential equations that use exponential expressions, and integral equations, there are many different types of equations that range in complexity.

Here,

scoop is represented as x and water is represented as y

therefore, For every 2 scoops of mix, one half gallon of water is needed, and for every 5 scoops of mix, one and one fourth gallons of water are needed.

Equation from the given data is

2x = 1/2y or x=1/4y

and

5x = (1+1/4)y

5x=5/4y

So,

x=1/4y.

Therefore ,the constant of proportionality comes out to be 4

The equation that represents the relationship is x=1/4y.

We can graph the plot by using the given equation x=1/4y

or 4x=y

so for every x value we have to put 4 times its value into y for every point

you point in the graph.

The time T that technician requires to perform preventive maintenance on an air conditioning unit has an unknown probability dis
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the probability that a maintenance operation will take more than 2 hours and 15 minutes. We can first calculate the probability that ALL maintenance operation on 70 of the units will take less than 2 hours and 15 minutes, then subtract it from 1.

So the probability of a maintenance operation that would take less than 2 hours and 15 minutes, or 135 minutes is:

P(X \leq 135, \mu = 120, \sigma = 60) = 0.6

So the probability that a maintenance operation will take more than 2 hours and 15 minutes is:

1 - 0.6 = 0.4

An investment of $8500 increases in value by 4.5% every year. How long until the investment
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

16 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Principal= $8500

Rate= 4.5%

Final amount=  $17,323

The expression to find time in compound interest is given as

t= ln(A/P)/r

substitute

t= ln(17323/8500)/0.045

t= ln(2.038)/0.045

t=0.711/0.045

t= 15.8 years

Hence the total time is about 16 years

there are two pizzas. Conor ate 1/4 of a pizza, Brandon ate 2/8, Tyler ate 3/4, and Audrey ate 4/8. who ate the most of the two
katovenus [111]
Let's say that each pizza is sliced into 8 equal sized pieces, I have to make all of the fraction have the denominator of 8.
Conor: 1/4 * 2/2 = 2/8
Tyler: 3/4 * 2/2 = 6/8
Brandon: 2/8
Audrey: 4/8
Then I'll put the fractions in order from least to greatest. 2/8, 2/8, 4/8, 6/8. Then you would have to multiply each fraction by 2 since there are two pizzas that have 8 equally sized pieces.
Brandon: 2/8 *2/2 = 4/16
Conor: 2/8 * 2/2 = 4/16
Audrey: 4/8 * 2/2 = 8/16
Tyler: 6/8 * 2/2= 12/16
This means that Tyler ate the most of the two pizzas.
