⓵ You have to do a cross product in order to find your answer :

1/4 lb → 3 servings
1 ½ lb → × servings

(3 x 1 ½) ÷ 1/4 = (3 x 1,5) ÷ 0,25

⓶ Now you need to solve the equation :

(3 x 1,5) ÷ 0,25

↓

(4,5) ÷ 0,25

↓

4,5 ÷ 0,25 = 18

Which means that your final answer is that Mark can make 18 servings with 1 ½ lb of onions!

I hope this helped! ☻

<h2>2x+y=2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $p1$ be the point $(-1,4)$

Let $p2$ be the point $(3,-4)$

The equation of the line passing through two points $p1=(x_{1},y_{1})$

and $p2=(x_{2},y_{2})$ is $\frac{y-y_{1}}{x-x_{1}} =\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

substituting $p1,p2$ in the above equation yields

$\frac{y-4}{x-(-1)}=\frac{-4-4}{3-(-1)}$

which when simplified gives $\frac{y-4}{x+1}=\frac{-8}{4}$

which when further simplified gives $2x+y=2$
