To make a cake that is 1/10 the size, you would want to use 0.2 cups of flower.
Tom started with total 72 chocolate wafers.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
The number of chocolate wafers taken by 8 members of the baseball team are in the sequence : 
The above sequence is <u>arithmetic sequence</u> with first term(a₁)= 1 and common difference (d) = 2
<u>Formula for Sum</u> of first
terms in arithmetic sequence is....
![S_{n}= \frac{n}{2}[2a_{1}+(n-1)d]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_%7Bn%7D%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B2a_%7B1%7D%2B%28n-1%29d%5D)
So, the Sum of 8 terms in that sequence....
![S_{8}= \frac{8}{2}[2(1)+(8-1)(2)]\\ \\ S_{8}= 4[2+7(2)]\\ \\ S_{8}=4(2+14)\\ \\ S_{8}=4(16)=64](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_%7B8%7D%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B8%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%281%29%2B%288-1%29%282%29%5D%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20S_%7B8%7D%3D%204%5B2%2B7%282%29%5D%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20S_%7B8%7D%3D4%282%2B14%29%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20S_%7B8%7D%3D4%2816%29%3D64)
That means, the total number of chocolate wafers taken by the baseball team members is 64. Tom ate 5 and then gave his brother 3 chocolate wafers at first.
So, the total number of chocolate wafers at starting 
-2(1-7n)-5n=34
Multiply the bracket by -2
(-2)(1)=-2
(-2)(-7n)=14n
-2+14n-5n=34
-2+9n=34
Move -2 to the other side. Sign changes from -2 to +2.
-2+2+9n=34+2
9n=34+2
9n=36
Divide by 9 for both sides
9n/9=36/9
n=4
Answer: n=4
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2+5x-14
factor by finding multiples of (-14) that add up to 5
7*-2=-14
7+-2=5
So the factored out equation is (x+7)(x-2)
Therefore the solutions are x=-7 and x=2
Answer:
x=73
