Flour : sugar = (1/3) : (1/5) = 5 : 3 . . . . . . . . multiply the first ratio by 15 to eliminate fractions
The total of ratio units in the last representation is 5+3=8, so for a recipe of 16 cups, each ratio unit will stand for 16/8 = 2 cups.
Multiplying the ratio by 2 cups, we find Amanda will need
... 10 cups flour : 6 cups sugar
for her recipe.
Answer:
The equation of the line would be y = -3/2x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this, start by finding the slope of the original line. You can do this by solving for y.
2x - 3y = 12
-3y = -2x + 12
y = 2/3x - 4
Now that we have a slope of 2/3, we know that the perpendicular slope is -3/2 (since perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes). We can use this and the new point in point-slope form to find the equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 6 = -3/2(x - 2)
y - 6 = -3/2x + 3
y = -3/2x + 9
