Hi there!

In order to answer your question, you'll need to use the cross product method:

1 cup water → 1/4 cup sugar

10 cups water → X cup sugar


(<u>(1/4) × 10)</u> ÷ 1 = X cups sugar

<u>2.5 ÷ 1</u> = X cups sugar

2.5 = X cups sugar


Your answer is : Using 10 cups of water, you should add 2 and a half cups of sugar so that the large batch tastes the same as the test batch.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

The output with the y being -4
aivan3 [116]

For this case we have a function of the form y = f (x), where f (x) = - 4x. We must find the values of "and" according to the following function:y = -4x

So:

f (-6) = - 4 (-6) = 24\\f (-2) = - 4 (-2) = 8\\f (3) = - 4 (3) = - 12

Thus, the values are:

24,8, -12

Answer:

24,8, -12

1. Given the equation (x – 3)2 – 32 = 17 a)
m_a_m_a [10]
We know that

The square root property<span> is one method that is used to find the solutions to a quadratic equation.  This method involves taking the square roots of both sides of the equation.  
</span>(x – 3)² – 32 = 17-------> (x – 3)² = 17+32-----------> (x – 3)² = 49
(x – 3)² = 7²--------> <span>will take the square root of each side
</span>so
√(x – 3)²=(+-)√7²------> <span>notice the use of the </span> sign (+-), this will give us both a positive and<span>  a negative root
</span>
then

x-3=7--------> x=10
x-3=-7-------> x=-4

the answer Part a) is
x=10
x=-4

Part b) Explain why the given equation has two solutions.

the answer part b) is
Because exist<span> the possibility of two roots for every square root, one positive and one negative</span>

Simplify 2x - 8x - 6y + 9 -14 + x + 11y.
raketka [301]
We can see that 2x - 8x + x = -5x
and -6y + 11y = 5y
and 9 - 14 = -5
so simplified, it is -5x + 5y - 5

a skateboard company is putting together boards and wheels to make skateboards. the company has a box of 36 boards. they need 4
vodka [1.7K]
If you multiply 36 by four since there are 4 wheels for skateboard
you will get 144.  That number is the total number of wheels you need to order and since they come in packs of 20 what you need to do is divide 144 by 20 and you will get 7.2.  So obviously you can't order 7.20 packs of wheels so this means that 8 packs of wheels must be bought in order to ensure that all of the skateboards get wheels on them.
The answer is 8.
