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! :)

X= 7 4. Find the equation of a line passing through (5, -6) perpendicular (b) 3x + 5y = (d) 7x - 12y (f) x = 7 (a) 2x + y = 12 (
goldfiish [28.3K]

Given data:

The first set of equations are x+y=4, and x=6.

The second set of equations are 3x-y=12 and y=-6.

The point of intersection of first set of te equations is,

6+y=4

y=-2

The first point is (6, -2).

The point of intersection of second set of te equations is,

3x-(-6)=12

3x+6=12

3x=6

x=2

The second point is (2, -6).

The equation of the line passing through (6, -2) and (2, -6) is,

\begin{gathered} y-(-2)=\frac{-6-(-2)}{2-6}(x-6) \\ y+2=\frac{-6+2}{-4}(x-6) \\ y+2=x-6 \\ y=x-8 \end{gathered}

Thus, the required equation of the line is y=x-8.

Answer:

<u>The budget for defense can be represented as x + 660.4</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:

Budget for education is $ 660.4 billion less than budget for defense in some country

x = represents the budget for education, in billion of dollars

2. How can the budget for defense be​ represented?

x = represents the budget for education, in billion of dollars

x + 660.4 = represents the budget for defense, in billion of dollars also

<u>The correct answer is that the budget for defense can be represented as x + 660.4</u>

Answer:

\large\boxed{x\in\mathbb{R}-\{1\}}\to\text{any real number except 1}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{x-1}{x-1}=1\\\\\text{Domain:}\ x-1\neq0\qquad\text{add 1 to both sides}\\\\x\neq1\\\\\text{We know:}\ \dfrac{a}{a}=1\ \text{for any real number except 0}.\\\\\text{Therefore}\ x\ \text{is any real number except 1}.
