1/2 : 1
2 : 4
3 : 6
Notice that every ratio consists of a number and double the number.
For 1/2 cup lemon juice, use 1 cup sugar.
The amount of sugar is twice the amount of lemon juice.
The ratio is 1:2
Since you are told the ratio is 1:r, that means r is 2.
The unit rate is 2 cups sugar per cup of lemon juice.
2x - 15
15 is decreased that is the key word here which indicates subtraction.

Answer:
Since Paula has her own business of making cakes for special occasions, and the total price (P) of one of Paula's cakes is represented by the equation P = 0.75S +10, where S is the number of people the cake serves, for determine what does the 0.75 represent in this situation and what does the 10 represent in this equation, the following mathematical reasoning must be carried out:
P is the price of the cake
S is the number of servings
Therefore, 0.75 is the value of each serving, which can be variable (the number of servings can vary)
In turn, 10 is the fixed cost of each cake.
