Answer:
2 cups of flour
2/3 cup of sugar
1 1/3 cups of chocolate chips
Step-by-step explanation:
3 dozen chocolate chip cookies
3 cups of flour
1 cup of sugar
2 cups of chocolate chips
The recipe is for 3 dozen cookies as stated above.
If you make 2 dozen cookies, then you are making 2/3 of the recipe since 2 is 2/3 of 3.
That means you need 2/3 of all the ingredients.
2/3 × 3 dozen chocolate chip cookies
2/3 × 3 cups of flour
2/3 × 1 cup of sugar
2/3 × 2 cups of chocolate chips
We simplify the amounts to:
2 dozen chocolate chip cookies
2 cups of flour
2/3 cup of sugar
1 1/3 cups of chocolate chips
y= -947/8
Just isolate the variables, even though this is a long, painstaking, agonizing process

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The geometric mean of 2 numbers a and b is 
The third term is the geometric mean of the first and fifth terms, that is
a₃ = 
= 31.5
The second term is the geometric mean of the first and third terms, that is
a₂ = 
= 10.5
The fourth term is the geometric mean of the third and fifth terms, that is
a₄ = 
= 94.5
Thus the sequence is
3.5, 10.5, 31.5, 94.5, 283.5
Because it may be the only number that is common to both numbers. Like the greatest common factor between 2 and 3 is 1.
