If they proportional, it implies
(x+2)/(x-1) = 8/10
Or 10x +20 = 8x-8
Or 2x = -28 or x = -14
Yes it is the right answer .-.

Answer:
The ratio of flour to sugar is 2:1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let f = weight of a bag of flour
Let s = weight of a bag of sugar
3f+2s = 32
4f = 32
We have 2 equations and 2 unknowns, we can solve
4f=32
Divide by 4
4f/4 = 32/4
f = 8
Each bag of flour weights 8 pounds
Substitute this back into the first equation
3(8) +2s = 32
24+2s = 32
Subtract 24 from each side
24-24 +2s =32-24
2s = 8
Divide by 2
2s/2 = 8/2
s = 4 pounds
Flours weighs 8 pounds and sugar weights 4 pounds
We want the ratio of flour to sugar
Flour: sugar
8:4
We can divide each side by 4
8/4: 4/4
2:1
Use the squeeze theorem; if
1 - <em>x</em> ²/4 ≤ <em>u(x)</em> ≤ 1 + <em>x</em> ²/2,
then taking the limit on each part as <em>x</em> approaches 0 gives
1 ≤ lim [<em>x</em> → 0] <em>u(x)</em> ≤ 1
and so the limit of <em>u(x)</em> as <em>x</em> → 0 is simply 1.
