Since the ratio is a part to part ratio (5 to 3) just change it to a part to whole ratio, 5 hot drinks to 8 drinks total to make things easier first. Than divide 400 by 8 to see the scale factor which is 50. Finally multiply 5 times 50 to find out how much hot drinks there was total which is 250.
Ever seen this before:
5 hot drinks : 8 total drinks
x50 =                       x50 =
250 hot drinks : 400 total drinks

Can someone please help me. This is an equation for either an arithmetic or geometric sequence.
djyliett [7]
A6 = -8
a15= -62

There are (15 - 6) terms in between, therefore 9 terms in between.
-8 to -62 ... there is a difference of 54
54 ÷ 9 = 6
Therefore it gets -6 each term.
a6 = -8, a7= -14, a8 = -20 ......

What is the slope for a line that is parallel to the line y=2/5x-4
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line

y=2/5x-4

is 2/5 since it is in the form y = mx+b where m is the slope

Parallel lines have the same slope so a line that is parallel to  y=2/5x-4 has a slope of 2/5
