For 12 people it would be 2 liters of soda, 1 pint of sherbet, &3 cups of ice. you wanna make half as much as his recipe says so just divide everything by 2. then you can multiply what the half recipe calls for to serve 36 people by three. so it would be 6 liters of soda, 3 pints of sherbet and 9 cups of ice. I hope that made sense to you, it was kind of hard to out the explanation into words

Consider the following sequence

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a₇ = 2.375

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = $\frac{-76}{152}$ = $\frac{38}{-76}$ = $\frac{-19}{38}$ = - $\frac{1}{2}$

This indicates the sequence is geometric with nth term

$a_{n}$ = a₁ $(r)^{n-1}$

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 152 and r = - $\frac{1}{2}$ , then

$a_{n}$ = 152 $(-\frac{1}{2}) ^{n-1}$ , so

a₇ = 152 $(-\frac{1}{2}) ^{6}$ = 152 × $\frac{1}{64}$ = 2.375

64% of what number is 48

timama [110]

X= 75

the equation is
is/of %/100

48 = is
64 = %
X = of
100 = 100

48 X 100 = 4,800
64 X x = 64x

64x / 64 = x
4800 / 64 = 75

<span>SO... x = 75</span>

Find the equation,in standard form, of the line passing through the point (2,-3) and (4,2)

VLD [36.1K]

The standard form:

$Ax+By=C$

The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - point

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (2, -3) and (4, 2). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{2-(-3)}{4-2}=\dfrac{5}{2}$

$y-(-3)=\dfrac{5}{2}(x-2)$

$y+3=\dfrac{5}{2}(x-2)$ <em>use distributive property</em>

$y+3=\dfrac{5}{2}x-5$ <em>multiply both sides by 2</em>

$2y+6=5x-10$ <em>subtract 6 from both sides</em>

$2y=5x-16$ <em>subtract 5x from both sides</em>

$-5x+2y=-16$ <em>change the signs</em>

$\boxed{5x-2y=16}$
