Answer:
a) 1/6 cup
Step-by-step explanation:
A bread recipe calls for 1/3 cup of butter. If you only want to make 1/2 of a batch you would need to use one half of the ingredients used in the original recipe.
So, if you originally need 1/3 cup of butter, you'd need to use half of it.
We are going to solve it like this:
Thus, you'd need 1/6 cup of butter to make 1/2 of a batch.
Answer:
y = - 2x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 8, 22) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 0)
m = =
= - 2, thus
y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (3, 0), then
0 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = 0 + 6 = 6
y = - 2x + 6 ← equation of line
Use this 3 following steps:
1)At first, we should find the roots :
3x+8=0 => x=-8/3
x-4=0 => x=4
2)Using a chart for the limits:

3)choose your solution:
[-8/3,-4)==> Sentence 3 is correct
