First, we should find how many total milliliters we have by multiplying 250 mL by 10 servings to get 2500 mL. Then, we can convert 2500 mL to liters because 1000 mL equals 1 liters (2500/1000=2.5 L). Then since the bowl can only have 2 liters of punch, then 10 servings will not fit.
Hope this helps
If this exact question is repeatedly deleted, it's probably because of the ambiguity of the given equation. I see two likely interpretations, for instance:

or

If the first one is what you intended, then

and it follows that
2<em>k</em> + 8 = 3 ==> 2<em>k</em> = -5 ==> <em>k</em> = -5/2
If you meant the second one, then

which would give
<em>k</em> + 9 = 3 ==> <em>k</em> = -6
And for all I know, you might have meant some other alternative... When you can, you should include a picture of your problem.
We know that the percentage amount of any number can be found by first converting the the given percentage to a fraction and then multiplying it by the given number. Thus, in our case, the exact value, that is 48% of 1165 can be calculated as follows:
We know that 
Therefore, 48% of 1165 can be re-written as: 
This can be calculated as [tex]0.48\times 1165=559.2[/tex
Therefore The exact value that is 48% of 1165 is 559.2
Okay so for substitution, chose one of of the equations to solve for x. Let's solve for the second one. So you have 2x-8y=32.
Start by adding 8y to both sides:
2x=8y+32.
Then you have to get x by itself so you divide both sides by 2 which will give you:
x=4y+16.
Now you have:
6x-4y=36
x=4y+16 (this was 2x-8y=32)
Now, plug in the second equation to the first one. You would do so by plugging in the second equation to where you see x. You would have:
6(4y+16)-4y=36
Now, multiply the 6 with the 4y and 16. you would then have:
24y+96-4y=36.
Now, combine your like terms to get:
20y+96=36
Then subtract 96 to both sides:
20y=-60
Then divide both sides so that you have y all by itself:
y=-30!
You now have the answer for y, so now plug what you got for y into the other equation: x+4y=16:
x+4(-30)=60
Solve for x:
x-120=60
add 120 to both sides:
x=180!
so Your answer is Y=-30 and X=180
I hope this helped:)
The problem is stating that Mandy found the ratio between input and output of many points on the graph, which are displayed by the fractions. Mandy's conclusion was that they were not equivalent, meaning they were different and that is why the function is not proportional. Mandy's conclusion is wrong, the relation is proportional. If we take all the functions we have:

Where the input is the denominator and the output is the numerator we will have a ratio of "5". Mandy's mistake was to invert the last fraction, she inserted the output in the denominator, this is why she said the were different.
