Answer:
He needs 3.75 lbs of sugar and 1.25 lbs of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x lbs be the amount of sugar in the syrup. Then 5-x lbs is the amount of water in this syrup.
Note
5 lbs - 100%
x lbs - 75%
Write a proportion:
Cross multiply:
So, he needs 3.75 lbs of sugar and 5 - 3.75 = 1.25 lbs of water.
Answer:
115
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference d between consecutive terms, that is
d = 7 - 1 = 13 - 7 = 19 - 13 = 25 - 19 = 6
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with n th term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 1 and d = 6 , thus
a₂₀ = 1 + (19 × 6) = 1 + 114 = 115
means to say that for any given , we can find
such that anytime
(i.e. the whenever
is "close enough" to 5), we can guarantee that
(i.e. the value of
is "close enough" to the limit value).
What we want to end up with is
Dividing both sides by 3 gives
which suggests is a sufficient threshold.
The proof itself is essentially the reverse of this analysis: Let be given. Then if
and so the limit is 7. QED
