Okay so every part of sugar requires 4 parts of water
so
3434 cups of sugar x 4 (parts of water per 1 part of sugar) = 13736
She will need to use 13, 736 parts of water for 3, 434 parts of sugar
So,
187 divided by 7
187/7
Mixed: 26 5/7
Decimal: 26.714285 (there is a vinculum over the "714285")
You would transform 5x + 2x into the same term with the associative property, adding like terms. If you subsitute the different values into the expressions you notice that both have a rate of change of 7 like an arithmetic sequence. To see if any value will make the two expressions equal you make them equal to each other.
5x + 2x = 7x -1
7x = 7x - 1
0 = -1
No they will never have be a solution to both expressions to make them equal because they're parallel to each other.
Right angle is the right answer
