Since she needs 3 1/2 for 5, and you need to find one batch, get 3 1/2 and divide it by 5. Change 3 1/2 to an improper fraction (7/2). Now use KCS (keep change switch) Keep the 7/2, change division to multiplication, and switch 5/1 to 1/5. (7/2)•(1/5)
The equation of the line that has a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of -2 is:

Answer:
9, the sum of the numbers given in the ratio
Step-by-step explanation:
The reduced ratio 2 : 7 means that two parts correspond to one length and 7 parts correspond to the other length. That is, there are a total of 2+7 = 9 parts in the full length of the segment.
It is convenient to think of the line segment as being divided into 9 equal parts.

<em>Additional comments</em>
It is often helpful to consider the total number of "ratio units" in a given ratio. For example, in this problem, the shorter segment is 2/9 of the whole, and the longer one is 7/9 of the whole.
It can also be useful to consider what a "ratio unit" represents. If the whole segment is 27 inches long, then each of the 9 ratio units will represent 3 inches, for example. This means the division 2:7 is 2(3 in):7(3 in) = 6 in : 21 in.
