Your father is planning to cook for 35 people using a recipe that specifies two and a half cups of sugar for each six people,
almond37 [142]

Your father will require 14.6 cups of sugar for the larger group

<h3>Ratio and proportions</h3>

From the question, we have that 2.5 cups of sugar can be used to make recipes for 6 people that is;

6 people = 2.5 cups of sugar

In order to calculate for 35 people, we will have;

35 people  = x

Taking the ratio of the expressions

6/35 = 2.5/x

6x = 87.5

x = 87.5/6

x = 14.6

Hence your father will require 14.6 cups of sugar for the larger group

What is the vertex of y=(x-2)-7
Zina [86]

Answer:

The vertex of this equation is (2, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the vertex of this equation we start with the base form of the vertex form.

y = a(x - h) + k

With this equation (h, k) is the vertex. You can see that 2 lines up with h and -7 lines up with k. This shows that (2, -7) is the vertex.

If a triangle is a right triangle, then the other two angles must be acute.
olga55 [171]
The sum of the angles in any triangle is 180 degrees. If one of the three angles is 90 degrees (a right angle) the the sum of the other two angles is 90 degrees. Therefore each of the other two angles must be acute.
The statement is TRUE.
