Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be  'x'

x - 14 = 2 + 9x

Subtract x from both sides

- 14 = 2 + 9x - x

-14 = 2 + 8x

Subtract 2 from both sides

-14-2 = 8x

 -16 = 8x

Divide both sides by 8

-16/8 = x

x = -2

Well, we know the amount of cups of sugar it calls per 1/2 teaspoon, so all we need to do to find the amount of cups of sugar per teaspoon is multiply by 2, since 1/2 teaspoon * 2 = 1 teaspoon.

2/3 * 2 = 1 1/3

The unit rate is 1 1/3 cups per teaspoon
Hope that helped =)
