Ella has 0.5 lbs of sugar. how much water should she add to make the following concentrations? tell ella how much syrup she will have in each case.
1.5% syrup?

Ella has to add 32.833 lbs of water to get 33.333 lbs of syrup.

Solution:

Ella has 0.5 lbs of sugar. Let x lbs be the amount of water Ella should add to get the 1.5% of syrup,

On writing the proportion,

To get 1.5% syrup Ella should add 32.833 lbs of water. The total weight of syrup is 33.333 lbs.

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
