Taylor is mixing fruit punch. the recipe calls for 2 tsp of sugar for each 8oz glass of punch . taylor has a 3 gal punch bowl. how many cups of sugar are needed to fill the bowl with punch?

I would put it like this .

Let x be punch bowl

Ratio: (Sugar/glass)

(3) * (2/8) = x

6/8 = x

0.75= x

So you will need 3/4 cups of sugar

Or if easier for you cross multiply the set up same ratio so would look like .

2/8=x/3. Now do cross multiply

2×3=8×x

6=8x

Now divide

6/8=x

You will get 0.75 which is 3/4 cups

answer: evaluate the objective function at each vertex to determine which - and -values, if any, maximize or minimize the function. example: find the minimum value and maximum value of the objective function f ( x , y ) = 4 x + 5 y , subject to the following constraints
