How does recipe conversion factors work? For example, if I have a soup that is originally 24 servings and has 16 oz of fish, and I need it to be done in 10 servings, what would the calculation be to get the right amount of fish.

You have to find the unit rate, which in this case means the amount of fish you need per serving of soup.

If 16 oz of fish makes 24 servings, then 16/24 oz = 2/3 oz makes 1 serving.

Now multiply both quantities by 10, so that 10 servings require 20/3 oz ≈ 6.67 oz of fish.

A more direct way to do this is to solve for x in the following equation:

(16 oz fish) / (24 servings) = (x oz fish) / (10 servings)

Then (omitting units)

x = 10 • 16 / 24 = 20/3

5x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

you should always add the diagrams and graphs we cannot see. this particular question is kind of borderline because we can make a graph for you.

(f + g)x = -x^2 +3x + 5 + x^2 + 2x

(f + g)x = 5x + 5

the graph of z = 5x + 5 is shown below. always use desmos when in doubt.

answer: translate the circles so they share a common center point and dilate circle y by a scale factor of 3.
