Arecipe for making popcorn requires 2 tablespoons of butter for every 1/3 cup of popcorn kernels. at this rate, how much butter is required if 1 cup of popcorn kernels are used?

6 tablespoons

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 *3=1 3*2=6

the equation of the parallel line would be y = 2x + 9

step-by-step explanation:

to start we need to find the slope of the original line. we can do that by looking at the coefficient of x, which is 2

since the slope of the original line is 2 and parallel lines have the same slope, we know the new line will also have 2 slope. now we can use that along with the point given in point-slope form to get the find equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 2(x + 2)

y - 5 = 2x + 4

y = 2x + 9
