Alemon bar recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups of flour for every 1/3 teaspoon of lemon zest. could you increase the recipe proportionately by using 15 cups of flour and 6 teaspoons of lemon zest?

No. To have gotten to 15 cups of flour, I multiplied by 10. When I multiplied 1/3 by 10, however, it did not show 6. It showed 3.333...

Your answer is No

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.

step-by-step explanation:

to determine whether a given function is even, we simply substitute x with -x in the expression. if the result after simplification is identical to the original equation, then the function is said to be even other wise odd.

f(-x) = (-x)^2 - (-x) + 8

      = x^2 + x +8

the resulting function is not identical to the original one;

f(-x) ≠ f(x)

therefore, f(x) is not an even function
