Question

2. Jada is making lemonade for a get-together with her friends. She expects a total of 5 to 8 people to be there (including herself). She plans to prepare 2 cups of lemonade for each person.

The lemonade recipe calls for 4 scoops of lemonade powder for each quart of water.
Each quart is equivalent to 4 cups.
Let n represent the number of people at the get-together, c the number of cups of water, & the number of scoops of lemonade powder.
Select all the mathematical statements that represent the quantities and constraints in the situation.
A. 5 8. 5 ≤n ≤8
C. c = 2n
E. 10 < c < 16
F. 10 ≤ 1 ≤ 16

Answer 1

The mathematical statements that represent the quantities and constraints in the situation are: 5 ≤ n ≤ 8, c = 2n, and 10 < c < 16.

The mathematical statements that represent the quantities and constraints in the situation are:

A. 5 ≤ n ≤ 8

C. c = 2n

E. 10 < c < 16

Statement A represents the range of values for the number of people at the get-together, which is between 5 and 8, including 5 and 8.

Statement C represents the relationship between the number of cups of water (c) and the number of people (n), which is that the number of cups of water is equal to 2 times the number of people.

Statement E represents the range of values for the number of cups of water (c), which is between 10 and 16, but not including 10 or 16.
