Abby is preparing fruit punch for her party. she starts with a bowl filled with liquid that has 1/2 fruit juice and 1/2 sprite, but she decides it's too fruity. so she pours out 1/4 of the liquid, and then fills the bowl up again with sprite. what fraction of the punch is now sprite?

Sprite: 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume the amount poured out was equal of both liquids:

Convert them into eighths:

Fruit juice: 4/8

Sprite: 4/8

Now to remove 1/4 total we need to remove 1 of each:

Fruit juice: 3/8

Sprite: 3/8

Now add those two we took off to the Sprite:

Fruit juice: 3/8

Sprite: 5/8

correct

step-by-step explanation:

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'
