The recipe is enough for Lucy and 3 friends.

And cups of smoothie remains after Lucy gives one of her friends 3/4 cups of smoothie.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a mistake in the question the quantity of yogurt should be 1 1/2 cup.

Given:

Lucy is making a smoothie using ingredients:

1 1/3 cups banana  = 4/3 cups banana.

1/2 cup yogurt  = 3/2 cups yogurt.

1 cup strawberries.

3/4 cup orange juice.

Now, to find will this recipe make enough for Lucy and 3 friends to have 1 cup of smoothie and quantity of smoothie remains after Lucy gives one of her friends 3/4 cups of smoothie.

So, we add the given ingredients to get the total quantity of smoothie:

Taking the same denominator we get:

Now, to get the smoothie remains after Lucy gives one of her friends 3/4 cups of smoothie:

Subtracting 3/4 cups of smoothie from the total quantity of smoothie:

Therefore, the recipe is enough for Lucy and 3 friends. And cups of smoothie remains after Lucy gives one of her friends 3/4 cups of smoothie.

Make "a" the subject of the formula.

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

Isolate the a. Add 2 to both sides

T = a - 2

T (+2) = a - 2 (+2)

a = T + 2

a = T + 2 is your answer
