No, even with the 2 cups of sugar per gallon it seems to make sweetend tea it still isn’t super saturating the mixture. It might make it take longer to dissolve but it’s not because the tea is fully saturated. They could put 4 cute per gallon and it still wouldn’t be fully saturated, even when cold.
This is correct, it’s sad to see that you’re getting downvoted for pointing that out. People aren’t seeing that It’s about how rate of dissolution is affected by temperature, not saturation point. Even in the south it isn’t supersaturated (although it does get very close to saturation when chilled with some brands). More would still dissolve when cold, just very, very slowly (‘vigorously stirring overnight’ slowly…)
Not quite. It gets close to saturation with some of the sweetest brands, but typically no. See below comment for where this confusion is coming from. Remember that rate of dissolution varies as temperature…
The opposite of age/2+7 is (age-7)2, not age2-7. I.E. the min age for a 29-year-old would be 21, not 18, and the age whose min is 18, I.E. the max for an 18-year-old, would be 22.
The max age formula is pointless and contradicts the minimum age formula. For 29 the min age based on the min age equation is 21.5 which I’d say can be rounded up to 22, which sounds more reasonable than a 29 year old dating an 18 year old, which isn’t illegal sure, but I’m sure plenty of people would be raising an eyebrow at it.
That max age equation would mean that a max age for 14 would be 21. In contrast the min age for a 21 year old is 17.5, which can be rounded up to 18. Yymv on that one in particular, but I’m sure we can all agree that a 21 year old dating an 18 year old is a lot less sus than them dating a 14 year old. The minimum age formula seems fine enough on its own, not necessarily a universal rule but enough of a guideline to go by.

The minimum age formula seems fine enough on its own, not necessarily a universal rule but enough of a guideline to go by generally. If you want to calculate based on the younger age, just re-arrange the formula. With the older age being AgeO and the younger age being ageY, you go from ageY = (AgeO/2) + 7 to AgeO = (ageY - 7)*2.
Nope. If your age minimum for a partner y is determined by your age x with the function:
y = 1/2 x + 7
then the point where y = x is at y - 7 = 1/2 x. Setting y to x leads us to x - 7 = x / 2, which happens at x = 14.
At x = 18, y = 18/2 + 7 = 9 + 7 = 16.
Relatedly, if we invert the function, y - 7 = 1/2 x, thus 2y - 14 = x, which gives us the theoretical maximum for a possible partner. If a possible partner is older than that, you’d be understood to call them a cougar, or whatever the male equivalent is.
My favorite feature of the x/2+7 rule is that it implies you shouldn’t be dating below the age of 14. Run any number lower than 14 through it to see what I mean. You can’t reasonably say a 6 year old should only date people older than 10 and also younger than -2.
