Peggy sue decided to enter her famous “Five- Alarm chili” at her local chili cooking contest. Normally, she needs 5 tomatoes to make enough chili for her family of 7

A. How many tomatoes should she expect to use to make her famous recipe for 100 people?

b. When she gets to the contest, she realizes that she only packed 58 tomatoes. How many people can she expect to feed?

Answers

A. If she needs 5 tomatoes for a family of seven, then we need to find how many tomatoes it takes to feed only one person and then multiply that by 100z

5/7 = 0.714… tomatoes per person

Multiply this by one hundred

0.714 * 100 = 71.43 tomatoes.

Check:

5/7 = ?/100

Solve for ?

? = 71.43 tomatoes, but you technically can’t bring 0.43 tomatoes, so round that to 72 tomatoes

B. We would need to solve for

5/7 = 58/?

? = 81.2 people, but you should round down here because there isn’t enough chili for that 82 person, and there are not 20% of a person walking around looking for some chili.

Answers

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

11x - 20 = 4x + 15

Add 20 to both sides

11x = 4x + 15 + 20

11x = 4x + 35

Subtract 4x from both sides

11x - 4x = 35

7x = 35

Divide both sides by 7

x = 35/7

What is the value of 2m² + 12 when m = 3?
A. 24
B. 30

D. 38

Answers

Answer:

B. 30

Step-by-step explanation:

2m^2 + 12

m = 3

2(3)^2 + 12

3 squared is 9

2(9) + 12

2 times 9 is 18

18 + 12 = 30

2m^2 + 12 = 30

So we subtitute 3 to any "m" in your problem so,

2m^2+12

2(3)^2+12

2(9)+12

18+12

How much do you need to subtract from 53 over 6 to make 8

Answers

48 over 6 is equal to 8 so subtract 5 from 53

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about how this question is written out mathematically.

5/36−x=8

You’re looking for x.

When rewritten, we can move x to the right side for a positive x, then we can move 8 over to the left side for -8.

53/6−8=x

In simple fraction form 8=8/1

But here's where we've got a problem. The denominators aren’t alike… 6≠16≠1

In this case, multiplying 8/1 by 6/6 is the easiest way to get a common denominator for both, 6.

Multiply both the numerator (8) and denominator (1) by 6. So, now we have 48/6

Now that we have common denominators, we can subtract.

53/6 - 48/6

= 5/6

To check:

53/6 - 5/6 = 48/6

48/6 = 8

You have a $50 gift card to go shopping for school supplies. You buy 2 packs of pencils, 5 notebooks. 6 folders, 1 pack of pens, 3 packs of paper, 1 pack of highlighters, and 2 binders.

pens: $1.57

pencils: $1.98

folder: $0.75

highlighter: $3.45

notebooks: $2.95

binders: $3.55

paper: $0.69



What value represents the change in value of the gift card after buying your school supplies ?

Answers

The value of the gift card declined by $37.40.

The total cost of all the items purchased has to be determined.

Total cost of pens = $1.57 x 1 = $1.57Total cost of pencils = $1.98 x 2 = $3.96Total cost of folders = $0.75 x 6 = $4.50 Total cost of highlighter: $3.45 x 1 = $3.45Total cost of notebooks: $2.95 x 5 = $14.75Total cost of binders: $3.55 x 2 = $7.10Total cost of paper: $0.69 x 3 = $2.07

The sum of these items is $37.40

Change in value = value of the gift card - cost of items

$50 - $37.40 = $12.60

A similar question was answered here: https://brainly.com/question/19891026

Answer:

Total cost of pens = $1.57 x 1 = $1.57

Total cost of pencils = $1.98 x 2 = $3.96

Total cost of folders = $0.75 x 6 = $4.50

Total cost of highlighter: $3.45 x 1 = $3.45

Total cost of notebooks: $2.95 x 5 = $14.75

Total cost of binders: $3.55 x 2 = $7.10

Total cost of paper: $0.69 x 3 = $2.07

Answer:

X = 2

equation x [tex]\leq[/tex] 2

Step-by-step explanation:

You Factor out the common term 2 which will look like [tex]\frac{2(2x+1)}{5} \leq 2[/tex]

You do this because if you multiply 2*2x and 2*1 you will get 4x+2

Now you will multiply 5 on both sides to turn it into an equation and not a fraction [tex](5)\frac{2(2x+1)}{5}\leq 2 (5)[/tex]

So you would cross out the 5 on the left and the 5 as the denominator to make this an equation and multiply 2 by 5 to get ten your equation will look like            [tex]2(2x+1)\leq 10[/tex]

So now that you have your equation you divide both sides by 2 [tex]\frac{2(2x+1)}{2} \leq \frac{10}{2}[/tex]

you cross out the 2 on the left and 2 as the denominator and divide 10 and 2 to get 5.         [tex]2x+1\leq 5[/tex]  

Now you subtract one from both sides    [tex]2x+1\leq 5\\-1=-1\\2x=4[/tex]

you'll get 2x=4

divide both sides by 2 to get x=2

To check you will insert 2 into the original equation [tex]\frac{4x+2}{5} \leq 2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4(2)+2}{5} \leq 2 = \\\frac{10}{5} \leq 2=\\2\leq 2[/tex]

since the sign means less than or equal to 2 you can say that [tex]2\leq 2[/tex] is a correct inequality equation

A New Discovery about the Brain (1) But there is still one part of the human body that confuses scientists: the brain. (2) Although scientists have made extraordinary progress in understanding how the brain functions, there still is much to learn. (3) In fact, scientists are only now beginning to discover and understand the lymphatic system of the brain. (4) The lymphatic system performs an important role in the overall functioning of the body, much like the circulatory system. (5) The lymphatic system also moves things around the body. (6) Instead of bringing the body what it needs through the blood, however, the lymphatic system carries away what the body doesnt need, such as germs and waste products, through a fluid called lymph. (7) The lymph then travels to the various lymph nodes throughout the body. (8) As the lymph is filtered through the lymph nodes, the nodes respond to any germs by mounting an appropriate defense. (9) Scientists have been stumped by this process. (10) But in 2012 scientists found that the brain has its own type of lymphatic system. (11) Dr. Maiken Nedergaard and her team of researchers were surprised and excited to discover the first evidence of a tightly interwoven system that rapidly removes waste from the brain. (12) The brains blood vessels have fluid that is running along the side of them, the team determined, and this fluid is what is carrying waste away from the brain. (13) However, unlike the lymphatic systemwhich operates on a slow, continuous basisthis newly discovered system operates only when a person is asleep, washing away waste by flooding the brain quickly with fluid. (14) Now you have one more reason to get a good nights sleep. (15) It took three more years for scientists to discover the specific vessels in the brain that are part of this lymphatic system. (16) In 2015, researchers were able to provide proof of a lymphatic system in the brain when they actually managed to see the vessels that are used to flood the brain and carry away the waste. Even though what this relatively new discovery means is still not entirely clear, researchers are already making connections. (18) For example, many brain diseases, including Alzheimers disease, involve the accumulation of specific proteins in the brain. (19) Although it is too early to jump to conclusions, it is reasonable to infer that these diseases may be connected in some way to the ability of this newly discovered lymphatic system to remove waste from the brain. (20) In the future, scientists will attempt to prove this connection. (21) The discovery of an entirely new system opens up exciting new areas of research and inquiry. (22) It may offer more opportunities for discoveries as researchers increase their understanding of how this system functions and how it is related to health and disease. (23) Eventually, we may gain a fuller understanding of the mysterious workings of the human brain. 1) Reese needs to improve the introduction of his essay.
