Answer: 500 pieces of wheat
Explanation:
First: set up the proportion
Cookies:wheat = 8:2
Simplify = 4:1
We need to find how much wheat he needs for 2,000 cookies.
We need to assign a variable for wheat
Wheat = W
If Josh needs to make 2,000 cookies he would need W amount of wheat
Original proportion = 4:1
For 2,000 cookies = 2,000:W
To get from 4 to 2,000
2,000/4 = 500
So W/1 = 500
Isolate the variable:
w/1 (1) = 500/1
W = 500
Answer:
A function is a rule that assigns each value of the independent variable to exactly one value of the dependent variable.

To solve this you will need to know the Pythagorean therum A^2+B^2=C^2
24^+B^2=28^2
576+B^2=784
-576. -576
B^2=208
Square root of 208 is about 14.42 and that is the length of the wall
