Answer:
8 pizzas can serve 16 guests.
Step-by-step explanation:
So the caterer usually prepares 4 pizzas, but now she prepared twice as many, which means that now there are 4 • 2 = 8 pizzas.
Also, there is an estimation that each guest will eat 1/2 of a pizza.
In order to answer how many guests will 8 pizzas serve, we need to write an equation (pizzas per guest multiplied with number of guests equals the number of pizzas). Let's mark the unknown number of guests with x:
1/2 • x = 8
x = 8 / 1/2
x = 16
So, if each guest eats 1/2 of a pizza, then 8 pizzas will be enough to serve 16 guests.
H is the number of hours Miguel could practice the piano each week.
Miguel goal is to practice the piano more than x hours per week.
h >= x
hence depending on the amount ot hours needed to practice each week, you have to set them to be the minimum, and any other larger quantity satisfies the proposition as well.
