Total amount of ground beef is 7.5 lbs

<h3>What is unitary method?</h3>

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

a) The recipe for the meat loaf used by Jenny can serve a total of 8 people.

Total people = 40

Number of each ingredient

= 40 / 8

= 5

b) As, recipe contains 1 1/2 lb (1.5 lbs) of ground beef,

So, Total amount of ground beef = 1.5 lbs * 5 = 7.5 lbs

Your question is incomplete, probably the complete question/missing part is:

Jenny is throwing a surprise birthday party for her best friend Katie. She has decided to make Katie’s favorite dish, meat loaf. There will be a total of 40 people at the party. Answer the following questions:

• The recipe says it serves 8 people. By what number should Jenny multiply each ingredient to make enough meat loaf for everyone? 5

• The recipe calls for 1 1/2 lbs. of ground beef. How much ground beef will Jenny need to make enough meat loaf for everyone?

What is the recursive formula for the geometric sequence with this explicit formula?

IRINA_888 [86]

For the given geometric sequence, we have:

$a_1 = 9\\\\a_n = (-1/3)*a_{n-1}$

So the correct option is B.

<h3>Which is the recursive formula?</h3>

Here we have the geometric sequence:

$a_n = 9*(-\frac{1}{3} )^{(n - 1)}$

To get the initial value of the geometric sequence, we just need to replace n by 1, so we get:

$a_1 = 9*(-\frac{1}{3} )*(1 - 1) = 9$

Now, notice that the common ratio is (-1/3), this means that each term of the sequence is (-1/3) times the previous term.

$a_n = (-1/3)*a_{n-1}$

Then the correct option is B.

You roll a 6-sided die.<br>What is P(prime)?<br>Write your answer as a percentage.<br>Submit

Cloud [144]

You roll a 6-sided die. The probability of getting prime is 50%.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, that we have rolled a 6 – sided die.

We have to find the P(prime) as percentage.

Now, It means that we have to find the probability of getting a prime number on the face.

On rolling a six sided die, the total possible outcomes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Number of possible outcomes = 6

We have to get a prime number on rolling a die

The prime numbers in possible outcomes are 2, 3, 5

So number of favorable outcomes = 3

$\text {Probability of an event as percentage }=\frac{\text { favourable number of outcomes }}{\text { total number of outcomes }} \times 100$

$\text {Probability of getting prime number on face of die }=\frac{3}{6} \times 100$

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { P(prime) }=\frac{1}{2} \times 100} \\\\ {\text { P(prime) }=50 \%}\end{array}$

Hence, probability of getting prime is 50%.
