Each deli sandwich made uses 1/4 pound of roast beef. Marisa started with 5 pounds of roast beef and now has 3/4 pounds left.

1 answer:

8 0

Let us assume the number of sandwiches made by Deli = x
Amount of roast beef required for making 1 sandwich = (1/4) pound
Total amount of beef that Marisa started with = 5 pounds
Amount of beef that was left = (3/4) pounds
Then
[(1/4) * x] + (3/4) = 5
(x/4) + (3/4) = 5
(x + 3)/4 = 5
x + 3 = 5 * 4
x + 3 = 20
x = 20 - 3
= 17
So we can see from the above deduction that 17 Deli sandwiches was made by Marisa. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

What can you conclude and reason

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

ABC is an isosceles triangle.

Because it consists of two congruent triangles created by CD, side AC = CB, making it an isosceles triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

I can conclude that triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle.

Perpendicular means intersecting at 90°. Bisector means intersecting at the midpoint, halfway between the two ends.

Since CD is dropped from vertex C and is a perpendicular bisector of AB, angle C is also bisected.

Therefore angle C for both triangles CDA and CDB is of equal measure.

We know angle D for both triangle CDA and CDB is of equal measure, 90°, because CD is a <em>perpendicular </em>bisector of AB.

The two triangles also share the same side CD.

Triangles CDA and CDB are congruent for having 2 equal angles and 1 equal side (ASA property).

Since they are congruent, AD = AB and AC = CB. Therefore triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle.

If the ice shop has only enough cocoa to make 4 gallons of chocolate ice cream, how many gallons of strawberry ice cream can the

tankabanditka [31]

The complete questions is:

The ice cream shop needs 5 pounds of strawberries for every gallon of strawberry ice cream. the shop chooses to produce 4 gallons of chocolate ice cream. how many pounds of strawberries should the shop purchase?

Pounds of strawberry ice cream needed to be bought by the shop exists 20 pounds.

<h3>How many gallons of strawberry ice cream can the shop efficiently produce?</h3>

The ice cream shop requires 5 pounds of strawberries for every gallon of strawberry ice cream and the shop chooses to make 4 gallons of ice cream,

Quantity of chocolate ice cream created in the shop = 4 gallons

Quantity of strawberries needed for each gallon of ice cream = 5 pounds

Pounds of strawberries needed to be bought by the shop = Quantity of chocolate ice cream created by the shop $*$ Quantity of strawberries needed for each gallon of ice cream
