Answer:

Thus, she has enough pizza left for the meeting.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, Cyndi cut pizza in 12 pieces.

Also, She ate 1/6 of pizza yesterday afternoon.

⇒ She ate = 12\times\frac{1}{6} = 2\ \text{pieces}

Her Brother ate 1/5 of left pizza

⇒ Her Brother ate = 10\times\frac{1}{5} = 2\ \text{pieces}

Then she has left pieces of pizza = 12 - (2 + 2) = 8 pieces

And also that much pieces she wants for the club meeting.

Thus, she has enough pizza left for the meeting.

Cyndi does have enough pizza for the meeting because she ends up 8 slices of pizza left.
She ate 1/6 of the pizza which left her with 10 slices left (she ate two slices of the 12).
Then her brother ate 1/5 of the pizza which means that he also ate two slices (because 1/5 of 10 is 2).
That means she has 8 slices left: enough for her meeting.

tom took a trip of 1,020 miles. he traveled by train at 55 miles an hour and the same number of hours by plane at 285mph how man
Kamila [148]
D = vt

Distance traveled by train
d = 55t
Distance traveled by plane
d = 285t
Total distance
d = 1020

So, you do:
distance traveled by plane + distance traveled by train =  total distance
(55t) + (285t) = 1020

Solve for t
t = 3 hours

t is the time traveled by each so 3 hrs traveled by train and 3 hrs traveled by plane

Total time  = 3 + 3 = 6 hours
