Answer:

10 pounds. Hope this helps!!!!

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2 pound serves 8 people you can express that as a ratio of 2:8 so to get 8 people to 40 you multiply by 5 so you must do the same for the amount of pasta so 2 multiplied  5 equals 10.

If Y varies directly as X and Y= 79 when X= 49, Find Y if X = 9
ryzh [129]

Answer:

y = 14.5

Step-by-step explanation:

given that y varies directly as x

mathematically,

y ∝ x

y = kx .............................................. where k is the constant of proportionality.

k = y /x

given that

y = 79

x = 49

k = 79/49

k = 1.61

to find y when x = 9

from

y = kx

y = 1.61 × 9

y = 14.5

therefore the value of y when x = 9 in ths variation is evaluated to be equals to 14.5

Enter the equivalent distance in km in the box.
devlian [24]
100 cm = 1m

To find 60 000cm, multiply by 600 :
60 000 cm = 600m                

To convert from m to km, divide by 1000 :
600m ÷ 1000 = 0.6km

balu736 [363]
There as 16 cards, 2 of which are wildlife cards, so the ratio is 16 : 2. We can simplify it by dividing both sides by 2, so we'll get the ratio of 8 : 1.

I hope this helps! :)
