Answer:

320 cups of soup.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A chef planning for a large banquet thinks that 2 out of every 5 dinner guests will order his soup appetizer.

He expects 800 guests at the banquet.

Question asked:

How many cups of soup he should prepare ?

Solution:

Ratio of soup appetizer to the number of guest =  2 : 5

Now, let number of cups of soup prepare for 800 guests = x

Now, as we have to find through <u>equivalent ratios,</u> we can write it as:-

<em>2 : 5 = </em>x<em> : 800</em>

\frac{2}{5} =\frac{x}{800} \\\\ By\ cross\ multiplication\\5\times x=2\times800\\5x=1600\\By\ dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\x=320

Thus, he should prepare 320 cups of soup for 800 guests.

Find the value of each variable. If you give the decimal value, round to the nearest tenth.
DiKsa [7]

u = 10.4 and v = 12

Solution:

In the given 2 sides of a triangle are 60°, 60°.

Sum of all the angles of a triangle = 180°

60° + 60° + third angle = 180°

⇒ third angle = 180° – 60° – 60°

⇒ third angle = 60°

All angles are equal, therefore the given triangle is an equilateral triangle.

⇒ All sides are equal in length.

⇒ v = 12

The line drawn from the top angle divides the triangle into two equal parts

and the line is perpendicular.

12 ÷ 2 = 6

Using Pythagoras theorem,

\text{Base}^2+\text{Opposite}^2=\text{Hypotenuse}^2

⇒ 6^2+\text{opposite}^2=12^2

⇒ 36+\text{opposite}^2=144

⇒ \text{opposite}^2=108

⇒ \text{opposite}=6\sqrt3=10.4

⇒ u = 10.4

Hence, u = 10.4 and v = 12.
