Answer:

\frac{x}{c*s} weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

SO in order to calculate that you need to first multiply the number of cups of soup a week by student that the cafeteria need, by the number of students, so if you have S number of student and each needs C amount of cups of soup, the cups of soup total will be CS.

So in order to know how many weeks will X number of cups will last you just divide the number of cups by CS:

\frac{x}{c*s} weeks

And that´s the answer.

Answer:

x/(cs)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the number of weeks we're feeding students soup.

w\,\text{weeks}\times\dfrac{c\,\text{cans}}{\text{student}\cdot\text{week}}\times s\,\text{students}=x\,\text{cans}\\\\w=\dfrac{x}{c\cdot s}\qquad\text{divide by $c\cdot s$}

On a coordinate plane, triangle J K L has points (negative 2, 1), (0, 3), and (2, negative 1). Reflect the figure over the line
svetlana [45]

Answer:

J'(2, 1)

K'(0, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

On a coordinate plane, coordinates of the points J, K and L are (-2, 1), (0, 3) and (2, -1) respectively.

If we reflect these points over the line x = 0 or y-axis, rule to be followed is

(x, y) → (-x, y)

Only sign of x coordinates get changed while y coordinates remain the same.

Following this rule coordinates of the images of J' and K' will be

J(-2, 1) → J'(2, 1)

and K(0, 3) → K'(0, 3)

Find the distance between the points
Tasya [4]

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2    }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 4)

d = \sqrt{(6-2)^2+(4-1)^2}

   = \sqrt{4^2+3^2}

   = \sqrt{16+9}

    = \sqrt{25}

    = 5
