Answer:

C. 1/4 lb of chicken per person

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the rate of change for the situation.

A chef cooks 9 lbs of chicken for 36 people and 17 lbs of chicken for 68 people.

A. 9/17lb per person

B. 4 lb per person

C. 1/4 lb per person

D. 36 people

Solution

9 lbs of chicken for 36 people

Chicken per person = Total lbs of chicken / Total number of people

= 9 lbs / 36 people

Chicken per person = 1/4 lb of chicken per person

17 lbs of chicken for 68 people

Chicken per person = Total lbs of chicken / Total number of people

= 17 lbs / 68 people

= 1/4 lb of chicken

Chicken per person = 1/4 lb of chicken per person

Therefore, the rate of change of the situation = 1/4 lb of chicken per person

The wildflowers at a national park have been decreasing in numbers. There were 1200 wildflowers in the first year that the park
bonufazy [111]

Year      New flowers

1                 1200

2                 300

3                   75

There were 1200 wildflowers in the first year that the park started tracking them. Since then, there have been one fourth as many new flowers each year

Initially there are 1200 flowers and start decreasing by \frac{1}{4}

So first term is 1200 and common ratio is \frac{1}{4}.

Its a geometric sequence so summation becomes

i =1∑ ∞ 1200(\frac{1}{4})^{i-1}

Now we find the sum

We use sum formula

Sum = \frac{a}{1-r}

Where a is the first term , a= 1200

r is the common ratio , r= 1/4

Sum = \frac{1200}{1-(\frac{1}{4})}

Sum = \frac{1200}{\frac{3}{4}}

Sum = 1600 wildflowers
