Answer: 40 people

Step-by-step explanation: 1 person will eat 1/4 of a pound, which means that 4 people will eat 1 pound of turkey because 1/4 x 4 = 1.

If 4 people will eat 1 pound of turkey, that means we can multiply 4 x 10 and 1 x 10 to find the amount of people that will eat 10 pounds of turkey for dinner.

4 x 10 = 40 people and 1 x 10 = 10 pounds of turkey.

So, 40 people will eat a 10-pound turkey for dinner to finish it.

Complete each ordered pair so that it is a solution of the given linear equation. x - 3y=4;(.-3), (-11, ) The first ordered pair

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 3y = 4

x - 3(-3) = 4

x + 9 = 4

x = -5

(-5, -3)

-11 - 3y = 4

- 3y = 15

y = -5

(-11, -5)

I don't see how (0, -3) could be a solution to the equation.

What Is 5 multilplied by 9 Like Bendi Had 5 papers and 9 paper clips he wanted to mutilply with 5 and 9

gavmur [86]

Just you need to multiply both variables

Multiply 5 and 9 we will get our required solution

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 5\times 9$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 45$

Write the standard form of the equation of the circle with the given characteristics. Center: (3, 5); Solution point: (−2, 17)

Angelina_Jolie [31]

$\text{we know that the general equation of the circle is }\\
\\
(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2\\
\\
\text{where, (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius.}\\
\\
\text{Given that the centered of the circle is at }(h,k)=(3,5)\\
\text{and a solution point on circle is (-2,17).}\\
\\
\text{so the radius of the circle will be the distance between center and the }$

$\text{solution point. so using the distance formula, we have}\\
\\
\text{Radius, }r=\sqrt{(-2-3)^2+(17-5)^2}\\
\\
\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{25+144}\\
\\
\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{169}\\
\\
\Rightarrow r=13\\
\\
\text{Hence using the standard for of circle, equation of circle with center}\\
(h,k)=(3,5) \text{ and radius r=13 is}\\
\\
(x-3)^2+(y-5)^2=(13)^2\\
\\
\Rightarrow (x-3)^2+(y-5)^2=169$

Oliver and Lenny started hiking a hill simultaneously from the bottom to the top. Oliver hiked at a speed of 5 km/h during the f

Papessa [141]

Answer:

Oliver and Lenny reached the top of the hill at the same time

The proportion of time Oliver spent hiking to that of Lenny is 1:1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Oliver's speed = 5 km/h during the first half, then decreased his speed to 4 km/h during the second half.

Lenny's speed = 4 km/h during the first half, then increased his speed to 5 km/h in the second half.

2. Who reached the top of the hill first? What is the proportion of time he spent hiking to that of his friend?

Let's assume the distance from the bottom to the top of the hill is 10 kilometers for calculating the time it will take Oliver and Lenny to reach the top of the hill:

Speed = Distance/Time

Time = Distance/Speed

Oliver = Time of hiking first 5 km + Time of hiking second 5 km

Lenny = Time of hiking first 5 km + Time of hiking second 5 km

Oliver = 5/5 + 5/4

Oliver = 1 + 5/4 = 2 1/4 hours

Lenny = 5/4 + 5/5

Lenny = 5/4 + 1 = 2 1/4 hours

Oliver and Lenny reached the top of the hill at the same time

The proportion of time Oliver spent hiking to that of Lenny is 1:1
