15/2 = 7.5 can per dat

7.5/7 = 1.1 = 1 can per man

1 x 4 = 4 cans per day

4 x 7 = 28

Final answer would be 28 if you round. If you don’t the answer would come out to be 30.8. Take your pick.

If 15 cans of food are needed for 7 men for 2 days, then 30 cans of food are needed for 4 men for 7 days. 

Assuming that the men eat every day, without skipping a day, then the first part of the sentence is basically saying 15 cans can feed 14 men. There are seven men who can survive off part of the 15 cans on day one, and seven men who can survive off of what's left of the 15 cans on day two.  The 15 cans have the potential to feed 14 men in one day basically. Applying this same theory, x number of cans has the potential to feed 28 (that's 4 men for 7 days). If these cans are the same size and are equal in terms of how filling its contents are, then we can set up a proportion.

15/14 = x/28
If 15 cans of food can feed 14 men, then x cans of food can feed 28 men.
Cross Multiply
14x = 420
Divide both sides by 14
x = 30

30 cans of food can feed 4 men for 7 days. Hope this helps!

Answer:

NCA = GRU

Step-by-step explanation:

Since triangle CAN = triangle RUG

This means

C=R

A=U

N = G

We can change the order of the letters for the triangle in the first, but then they have to be corresponding in the second

ANC = UGR

NCA = GRU

ACN = URG

CNA= RGU

Answer: Option 3 = 4

Step-by-step explanation: f(x) = 6 - 2x

f(0) = 6 - 2(0) Range = 6

f(2) = 6 - 2(2) Range = 2

f(4) = 6 - 2(4) Range = -2

f(6) = 6 - 2(6) Range = -6

f(8) = 6 - 2(8) Range = -10

The only one that doesn't belong is 4 option 3.

You're welcome!!

What is the formula to calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism with a cube removed?
ch4aika [34]
<span> 2ab + 2bc + 2ac the formula for the rectangular prism and i'm guessing you would find the answer to this than you would find your formula for the cube which is </span><span><span>6 a </span>2 and you would find that answer. 
</span>You would take your total for the rectangular prism answer and subtract the cube answer from it and you would probably get your answer. 
hope that helped?!

Madeline drove 180 miles in 4 hours. If she drove at a constant rate, how far did shetravel in one hour?On the double number lin
Tcecarenko [31]

We have a question on motion with the elements of distance, time taken and speed.

This question in particular is asking us for distance per unit time (in this case, hours).

We are required to find out how much distnace is covered in on hour and our approach will be as follows:

\text{Speed= }\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{time}}=\frac{180\text{miles}}{4\text{hours}}=\frac{45\text{ miles}}{1\text{ hour}}

This right here just tells us that 4 hours, Madeline covered 180 miles and since her rate was constant (equal distances in equal times), then she also covered 45 miles in an hour.

Now we plot our number line.

The population of a small town can be modeled by the equation where t is the number of years since the collection of the populat
liberstina [14]

The true statements is the population was 4800 when the collection of data began. (3rd option)

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

An exponential equation can be described as an equation with exponents. The exponent is usually a variable.

The general form of exponential equation is f(x) = e^{x}

Where:

  • x = the variable
  • e = constant

When a population grows at an exponential rate, it usually has compound rate of growth. Compound growth refers to the geometric progression of a variable.

The exponential equation used to represent an exponential growth usually have this form:

FV = PV (1 + r)^n

Where:

  • FV = future population
  • PV = present population
  • r = rate of growth
  • n = number of years

Given this exponential equation : f(x) = 4800 (1.02)^t

  • 4800 = initial population or population when the data collection began
  • 2 % = rate of growth
  • t = number of years
