Answer:

i) Number of people in club = 12

ii) 96 ounces of fruit punch for 12people

iii) 24 ounces of cheese for 12 people

iv) Priya's budget for poetry club meeting in dollars = $7.87

Step-by-step explanation:

We are not given the options for the equations that could represent the quantities and constraints in this situation. We can tell we are to represent the information given above.

Number of people in the club = 12

8 ounces of fruit punch per person

For 12 people = 12×8 = 96 ounces of fruit punch

2 ounces of cheese per person

For 12 people = 12×2 = 24 ounces of cheese

A package of cheese = 16 ounces

The costs for 1package = $3.99

The costs for 16 ounces of cheese = $3.99

The cost for 24 ounces of cheese = (24×3.99)/16 = 5.985

The cost for 24 ounces of cheese = $5.99

One-gallon jug of fruit punch = 128 ounces

The cost of One-gallon jug of fruit punch = $2.50

The costs of 128 ounces of fruit punch = $2.50

The costs for 96 ounces of fruit punch = (96×2.5)/128 = 1.875

The costs for 96 ounces of fruit punch = $1.88

Priya's budget for poetry club meeting in dollars = $5.99 + $1.88 = $7.87

Cost per item for x number of people:

y = x(2.5/128) + x (3.99/16)

y = x(0.0195) + x(0.2494)

Cost equation for Priya's budget:

y = 96x(2.5/128) + 24x (3.99/16)

y = 96x(0.0195) + 24x(0.2494)

Since the total number of people to attend the meeting is 12, the constraint = 0≤x≤12

grandymaker [24]
They got the 1.2 minutes by taking the total number of minutes (6) and dividing them by the number of laps run (5). So 6 divided by 5 gives you the 1.2.

Adam currently runs about 40 miles per week, and he wants to increase his weekly mileage by 30%. How many miles will Adam run pe
BigorU [14]

Answer:

52 miles/week (12 more miles per week)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to know the miles per week with this increasement, we'll use the rule of 3, assuming that 40 miles is the 100% innitially so:

If:

40 miles --------->100%

X miles ----------> 30%

Solving for X we have the following:

X = 30 * 40 / 100 = 12 miles

So, if Adam wants to increase his weekly mileage by 30%, he needs to run 12 more miles, and that makes a total of 52 miles/week
