Looks like the answer would be 219 people since you can't have half a person.
Volume of the sheet cake:
V ( prism ) = 12 * 9 * 2 = 216 in³
Volume of the birthday cake:
V ( cylinder ) = r² * π * h = 4.5² * 3.14 * 4 = 254.34 in³
Then we will use the proportion :
216 : 254.34 = 36000 : x
216 x = 254.34 * 3600
216 x = 915,660
x = 915.660 : 216
x = 4,239.17 ≈ 4,240
Answer:
d. 4,240
Vertical angles are always equal. The vertical angles are the ones opposite each other. Therefore x would equal 40.
