15 people = 9 lbs pasta

1 people = 9/15 lbs. pasta

So, for 76 people = 9/15 * 76 = 45.6 lbs pasta

9/15 = x/76......9 lbs to 15 ppl = x lbs to 76 ppl
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(15)(x) = (9)(76)
15x = 684
x = 684/15
x = 45.6.....u should bring 45.6 lbs of pasta salad for 76 people

Write the standard equation of the circle shown.
zysi [14]

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle centred at the origin is

x² + y² = r² ← r is the radius

The circle shown is centred at the origin and has a radius of 5, thus

x² + y² = 5² ⇒ x² + y² = 25 → b

Here are two polygons on a grid.
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

For polygon PQRST to be considered a scaled copy of polygon ABCDE, it means every segments of polygon ABCDE were increased proportionally by a scale factor.

The segments in polygon PQRST were not gotten using the same scale factor, hence, it is not a scaled copy of the original polygon, ABCDE.

Segment CD = 2 units, it corresponds to segment RS = 4 units. Scale factor = RS/CD = 4/2 = 2

Segment BC = 1 unit, it corresponds to segment QR = 1 unit. Scale factor = QR/BC = 1/1 = 1 units.

Varying scale factor shows polygon PQRST is not a scaled copy of polygon ABCDE.

An exterior angle of a triangle equals _______ minus the adjacent interior angle.
insens350 [35]
As isosceles triangle has two congruent sides with a third side 
<span>that is the base. </span>

<span>A base angle of an isosceles triangle is one of the angles formed by </span>
<span>the base and another side. Base angles are equal because of the </span>
<span>definition of an isosceles triangle. </span>

<span>A picture would probably help here: </span>


<span>A </span>
<span>. </span>
<span>/ \ ABC = ACB = 39 degrees </span>
<span>/ BAC = ??</span>

<span>._______________. </span>
<span>B C </span>
<span>base </span>
<span>ABC is the isosceles triangle. AB is congruent to AC. Angle ABC </span>
<span>is congruent to angle ACB. These are the base angles. </span>
<span>Triangle is a convex polygon with three segments joining three non-collinear points. Each of the three segments is called a side, and each of the three non-collinear points is called a vertex. </span>
<span>Triangles can be categorized by the number of congruent sides they have. For instance, a triangle with no congruent sides is a scalene triangle; a triangle with two congruent sides is an isosceles triangle; a triangle with three congruent sides is an equilateral triangle. </span>
<span>Triangles can also be categorized by their angles. For instance, a triangle with three acute interior angles is an acute triangle; a triangle with one obtuse interior angle is an obtuse triangle; a triangle with one right interior angle is a right triangle; a triangle with three congruent interior angles is an equiangular triangle. </span>
<span>One property of a triangle is that the sum of the measures of the three interior angles is always 180 degrees (or pi radians). In addition, the exterior angle of a triangle is the supplement of the adjacent interior angle. The measure of the exterior angle is also the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles.</span>
