Will got 12 and John got 24.

You would set the equation as:

36=n+2n

Combine like terms

36=3n

Divide 3 from both sides

12=n

If you want to check it

12+2(12)=36

12+24=36

36=36

A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes. The recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoe
vaieri [72.5K]

To answer the question, let B call the amount of meat and P the number of potatoes.

The recipe says that for every pound of meat we need 3 potatoes.

Then that relationship is written as follows:

1B = 3P

\frac{1}{3}=\frac{P}{B}

If we increase the amounts of the recipe by 100%, it will multiply by 2 the amount of meat and also that of potatoes. Therefore we need 2 pounds of meat and 6 potatoes.

Then the relationship is:

2B = 6P

\frac{2}{6}=\frac{P}{B}

But \frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}

Therefore, the proportion that represents the situation remains the same 1B = 3P

This occurs because the increase in the amount of potatoes and beef was in the same proportion.

Find what h equals please help ASAP THANK YOU!<br><br> 4h-1=3h+2
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
H = 3.

FIRST STEP:
<span>Add 1 to both sides to get rid of the -1 on the left side.
4h-1 = 3h+2
</span><span>4h-1 (+1) = 3h+2 (+1)
</span><span>4h = 3h+3
 
SECOND (FINAL) STEP:
Subtract 3h from both sides to get rid of the 3h on the right side.
</span>4h(-3h) = 3h+3 (-3h)
h = 3
Hope this helps, sorry if it's hard to understand :)

A rocket is launched from a tower. The height of the rocket, y in feet, is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by th
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

To find the maximum of a function in ax^2 + bx + c form, you can use  the formula: maximum = c - (b^2 / 4a).

In this question, a = -16, b = 180, and c = 63.

Maximum = 63 - (180^2/4(-16))

Maximum  = 569.25

Finally, rounding this to the nearest tenth of a foot, the final answer is 569.3 ft.

Let me know if this helps!
