Answer:

Each person would get 29.25 pounds of chicken

Step-by-step explanation:

John is cooking 234 pounds of chicken.

He is making a dinner for 8 people, including himself.

This means that he wants to make dinner for just 8 people.

Hence, he would need to divide the 234 pounds of chicken into 8 places.

234 / 8 = 29.25 pounds

Each person would get 29.25 pounds of chicken.

Step-by-step answer:

Given:

A triangle

Perimeter  = 60 cm

longest side = 4* shortest side (x)

Solution:

longest side = 4x

shortest side = x

third (intermediate side = 60 -x -4x = 60-5x

The triangle inequality specifies that the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the longest side to form a triangle.  Hence

x + y > 4x

x + 60-5x > 4x

60 - 4x > 4x

8x < 60

x < 60/8 = 7.5, or

x < 7.5

Therefore to form a triangle, x (shortest side) must be less than 7.5 cm.

Examine the options: both 7 and 5 are both less than 7.5 cm.

40, 30 and 25 all have a problem because the longest side (4 times longer) will exceed the perimeter of 60.

Now also examine cases where 4x is NOT the longest side, in which case we need

4x>=y

or

4x >= 60-5x

9x >=60

x >= 6.67

so x=5 will not qualify, because 4x will no longer be the longest side.

The only valid option is x=7 cm

The side lengths for x=7 and x=5 are, respectively,

(7, 25, 28)

5, 20, 35  (in which case, the longest side is no longer 4x=20, so eliminated)
