Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
(You forgot to add the question, but I guess you want to know the mass of the turkey for 14 people :p )
By hypothesis, 1 lb = 450g. Adam wants that each of the 14 person, get 3/4 lb. Let x be the mass of 3/4 lb in grams, using the rule of three:
1 lb --> 450g
3/4 lb --> x
x = 3/4 * 450 = 337.5
So 3/4 lb = 337.5 g
Adam wants to cook for 14 people and wants to allow 3/4 lb of turkey for each person, so 337.5 for each.
So to know the total mass of the turkey, you multiply the mass for one person by the total number of people:
337.5 * 14 = 4725
So the mass of the turkey for 14 people is 4725g, or 10.5 lb (3/4 * 14)
Hope this Helps! :)
1-1/6*3/2
multiply the two fractions
1/6*3/2
Cross out 3 and 6, divide by 3.
1/2 * 1/2
multiply the numerators together
1*1=1
multiply the denominators together
2*2=4
1-1/4
pretend that 1 has a denominator which is 1
1/1-1/4
find the common denominator for 1/1 which is 4
multiply by 4 for 1/1
1*4/1*4=4/4
4/4-1/4
Answer:
3/4

<span>1) 3x-2=x+10
</span><span>Now, lets solve this step-by-step.
</span><span>
3x - 2 = x + 10
-x -x
</span><span>
</span><span>3x - x = 2x 2x - 2 = 10
</span><span>
</span><span>2x - 2 = 10
</span>2x - 2+2 = 10+2 The inverse operation helps isolate the variable.
<span>
2x = 12
2x/2 = 12/2
x = 12/2
x = 6</span><span>
Answer: x = 6
2) x + 4 = 19 - 2x </span>
We can solve this much faster
x + 4 = 19 - 2x
+2x
x+2x = 3x
3x + 4 = 19
-4 -4
19-4 = 15
3x= 15
3x/3 = 15/3
x= 5
Answer: x = 5
3) <span>8x - 20 = x + 15
Much faster now!!
8x - 20 = x + 15
-x
8x-x = 7x
7x - 20 = 15
+20 +20
15+20 = 35
7x = 35
7x/7 = 35/7
x = 35/7
x = 5
Answer: x= 5</span>
