Answer:

56 number of  Nectarines are needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  number of Fruit-pie be x and  number of nectarines be y.

Since the fruit pie recipe calls for twice as many peaches as nectarines.

then we have,

x= 2y

It is also given that total of 168 pieces fruit for all pies.

⇒ x+y=168

Substitute x=2y in above equation to solve for y:

 2y+ y =168 or

3y=168

Divide both sides by 3, we get

\frac{3y}{3}= \frac{168}{3}

Simplify:

y = 56

Therefore, 56 nectarines are needed.

Suppose you receive a postcard from a good friend with a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. The postcard is 3.5
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Actual length of the Bridge = 8983.33 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale is 1 unit = 19,600.

Height of the postcard is 3.5 inches.

So, original height of the bridge = 3.5 × 19,600 = 68,600 inches

= 5716.67 feet

Width of the postcard is 5.5 inches.

So, original width of the bridge = 5.5 × 19,600 = 107,800 inches

= 8983.33 feet
