First, convert 3 into a fraction with denominator 8.

(3 pizzas)(8/8 pizzas)=24/8 pizzas

Then, divide 24/8 pizzas by 2/8 pizzas per 1 person.

(24/8 pizzas)(2/8 pizzas/person)

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal:

(24/8)/(2/8)=(24/8)×(8/2) the 8s cancel and you are left with 24/2=12

3 pizzas will feed 12 people.

Two planes, which are 2235 miles apart, fly toward each other. Their speeds differ by 95 mph. If they pass each other in 3 hours
lora16 [44]

Answer:

325 mph and 420 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

If the speed of the slower plane is x, then the speed of the faster plane is x + 95.

The distance traveled by the slower plane is 3x.

The distance traveled by the faster plane is 3(x + 95).

The total distance is 2235 miles.

3x + 3(x + 95) = 2235

3x + 3x + 285 = 2235

6x = 1950

x = 325

x + 95 = 420

The speed of the planes is 325 mph and 420 mph.

Find the infinite sum of 10,5,2.5,1.25...
____ [38]
Notice this is a geometric progression since each number multiplied by some factor equals the next number in the sequence, in this case,

10 \times r = 5 \Rightarrow r=0.5

Then by applying the formula for sum to infinity of a geometric progression,
S_\infty = \frac{a}{1-r} = \frac{10}{1-0.5} = 20
