Answer:

8/3 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Each person gets 1/3 pound, and there are 8 people, so we can multiply 8 by 1/3 to find the answer

8*1/3=8/3

So, she will need to buy 8/3 pounds of chicken, or 2 2/3 pounds

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

2\frac{2}{3} pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Each person will eat 1/3 pound of chicken, and there are 8 people. So, we want eight 1/3 pounds. We can write this as an addition problem:

1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3

This addition problem is equivalent to the multiplication problem: 8 * (1/3)

Both will yield the same result: 8/3 pounds = 2\frac{2}{3} pounds, and that's the answer.

Hope that helps!

Seven more than three times a number is thirty-one. Write an equation
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

As an equation, (we'll use x as the variable), that word problem is 3x+7=31.

To solve we'd subtract 7 from both sides to isolate 3x, which gives us 3x=24. Now, to isolate x(unknown number) we would divide both sides by 3. When you divide both sides by 3, you'd get x=8.

Answer:

16.9 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with a half a circle. The central angle of a semicircle is 180 deg.

Now subtract 21 deg on each side.

180 - 21 - 21 = 138

The central angle is 138 deg.

The radius is 7 m.

Now we use the formula for the length of an arc of a circle given the radius of the circle and the central angle of the arc.

s = \dfrac{n}{360^\circ}2 \pi r

s = \dfrac{138^\circ}{360^\circ}2(3.14159)(7~m)

s = 16.9~m

Solve for t.<br><br> -5 − 2t = 3t
allsm [11]
T is equal to -1.
  1. <em>Add 2t to both sides of the equation.</em> -5 = 5t
  2. <em>Divide both sides of the equation by -5.</em> 1 = -t
  3. <em>Multiply both sides of the equation by -1.</em> -1 = t
