5 pounds = 20 potatoes
400 pounds = x
(cross-multiply above and you'll get 400 pounds = 1600 potatoes )
divide that by 2, and you'll get 800 (because 2 potatoes per fries)
1 = $0.95 (1 because i divided 1600 by 2, if in hadn't it would be 2)
800 = x
(you cross multiply again), and you'll get $760
Hope it helped!

What triggered the development of the first refrigeration process? smt310?
sveta [45]
Malaria

Dr. John Gorrie practiced medicine in Florida.  He experimented with ways to prevent the spread of malaria.  The summer of 1841 was a particularly bad summer for malaria infection.  People had not yet realized that malaria was spread by mosquitoes.  (That discovery didn't occur till the 1890s.)  Dr. Gorrie, noting that malaria was unlikely to occur in colder climates, thought that perhaps cooling the air in the sick rooms of his patients could help them.  He started with the idea of using a fan to blow air across a bucket of ice.  A rudimentary beginning to air cooling and refrigeration ... but as they say, the rest is history!

Why is the war of 1812 often called the secondary war of indepence
kifflom [539]

The war of 1812 is often called the Second War of Independence, for Britain attacked and almost defeated the US (see burning of the White House) in an epic battle. However, it was not exactly a second war of independence, for the US was the one that initiated the conflict by invading Canada, then a colony of Britain. To gain wide-spread support, the US made it so that it sounded like the UK was the aggressor.

Explanation:

Although Spain lost all of their colonies on the mainland by 1825, it retained control over Cuba and Puerto Rico.
