Each pound of potato salad serves 6 people and the average number of pounds of potato salad that each person is served will be 
pound.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
At a party of 102 people, 17 pounds of potato salad is served.
<u>a.</u> Suppose, each pound of potato salad is served to 
number of people.
So, 17 pounds of salad is served to 
or 
number of people. That means......
So, each pound of potato salad is served to 6 people.
<u>b.</u> Suppose, the average number of pounds of potato salad that each person is served is 
So, the total number of pounds of salad, served to 102 people 
pounds 
pounds. That means .....
So, the average number of pounds of potato salad that each person is served will be pound.
Answer: $3 per pound
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Carson buys 4 pounds of peaches for $12, you can find the value of one pound by dividing 4 by 4. You must also divide the 12 by 4. In conclusion, you pay $3 per pound.
Problem One
Find AM
AM = 71.5 - 22 = 49.5
Step Two
State the Givens.
AM = 49.5
MN = 71.5
MB = x
MP = 97.5
Step Three
Set up the Proportion
AM : NM :: x : PM
49.5 : 71.5 :: x : 97.5
Substitute and solve
49.5 / 71.5 = x / 97.5 Cross Multiply
49.5 * 97.5 = 71.5 * x Combine the numbers on the left.
4860.375 = 71.5 * x Divide by 71.5
4860.375 / 71.5 = x
x = 67.98
Problem Two
Remark
This is just a straight application of the Pythagorean Theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 10
b = 24
c = ??
10^2 + 24^2 = c^2
100 + 576 = c^2
676 = c^2
sqrt(c^2) = sqrt(676)
c = 26 <<<< answer
