Answer:

320 cups of soup

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Total number of guests expected T = 800

Proportion of that may order soup p = 2 out of 5 = 2/5

The number of cups he should prepare should be equal to the number of guests that are expected to order soup appetizer.

Number of guests Expected to order soup appetizer n is;

n = proportion × total guest = p × T

Substituting the given values;

n = 2/5 × 800 = 320

Therefore, he should prepare 320 cups of soup.

I don't understand rational and irrational numbers
PSYCHO15rus [73]

A rational number is a number which can be expressed as a fraction whose numerator and denominator are both integers and whose denominator is not equal to zero. Rational numbers include all integers, fractions, mixed numbers, and some decimal numbers.

 

Note : All terminating and repeating decimal numbers are rational numbers because those numbers can be expressed as a fraction. On the other hand, a non repeating number and non terminating decimal, like square root of 2, is an irrational number.

then you go 3 +1.5k+1.5=?

1.5k+4.5=?

-1.5k      -1.5k

4.5=-1.5

Find the values of m and b that make the following function differentiable.
Sonbull [250]
The derivative of f(x) at x=3 is 2x=6 approaching from the left side (apply power rule to y=x^2). The derivative of f(x) at x=3 is m approaching from the right side. In order for the function to be differentiable, the limit of derivative at x=3 must be the same approaching from both sides, so m=6. Then, x^2=mx+b at x=3, plug in m=6, 9=18+b, so b=-9.

What is the unit rate of 5/7 : 4/7?
allochka39001 [22]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To make the second number in this ratio be 1, you need to multiply the whole ratio by 7/4:

  (7/4)(5/7) : (7/4)(4/7) = 5/4 : 1 = a : 1

  a = 5/4
