Answer:

  • Ben: 13
  • Gwen: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relations give rise to two equations:

  b = g + 5

  b + g = 21

Using the first to substitute for b in the second, we have ...

  (g +5) +g = 21

  2g = 16 . . . . . . . subtract 5

  g = 8 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  b = 8 +5 = 13

Ben got 13 presents; Gwen got 8.

The snack bar at your school has added sushi to its menu. The ingredients for one roll include sushi​ rice, seaweed​ sheets, cuc
amid [387]

Answer:

The answer si:  

- 16 servings - 6 oz of salmon

- 24 servings - 9 oz of salmon

- 80 servings - 30 oz of salmon

- 100 servings - 37.5 oz of salmon

1 roll is 8 servings and it is also made of 3oz of smoked salmon. That means that 3oz of smoked salmon is needed fo 8 servings.

Now, let's made some proportions:

16 servings:

3 oz is for 8 servings, how much oz is for 16 servings:

3 : 8 = x : 16

x = 3 · 16 ÷ 8 = 6 oz

24 servings:

3 oz is for 8 servings, how much oz is for 24 servings:

3 : 8 = x : 24

x = 3 · 24 ÷ 8 = 9 oz

80 servings:

3 oz is for 8 servings, how much oz is for 80 servings:

3 : 8 = x : 80

x = 3 · 80 ÷ 8 = 30 oz

100 servings:

3 oz is for 8 servings, how much oz is for 100 servings:

3 : 8 = x : 100

x = 3 · 100 ÷ 8 = 37.5 oz
