Answer:

66 pounds of tomatoes

Step-by-step explanation:

A recipe code lasagna calls for 3 pounds of tomatoes to serve 5 people. A caterer wants to make enough lasagna to serve 110 people. How many pounds of tomatoes does he neeed

From the above question:

5 people = 3 pounds of tomatoes

110 people = x pounds of tomatoes

Cross Multiply

5 people × x pounds = 110 people × 3 pounds

x pounds = 110 people × 3 pounds/5 people

x pounds = 66 pounds of tomatoes

3) Julian's shadow is 6 feet long. At the same time a 31 foot tall building casts a shadow that is 28 feet long. What proportion
SCORPION-xisa [38]

You are given the height of the building and the length of the shadow the building gives, so you can set that up as a proportion of Height of building over the length of the shadow so 31/28.

Now you can set the same proportion for Julian, using X for her height, so you would have x/6.


To solve for her height, set the two proportions equal and solve for x:

31/28 = x/6

Cross multiply:


31 * 6 = 28 *x

186 = 28x

Divide both sides by 28:

x = 186 / 28

x = 6.64 feet tall

A space vehicle deploys its re-entry parachute when it's traveling at a vertical velocity of -150 meters/second (negative becaus
Arlecino [84]
The initial velocity is -150m/s.
Remember that:
V(t) = Vi + at, where v(t) is velocity at time t, Vi is initial velocity, and a is acceleration.
We know that the vehicle stopped after 30 seconds, so V(30) = 0.
Let's plug the useful info into our function and solve for a:
0 = -150 + a*30     Add 150 to both sides
150 = 30a             Divide both sides by 30
a = 5 m/s²
The average acceleration is 5 meters per second squared.

If p + q = 36, and p -q = 20, then q = ?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

q = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

p + q = 36 → (1)

p - q = 20 → (2)

Add the 2 equations term by term

2p = 56 ( divide both sides by 2 )

p = 28

Substitute p = 28 into (1)

28 + q = 36 ( subtract 28 from both sides )

q = 8
