First how much turkey- 21 lbs or pounds.

21 subtract the amount of pounds discarded.-16 lbs or pounds remain.

     16 divided 0.8= 

Make the 0.8 a whole number.- 8

8 divided by 16= 2

Each person will get 2 pounds of turkey.

And how many people anyways?!

Answer:

The answer is 18 people who served turkey.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the amount of persons who eat the turkey, we need to know the final pounds of turkey meat.

The 21 pound turkey consider 15 pound bones, so we have to subtract the bones:

21-5=16

The result is 18 pound turkey meat. Then we need to know how much the people eat each one. They eat 0.8 pounds each one.

Then we divide the remaining turkey with the before value (0.8) to know the amount of persons:

\frac{16}{0.8} \\20.00

Finally, we round the value to a real value of persons.

There were 20 people who served turkey.

Given ∆QRS≅∆TUV, QS=5v+3, and TV=6v−9, find the length of QS and TV.?
Kisachek [45]
If <span>∆QRS≅∆TUV, Their corresponding sides would be equal so, 
QS = TV
5v + 3 = 6v - 9
6v - 5v = 3 + 9
v = 12

Now, QS = TV = 5(12) + 3 = 60 + 3 = 63

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!</span>
