There will be a total of 40 people at the party. Answer the following questions:
• The recipe says it serves 8 people. By what number should Jenny multiply each ingredient to make enough meat loaf for everyone? 5
• The recipe calls for 1 1/2 lbs. of ground beef. How much ground beef will Jenny need to make enough meat loaf for everyone?
• Jenny will be serving milk with the meal. She plans on using 8 oz. glasses. How many gallons of milk does she need to make sure everyone gets one glass of milk?

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The recipe for the meat loaf used by Jenny can serve a total of 8 people. Since there are 40 people in total to serve, the number of each ingredient needed is:

Number of each ingredient = total number of people / number of people served by one recipe

Number of each ingredient = 40 / 8 = 5

b) Since each recipe contains 1 1/2 lb (1.5 lbs) of ground beef, the total amount of ground beef needed to feed everyone is:

Total amount of ground beef = 1.5 lbs * 5 = 7.5 lbs

c) Since one serving would require 8 oz of milk. To serve everyone, the amount of milk needed is:

Amount of milk = 40 people * 8 oz = 320 oz

128 oz = 1 gallon

Amount of milk = 320 oz * 1 gallon / 128 oz = 2.5 gallon

Given two angles that measure 50 degrees and 80 degrees and side that measures 4 feet, how many triangles, if any, can be constr
kirza4 [7]
The angles are the only constraint here that counts.  If one of the three interior angles of a supposed triangle is 50 degrees and another is 80 degrees, then the third angle must be 50 degrees.  Thus, we have a 50-50-80 triangle, which is isosceles though not a right triangle.  If 4 feet is a measure of one of the equal sides of a supposed triangle, then obviously the adjacent side also has measure 4 ft.

The set of angles remains the same (50-50-80), but subject to the constraint mentioned above, the measure of any one of the sides has infinitely many possible values, so long as those values are positive.

Find two consecutive integers whose sum is -29
LuckyWell [14K]

Example:

The sum of two consecutive integers is -15.  What is the product of the two integers?

x = 1st consecutive integer

x + 1 = 2nd consecutive integer   {consecutive integers increase by 1}


x + x + 1 = -15   {the sum of two consecutive integers is -15}

2x + 1 = -15   {combined like terms}

2x = -16   {subtracted 1 from each side}

x = -8   {divided each side by 2}

x + 1 = -7   {substituted -8, in for x, into x + 1}


-8 and -7 are the two consecutive integers


Their product is 56.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

P = 20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate formula is P = 2W + 2L.

Here that comes to P = 2(6 cm) + 2(4 cm) = 20 cm
