Answer:

12 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

Luke's turkey chili recipe calls for 2.5 pounds of ground turkey for every 5 servings. How many servings can he make if he has 6 pounds of ground turkey?

From above question:

2.5 pounds of ground turkey = 5 servings

6 pounds of ground turkey = x

Cross Multiply

2.5 × x = 6 × 5

x = 6 × 5/2.5

x = 12 servings

Hence, 6 pounds of ground turkey can make 12 servings.

Completing the explanation.

The equation is

5x = 2.5y

where:

x = represent how many pounds of ground turkey he has = 6 pounds

y = to represent how many servings he can make

Hence,

5 × 6 = 2.5y

y = 5 × 6/2.5

y = 12 servings

2. Find the median of the data set: 15, 6, 7, 10, 8, 9, 8, 14, 13.<br><br>please help asap​
dangina [55]
<h2>9</h2>

To find the median the first thing we need to do is organize the numbers from smallest to largest:

6 7 8 8 9 10 13 14 15

Then if the amount of numbers is odd, the median is the number which is in the middle. In this case the middle number is 9.

6 7 8 8 9 10 13 14 15

Hope this helps mate! Best of luck to you. :)
