4 bowls of pasta would be served for twelve people.
4×3=12
Answer:
x = 5/4
y = 7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The smaller triangle and the larger one are similar, so the sides are proportional.
(x+5)/5 = 10/8
x/5 + 1 = 1/4 + 1 . . . . . divide it out
x/5 = 1/4 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 1
x = 5/4 . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 5
___
For y, you can do exactly the same computations, replacing every instance of 5 with a 7. Then you get ...
y = 7/4
Answer:
2,400
Step-by-step explanation: If a person can walk 5 meters per second and there are 60 seconds in a minute then you would multiply 5 by 60 and get 300. Then you multiply that by 8 and get 2,400.
So times 18.50 by .08 to find the 8% tax which is 1.48. then add that to the original 18.50 totals $19.98.
So b is your answer
