(You forgot to add the question, but I guess you want to know the mass of the turkey for 14 people :p )
By hypothesis, 1 lb = 450g. Adam wants that each of the 14 person, get 3/4 lb. Let x be the mass of 3/4 lb in grams, using the rule of three:
1 lb --> 450g
3/4 lb --> x
x = 3/4 * 450 = 337.5
So 3/4 lb = 337.5 g
Adam wants to cook for 14 people and wants to allow 3/4 lb of turkey for each person, so 337.5 for each.
So to know the total mass of the turkey, you multiply the mass for one person by the total number of people:
337.5 * 14 = 4725
So the mass of the turkey for 14 people is 4725g, or 10.5 lb (3/4 * 14)
Hope this Helps! :)
Answer:
Linear function
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
Linear or Exponential
A linear equation has the form: 
;
An exponential has the form: 
By comparing both functions to:
The linear function is similar to
<em>Hence, the given function is a linear function.</em>
Answer:
Sam gets £30 and Bethan gets £24.
Why?
When dealing with ratios, add up the numbers in the ratio.
5 + 4 = 9
Now, divide the total amount of money by that number.
£54/9 = 6
Now you have the base rate. Multiply each quantity in the ratio by this number.
5*6 = 30
4*6 = 24
Now, the ratio is (in euro) 30:24. This means that Sam has £30 and Bethan has £24.
Check:
30 + 24 = 54
