Answer:  He can make 3 batches of soup.

Starting with 10 pounds of tomatoes and taking out the number of pounds he sets aside for spaghetti sauce, 2.8, we have:

10-2.8 = 7.2 pounds left.

0.2 is read as "two tenths," so 7.2 = 7 2/10

We divide this remaining number of pounds by 2 2/5 for each batch of soup:

7 2/10 ÷ 2 2/5

Convert each to an improper fraction:

72/10 ÷ 12/5

Multiply by the reciprocal:

72/10 × 5/12 = 360/120 = 3

Hope this helps... Stay safe and have a great day/night!!! :D

The altitude a ( in feet) of a plane t minutes after lift off is given by a=3400t+600
Julli [10]

Answer:

  6 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

'a' in the formula represents altitude in feet. You are told the altitude is 21000 feet, so put that into the formula:

   21000 = 3400t +600

You can solve this for t:

  20400 = 3400t . . . . . subtract 600 from both sides

  6 = t . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide both sides by 3400

The problem statement tells you that t represents minutes after lift off, so this solution means the altitude is 21000 feet 6 minutes after lift off.

The question is asking for the number of minutes after lift off that the plane reaches an altitude of 21000 feet, so this answers the question directly:

  The plane is at an altitude of 21000 feet 6 minutes after lift off.

If p is inversely proportional to the square of q, and p is 25 when q is 3, determine p
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

p = 9 when q = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

p is inversely proportional to the square of q

This means that:

p = \frac{k}{q^2}

In which k is a constant multiplier.

p is 25 when q is 3

We use this to find k.

p = \frac{k}{q^2}

25 = \frac{k}{3^2}

k = 25*9 = 225

So

p = \frac{225}{q^2}

Determine p when q is equal to 5.

p = \frac{225}{q^2} = \frac{225}{5^2} = 9

p = 9 when q = 5.
