Answer:
45 slices of turkey used
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to figure out this problem we first need to calculate the total amount of sandwiches that were ordered. Since 27 regular sandwiches were ordered and we know that three times as many customers ordered the regular sandwich as the large sandwich. Then we simply divide 27 by 3 to find out how many large sandwiches were ordered.
27 / 3 = 9 large sandwiches.
Now, assuming that each regular sandwich only takes one slice of turkey, we can multiply 9 by 2 since each large sandwich takes double the slices and add that to 27 to calculate the total number of slices used in all of the sandwiches for that day.
(9*2) + 27 = s
18 + 27 = s
45 = s
There were a total of 45 slices of turkey used.
I do believe that the answer is 9.<span />
Before we solve, let's define what a scale factor is. A scale factor is a certain number that can be multiplied or divided by to get a smaller or bigger image that's similar to the current image.
We have 48 by 36 as our original.
It has been reduced to an 8 by 6.
This means we must divide.
Before we get into any complicated ideas, if any, let's try a simple trick.
Divide 48 by 8 and 36 by 6. This should give us a scale factor if they give us the same quotients.
48 / 8 = 6
36 / 6 = 6
It turns out our scale factor is 1/6 (the same as dividing by 6).
The answer cannot be 1/8 because 36 / 8 doesn't give us 8 as a quotient.
The answer also cannot be 6 because we'd have to mutliply our current sides by 6 to get the new image, which it was the opposite.
By elimination and work shown, A.) 1/6 is the correct answer.
I hope this helps!
Remember, -(-x)=x because the negatives cancel out
so
when p=-6 and q=7
p+(-q)-3
-6+(-7)-3
-6-7-3
-13-3
-16
