Question:

You are making sandwiches for a large party. Each sandwich has two slices of bread, one slice of turkey, two slices of cheese, three slices of tomato and 5 slices of cucumber. How many sandwiches will you get from 10 slices of bread and 20 slices of cucumber? assuming you have plenty of everything

Answer:

4 sandwiches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 Sandwich contains:

Bread = 2\ slices

Turkey = 1\ slice

Cheese = 2\ slices

Tomato = 3\ slices

Cucumber = 5\ slices

Required

Number of sandwiches from 10 slices of bread and 20 slices of cucumber?

Since we are to assume that every other thing is in abundance, we will only consider the unit amount of bread and cucumber

Bread = 2\ slices

Cucumber = 5\ slices

Express as ratio

Bread : Cucumber = 2 : 5

When the ratio is multiplied by 5, the slice of cucumber (25) will exceed the available slices (20).

So, we multiply by 4

Bread : Cucumber = 2*4 : 5*4

Bread : Cucumber = 8 : 20

This implies that:

8 slices of bread and 20 slices of cucumber are used

Hence:

4 sandwiches can be made

Nookie1986 [14]

Let 'a' be the point and 'A' be the reflection of point 'a' through line x= -3

we know, (a+A)/2 (mid point of line aA) should lie on line x= -3

so by using this, we calculate vertices of reflected shape of MAST, we get

(-3,-1), (-3,2),(-5,3) and (-7,1)

Segment AX and Segment EX are secant segments that intersect at point X. What is the length of ED? a. 1 b. 3 c. 6 d. 9
suter [353]

Answer:

B. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use secant theorem.

AX × BX = EX × DX

AX = 7 + 2 = 9

9 × 2 = (3 + x) × 3

18 = 9 + 3x

18 - 9 = 3x

9 = 3x

x = 9/3 = 3

The length of ED is 3 units.
