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

If they are then

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 where a is the greatest number and b and are the other 2 sides.

The first one is a triple because 26^2 = 10^2 + 24^2

Also 9 40 and 41 are , and the last one.

What substitution should be used to rewrite x8 â€"" 3x4 2 = 0 as a quadratic equation? u = x2 u = x4 u = x8 u = x16.
Advocard [28]

The degree of a quadratic equation is always 2

The substitution that rewrites x^8 - 3x^4 +2 = 0 as a quadratic equation is u = x^4

The equation is given as:

x^8 - 3x^4 +2 = 0

Express 8 as 4 * 2

x^{4 \times 2} - 3x^4 +2 = 0

Rewrite the equation as:

(x^{4})^2 - 3x^4 +2 = 0

Represent x^4 with u.

So, the equation becomes

u^2 - 3u +2 = 0

Notice that the above equation has a degree of 2.

Hence, the substitution is u = x^4
