Answer:

1. Total number of people = 8

Steak required for 1 person is = \frac{3}{4} pounds

So, steak required for 28 persons will be : \frac{3}{4} \times28

= 21 pounds

2. Most people know that one quarter of an hour is 15 minutes.

One quarter is written as : \frac{1}{4} or 0.25

And 1 hour has 60 minutes.

So, one quarter has = \frac{1}{4} \times60 = 15 minutes

or 0.25\times60=15 minutes

Michelle has a jar of quarters and dimes totalling to 3.10 if there are sixteen coins in the jar how many more quarters are ther
Sav [38]
Q + d = 16....q = 16 - d
0.25q + 0.10d = 3.10

0.25(16 - d) + 0.10d = 3.10
4 - 0.25d + 0.10d = 3.10
-0.25d + 0.10d = 3.10 - 4
-0.15d = -0.90
d = -0.90/-0.15
d = 6...dimes

q + d = 16
q + 6 = 16
q = 16 - 6
q = 10...quarters

so there are (10 - 6) = 4 more quarters then dimes

How do I do this ? I don't know how to find the midpoint in this problem
finlep [7]
If point A is the midpoint then that means line segments XA and AY are equivalent so you can set:
3x=5x-6
(now you solve for x)
2x=6
(divide by 2 on both sides)
x=3

So BASICALLY,
XA= 3x= 3(3) = 9
AY= 5x-6= 5(3)-6 =9
So now you know the length of both sides, add those together and you get 
XY=18
