Answer:The new cost per person= $19 when there are 12 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Let Number of people be rep as N
And Cost per person = C
such that the relationship of number of people which varies inversely with the cost per person is given as
N∝ 1/C
Introducing constant of proportionality, k, we have that
N= K/C
such that when there were 4 people the cost per person was $57, K would be
N= K/C
4 = K /57
k= 57 X 4
k=228
Step 2
Therefore If the number of people changed to 12, cost per person would be
N= K/C
12= 228 / C
C= 228/12
C= 19
The new cost per person= $19 when there are 12 people
Answer:
Cups of carrot needed for 9 servings = 4.5 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
A recipe for sesame chicken calls for cup of chopped carrots
recipe 2 is for 4 servings
That is
2 cups of carrot = 4 servings
2 : 4
= 1 : 2
1 cup of carrot = 2 servings
how many cups of
carrots are needed for 9 servings?
Let x= number of carrot needed for 9 servings
1 : 2 = x : 9
1 /2 = x/ 9
Cross product
1*9 = 2*x
9=2x
Divide both sides by 2
9/2 = x
x= 4.5 Or 4 1/2
Hello!
The answer is 34°
Hope this helps!
Hi! I'm happy to help!
To solve this, we have to divide the 18 pounds, in 1/8 portions. We do this with division. To make this problem easier to solve, we need to turn it into a multiplication problem (opposite of division). To still make the problem correct, we have to take the opposite of one of our numbers. Let's take 1/8, and turn it into 8, now we have the problem:
18×8=
Now all we have to do is multiply:
18×8=
144
He can make 144 croissants!
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
