The chef has 25% pounds of loin strip. the trim loss on the strip loin is 35% and the cooking loss is 80% of the trimmed weight. how many pounds of trimmed, cooked strip loin will the chef have left to serve to has customers?

3.25 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with 25 pounds we trim off 35%:

25 X .35 = 8.75 trimmed off

This leaves 25 - 8.75 pounds of trimmed meat:

25 - 8.75 = 16.25 of trimmed meat.

During cooking we lose another 80% of the weight of the meat:

16.25 X .80 = 13 pounds "cooked off"

So the remaining weight of meat is 16.25 - 13:

16.25 - 13 = 3.25 pounds of trimmed cooked meat.

How sad is that?

see explanation

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2

126.66 m²

step-by-step explanation:

the pertinent area formula is a = πr², where r is the radius.

here, a = π(6.35 m)² = 40.32π, or approximately 126.66 m²
