Evan is making soft pretzel nuggets. His recipe says that, after he makes the dough, he should divide it into 8 equal pieces. Then, he needs to roll each piece into a 2-foot-long rope and cut it into nuggets. If he decides to make each pretzel nugget 1 inch long, how many can he make in all?

The answer to your question is 192 pretzels

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

number of pieces = 8

length of each piece = 2 ft

length of each pretzel = 1 in

number of pretzels = x

Process

1.- Convert ft to in

                         1 ft 12 in

                          2 ft x

                          x = (2 x 12) / 1

                          x = 24 ft

2.- Divide the length of each piece by the length of each pretzel

                        24/1 = 24 pretzels per piece

3.- Multiply the number of pretzels per the number of pieces

                        24 x 8 = 192 pretzels

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

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.
