Papa Johns is baking a total of 72 pizzas Monday and Tuesday. Each pizza requires 1 2/3 bags of cheese. Monday he makes 1/2 of the total number of pizzas he needs. How many bags of cheese has he used?

60 bags of cheese was used

Step-by-step explanation:

Papa Johns is baking a total of 72 pizzas Monday and Tuesday. Each pizza requires 1 2/3 bags of cheese. Monday he makes 1/2 of the total number of pizzas he needs.

1/2 of the total number of pizzas that he needs is : 1/2 of 72 pizzas

= 36 pizzas

The number of bags of pizza that he needs is :

1 pizza = 1 2/3 bags of pizza

36 pizzas = x

Cross Multiply

x = 36 × 1 2/3 bags of cheese

x = 36 × 5/3 bags of cheese

x = 12 × 5 bags of cheese

x = 60 bags of cheese

9 x 8 divided by (5-3)=36

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
