Instead of having a cake, Ruben wants to make ice cream sundaes at his next birthday party. He thinks each person will eat 2 cups of ice cream, and there will be 24 people at his party.
How many 1-gallon tubs of ice cream should he buy?
tubs

he should buy 3 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 16 cups in a gallon, and if each person will eat 2 cups, and there are 24 ppl, multiply 24 by 2 to get the number of cups.

24 x 2 = 48.

Then, divide that by 16 (the number of cups in a gallon) to t how many gallons.

48 ÷ 16 = 3

so, he needs 3 gallons

hope this helped!  

step-by-step explanation:

hihi so drawing these 2 triangles is fairly simple. all that's left is finding the height of each one. luckily, we have a side length and an angle, so there is a trig function we can use to solve for the height. the easiest one to use would be tangent, since we have 2/3 things needed to find and the third needed is what we are solving for. tan(73°) * 30 ~= 98.13 and tan(73°) * 35 ~= 114.45
