The recipe for beef stew calls for 1/4 teaspoon of pepper for every 3 potatoes. if 9 potatoes are used, how much pepper is needed? whats a
proportion represents this problem?

Find the number of groups of 3 potatoes there are:

9 potatoes / 3 = 3

For each group of 3 you need 1/4 teaspoon, so now multiply 1/4 by 3:

1/4 x 3 = 3/4 teaspoons are needed.

for a it would be 24 children.

for b i don't understand the question. is it saying for each individual person they pick 5 reds to 7 greens or is it the whole group. clarify and i hope this can you.

step-by-step explanation:

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
