(WILL GIVE My family of six eats 24 meatballs and four pounds of pasta on spaghetti night. How many meatballs and how much pasta will we need when my grandparents (just two people) join us for spaghetti night? Show your work. (No Links)

Well, first, you have to find out how much food each person needs. Assuming everyone eats the same amount, you divide 24 by 6, getting 4 meatballs per person. Then you divide the 4 pounds of pasta by 6, getting .75 pounds of pasta per person. Then you multiply both of those numbers, 4 and .75 by 8, since that is how many people will be eating that night. You get 32 meatballs, and 6 pounds of pasta.

answer: 177/8

step-by-step explanation:

m∠cdf = 43° , m∠gdf = 114°, m∠gde = 23°, m∠edh = 23° , m∠cdh = 157°

step-by-step explanation:

since, it is given that de bisects the angle gdh ⇒ de divides the angle gdh into two equal angles.

⇒ m∠gde = m∠edh

⇒ 8·x   - 1 = 6·x + 5

⇒ x = 3

so, m∠gde = 8·x - 1 = 23°

and m∠edh = 23°

now, it is given ∠cde is an straight angle so, m∠cde = 180°

⇒ m∠cdf + m∠fdg + m∠gde = 180°

⇒ 43° + m∠fdg + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠fdg = 114°

again, m∠cde = m∠cdh + m∠edh = 180°

m∠cdh + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠cdh = 157°
