Cooking franklin is cooking a 3-pound turkey breast for 6 people. if the number of pounds of turkey varies directly with the number of people, make a table to show the number of pounds of turkey for 2, 4, and 8 people

Answer-

2, 4, and 8 people will need 1, 2, 4 pounds of turkey respectively.

Solution-

Given in the question, number of pounds of turkey varies directly with the number of people, i.e as the number of people increases or decreases, the pound of turkey also increases or decreases.  

Taking,

x = number of people,

y = pounds of turkey.

This condition can be represented as,

As given in the question, when x = 6 y = 3

Now, putting the values of k in the equation, the equation becomes

Now, we can get the values of y or number of pounds of turkey needed by putting the given x or number of people.

All the calculations are shown in the attached table.

on your paper it doesn't say the answer but the the answer is altitude

step-by-step explanation:

x = ± 6i

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = -36

take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-36)

we know sqrt(ab) = sqrt(a) sqrt(b)

x = ±sqrt(36) sqrt(-1)

we know that sqrt (-1) = i

x = ± 6i
