7 pounds of plums make 8 fruit rolls. How many pounds of plums are required to make 20 fruit rolls?
Answer: 17.5 lbs (pounds)
7/8=b/20
Since, 7 ÷ 8=.875 or Cross Multiply
b ÷ 20=.875 8b=140
b ÷ 20 ✖️ 20 = .875 ✖️ 20. b=17.5
b = 17.5

Paul wrote the equation t=2m+40 to represent the temperature, t, in degrees Celsius, after a substance had been heated for m minutes.
Based on Paul's equation, how many minutes does the substance have to be heated to reach a temperature of 100 degrees Celsius?
Answer: 30 minutes
100 = 2m +40
60 = 2m
m = 30
Answer: x = 63
Explanation:
(x-12) + 39 = 90
x-12 + 39 - 39 = 90-39
x -12 + 12 = 51 + 12
x = 63
The amount you charge to mow a lawn is proportional to the time it takes you to mow the lawn. You charge $30 to mow a lawn that took you 1.5 hours to mow.

A student surveyed a random sample of 40 students in the school cafeteria about whether they ate the cafeteria's tomato soup.
14 of the sampled students said they ate the soup.
A total of 840 students eat in the cafeteria each day.
Based on the results of the survey, how many of the 840 students who eat in the cafeteria can be expected to eat the tomato soup?
Answer: 294 students
14/40 = x/840
14 x 840 =11,760
40x = 11760
x = 11760 divided by 40
x = 294

Eric planted a seedling in his garden and recorded its height each week. The equation shown can be used to estimate the height, h, in inches, of the seedling by the end of each week, w, after it was planted.
What does the slope of the graph of the equation
h = 3/4w + 9/4
represent?
Answer: The slope represents the increase in the height, in inches, of the seedling each week.
Answer: 8/125 in3
L = 4x1/5 =4/5
W = 2 x 1/5 = 2/5
H = 1 x 1/5 = 1/5
Volume = 4/5 x 2/5 x 1/5 =8/125
