Frank has devised a formula for his catering business that calculates the number of meatballs he needs to prepare.

The formula is m=4a +2c, where c= number of children; m= number of meatballs; a= number of adults.

Q: How many meat balls are required for a party of 25 adults and 6 children?

Respuesta :

As it is required for 25 adults and 6 children.
Putting the value of a with 25 and c with 5, then solve for m. 

m = 4(25) + 2(5) 
m = 100 + 10 
m = 110 meatballs are required.

Answer:

112 meat balls are required for a party of 25 adults and 6 children.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

Frank has devised a formula for his catering business that calculates the number of meatballs he needs to prepare.

The formula is given by:

[tex]m = 4a+2c[/tex]

where;

c= number of children;

m= number of meatballs;

a= number of adults.

We have to find  how many meat balls are required for a party of 25 adults and 6 children.

a = 25  and c = 6

then;

[tex]m = 4(25)+2(6) = 100+12 = 112[/tex]

Therefore, 112 meat balls are required for a party of 25 adults and 6 children.
