If each person at a party will eat 3/8 roast beef and there will be 5 people at the party, how many pounds of roast beef will be needed?

Plz determine whether the polynomial is a difference of squares and if it is, factor it. y2 – 196 is a difference of squares: (y + 14)2 is a difference of squares: (y – 14)2 is a difference of squares: (y + 14)(y – 14) is not a difference of squares

X/y + 4y/x divided by x/y - 2y/x explain as in depth as you can how you simplfied the fractions. i don't know where to start on this : /

Given that y varies directly to the square root of (x + 1), and that y = 1 when x = 8,(a)express y in terms of .x,(b)find the value of y when x = 3,(c)find the value of x when y = 5.
