Answer:
a. y = x/6 b. 3 heads of lettuce
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Write an algebraic expression Gio could use to determine how much lettuce he needs
Since Gio needs one head of lettuce for every 6 guests who attend, then, the number of lettuce y needed for x guests is one head of lettuce/6 guests × x guests is y = 1/6 × x
= x/6
b. Gio finds out 18 people are coming to the party. Evaluate the expression for 18 guests
Since 18 guest come to the party, x = 6. So, y = x/6
= 18/6
= 3 heads of lettuce.
