anonymous 4 years ago the number of cakses needed for a party c, is dependent upon the number of guest at the party, g. which equation shows the number of cakses as a function of the number of guests A: f(c)=g/12 B: f(g)=g/12 C: f(c)=c/12 D: f(g)=c/12 This makes absolutely no sense...

>> "This makes absolutely no sense..." why? the question is straight forward.

I am not a baker but A. looks good. This assumes that a cake is cut into 12 slices, and the guest only get one slice.

it makes no sense to me either because you have $f(c)$ on one side and no "c" on the other

4. anonymous

crappy notation for sure. maybe they mean $c=\frac{g}{12}$ or $c=f(g)=\frac{g}{12}$

Not only am I not a baker, but not too good in math lol

better at math i am sure than whoever wrote this problem.

I was thinking if guest equal 12, cake would = 1

Ha i was thinking it would be a

it is B but it is a dumb question

Oh really?
