Melissa owns a catering company . For lunch and dinner parties , she serves appetizers before each meal. The number of appetizers Melissa serves is directly proportional to the number of guests at the party. For lunch parties, she serves 3 appetizers per guest. For dinner parties, she serves 5 appetizers per guest. When serving 22 guests, what is the difference of the number of appetizers she serves for dinner and the number of appetizers she serves for lunch?

Respuesta :

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

Lunch = 3 appetizers per guest

If there are 22 guests:  22 × 3 = 66 appetizers served

Dinner = 5 appetizers per guest

If there are 22 guests:  22 × 5 = 110 appetizers served

Difference = total dinner appetizers  - total lunch appetizers

                  = 110 - 66

                  = 44
