Answer 2

Answer:56

Step-by-step explanation:just make an  proportional equation

like   $\frac{35pitches}{5minutes} =\frac{xpitches}{8minutes} \\I put an x for the value of pitches cause we dont know the value of x just yet the next step is to cross multiply\\35x8=280 and 5x(x) =5x. \\now we need to divide 5 by both sides of the equation\\\\5/5 = 1 and 280/5=56\\so our answer will be \\x=56 the amount of pitches Chad pitched in 8 minutes$
