A.) pinky bought 1 1/2 kg of apples and 5 1/4 kg of mangoes and 1 1/2 Kg of oranges. Find the total weight of fruits B.) If her family eats 3/4 Kg of apples and 2 1/2 kg of mangoes and 1/2 Kg of oranges. Find the weight of the fruits left (Can any one say the answer please with explanation if who say the answer first I will mark them as the brainliest)
Answer:
a) The total weight of fruits is [tex]8\,\frac{1}{4}[/tex] kilograms, b) The weight of the fruits left is [tex]4\,\frac{1}{2}[/tex] kilograms.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The total weight of fruits ([tex]m_{T}[/tex]) is calculated by the following formula:
[tex]m_{T} = m_{a} + m_{m}+m_{o}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]m_{a}[/tex] - Total weight of apples, measured in kilograms.
[tex]m_{m}[/tex] - Total weight of mangoes, measured in kilograms.
[tex]m_{o}[/tex] - Total weight of oranges, measured in kilograms.
If [tex]m_{a} = 1\,\frac{1}{2} \,kg[/tex], [tex]m_{m} = 5\,\frac{1}{4}\,kg[/tex] and [tex]m_{o} = 1\,\frac{1}{2}\,kg[/tex], then:
[tex]m_{T} = 1\,\frac{1}{2}\,kg + 5\,\frac{1}{4}\,kg + 1\,\frac{1}{2}\,kg[/tex]
[tex]m_{T} = \frac{6}{4}\,kg + \frac{21}{4}\,kg + \frac{6}{4}\,kg[/tex]
[tex]m_{T} = \frac{33}{4}\,kg[/tex]
[tex]m_{T} = 8\,\frac{1}{4}\,kg[/tex]
The total weight of fruits is [tex]8\,\frac{1}{4}[/tex] kilograms.
b) The weight eaten by her family is determined by the following expression:
[tex]m_{E} = m_{a,e} + m_{m,e} + m_{o,e}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]m_{a,e}[/tex] - Eaten weight of apples, measured in kilograms.
[tex]m_{m,e}[/tex] - Eaten weight of mangoes, measured in kilograms.
[tex]m_{o,e}[/tex] - Eaten weight of oranges, measured in kilograms.
Given that [tex]m_{a,e} = \frac{3}{4}\,kg[/tex], [tex]m_{m,e} = 2\,\frac{1}{2}\,kg[/tex] and [tex]m_{o,e} = \frac{1}{2}\,kg[/tex], the weight eaten by her family is:
[tex]m_{E} = \frac{3}{4}\,kg + 2\,\frac{1}{2}\,kg + \frac{1}{2}\,kg[/tex]
[tex]m_{E} = \frac{3}{4}\,kg + \frac{10}{4}\,kg + \frac{2}{4}\,kg[/tex]
[tex]m_{E} = \frac{15}{4}\,kg[/tex]
[tex]m_{E} = 3\,\frac{3}{4}\,kg[/tex]
The weight of the fruits left is found by subtraction:
[tex]m_{R} = m_{T}-m_{E}[/tex]
[tex]m_{R} = 8\,\frac{1}{4} \,kg -3\,\frac{3}{4}\,kg[/tex]
[tex]m_{R} = \frac{33}{4}\,kg-\frac{15}{4}\,kg[/tex]
[tex]m_{R} = \frac{18}{4}\,kg[/tex]
[tex]m_{R} = 4 \,\frac{1}{2}\,kg[/tex]
The weight of the fruits left is [tex]4\,\frac{1}{2}[/tex] kilograms.

PLEASE HELP!!! Jim made a table to show the length of his walking sticks.
Which walking sticks measured less than 3/5 meters? Choose 2 answers
Answer:
Stick 2: [tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex]
Stick 3: [tex] \frac{4}{10} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine which of the lengths are less than ⅗ meters, you would compare each given length with ⅗ meters.
Stick 1: Comparing ⁹/10 and ⅗
Find The common denominator of both fractions. 10 is the common denominator. Multiply the numerator and denominator of ⅗ by 2 to create a fraction equivalent to ⁹/10.
Thus,
[tex] \frac{3*2}{5*2} = \frac{6}{10} [/tex]
Compare the numerator of [tex] \frac{9}{10} [/tex] and [tex] \frac{6}{10} [/tex].
9 is greater than 6. This means [tex] \frac{9}{10} [/tex] > [tex] \frac{6}{10} [/tex].
Therefore, [tex] \frac{9}{10} [/tex] > [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex]
Stick 2: comparing ½ and ⅗
Common denominator = 10
Make both fractions equivalent to each other as follows,
[tex] \frac{1*5}{2*5} = \frac{5}{10} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{3*2}{5*2} = \frac{6}{10} [/tex]
5 < 6. This means, [tex] \frac{5}{10} [/tex] < [tex] \frac{6}{10} [/tex].
Therefore, [tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex] < [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex]
Stick 3: comparing ⁴/10 and ⅗
Common denominator = 10
Make the fractions equivalent as follows,
[tex] \frac{4*1}{10*1} = \frac{4}{10} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{3*2}{5*2} = \frac{6}{10} [/tex]
4 < 6. This means, [tex] \frac{4}{10} [/tex] < [tex] \frac{6}{10} [/tex].
Therefore, [tex] \frac{4}{10} [/tex] < [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex]
Stick 4: comparing ⅘ and ⅗
Common denominator = 5
Since both denominators are already the same, both fractions are equivalent. Comparing their numerator, 4 > 3. Therefore, ⅘ > ⅗.

Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
0.5 ( 5 - 7x ) = 8 - ( 4x + 6 )
- Distribute 0.5 by 5 and -7x
2.5 - 3.5x = 8 - ( 4x + 6 )
Second- Distribute the invisible one into 4x and 6
2.5 - 3.5x = 8 - 4x - 6
- Combine like terms: Subtract 6 from 8
2.5-3.5x= - 4x + 2
-Add 4x from both sides of the equation
2.5 + 0.5x = 2
-Subtract 2.5 from both sides of the equation
0.5x = 2- 2.5
0.5x = -0.5
-Then divide each side by 0.5x
0.5x = -0.5
0.5 0.5
-Cancel the common factor of 0.5
x = - 0.5
0.5
-Divide -0.5 by 0.5
X = -1
three people alice , ben , calvin, are conversing at a taxi stand since taxis are the only ride service in this town. although they havent met before ,they realize that all are going the same route to get desire destination. alice destination is 20 miles away , ben destination 30 miles away and calvins destination 40 miles away , the taxi costs 2 dollars per mile with tip included regardless of the number of passengers. how much should each person pay if the three share a cab to their respective destination
Answer:
Alice will have to pay $13.33
Ben will have to pay $23.33
Kelvin will have to pay $43.33
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
Alice destination is 20 miles away
Ben destination is 30 miles away
Calvin destination is 40 miles away.
For a mile, taxi costs 2 dollars.
To find:
How much each person has to pay if they share the same taxi to their respective destinations?
Solution:
For the first 20 miles, the taxi will be shared by all 3 of them.
Charges for 20 miles = 20 [tex]\times[/tex] 2 = $40
This $40 will be shared among all 3.
Each will pay = [tex]\frac{40}{3} = \$13.33[/tex]
Charges for Alice = $13.33
Charges for Ben = $13.33
Charges for Calvin = $13.33
For the next 10 miles, the taxi will be shared by Ben and Calvin.
Charges for 10 miles = 10 [tex]\times[/tex] 2 = $20
This $20 will be shared between Ben and Calvin.
Each will pay = [tex]\frac{20}{2} = \$10[/tex]
Charges for Alice = $13.33
Charges for Ben = $13.33 + 10 = $23.33
Charges for Calvin = $13.33 + 10 = $23.33
For the next 10 miles, Calvin travels alone.
Charges for 10 miles = 10 [tex]\times[/tex] 2 = $20
This $20 will be paid by Calvin alone.
Charges for Alice = $13.33
Charges for Ben = $23.33
Charges for Calvin = $23.33 + 20 = $43.33

By using factorization, [tex]\frac{2x}{x+2} =\frac{6}{x+4}[/tex] , values of x are -2, 3.
What is factorization?Factorization can be defined as the process of breaking down a number into smaller numbers which when multiplied together arrive at the original number. These numbers are broken down into factors or divisors.
Given
[tex]\frac{2x}{x+2} =\frac{6}{x+4}[/tex]
⇒ 2x(x + 4) = 6(x + 2)
⇒ [tex]2x^{2} +8x = 6x + 12[/tex]
⇒ [tex]2x^{2} +8x-6x-12=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex]2x^{2} +2x -12=0[/tex]
Divide above equation by 2, we get
⇒ [tex]x^{2} +x -6=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x^{2} +2x-3x-6=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x(x+2)-3(x+2)=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex](x+2)(x-3)=0[/tex]

You have to create 3 functions to make hills on a grap
Requirements are in the photo.
(ignore graphs)
4. Write equations for three hills that do meet the requirements. Sketch them on one axis. (For the
purposes of this exercise, this is a sketch, so the steepness and minimums and maximums of the
graphs do not need to be exact). (6 points: 1 point for each equation, 1 point for each sketched curve)
Answer:
Hill 1: F(x) = -(x + 4)(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 4)
Hill 2: F(x) = -(x + 4)(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 4)
Hill 3: F(x) = 4(x - 2)(x + 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hill 1
You must go up and down to make a peak, so your function must cross the x-axis six times. You need six zeros.
Also, the end behaviour must have F(x) ⟶ -∞ as x ⟶ -∞ and F(x) ⟶ -∞ as x⟶ ∞. You need a negative sign in front of the binomials.
One possibility is
F(x) = -(x + 4)(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 4)
Hill 2
Multiplying the polynomial by -½ makes the slopes shallower. You must multiply by -2 to make them steeper. Of course, flipping the hills converts them into valleys.
Adding 3 to a function shifts it up three units. To shift it three units to the right, you must subtract 3 from each value of x.
The transformed function should be
F(x) = -2(x +1)(x)(x -2)(x -3)(x - 6)(x - 7)
Hill 3
To make a shallow parabola, you must divide it by a number. The factor should be ¼, not 4.
The zeroes of your picture run from -4 to +7.
One of the zeros of your parabola is +5 (2 less than 7).
Rather than put the other zero at ½, I would put it at (2 more than -4) to make the parabola cover the picture more evenly.
The function could be
F(x) = ¼(x - 2)(x + 5).
In the image below, Hill 1 is red, Hill 2 is blue, and Hill 3 is the shallow black parabola.
what is the x intercept for y=(2x(x-3))/(x-1). ?
my answer sheet says it is supposed to be -0.5
Answer:
( 0,0) and (3,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
y=(2x(x-3))/(x-1)
Set y = 0
0 =(2x(x-3))/(x-1)
Multiply each side by x-1, which makes x not equal to 1
0 =(2x(x-3))
Using the zero product property
2x=0 x-3 =0
x=0 x= 3
The x intercepts are x=0 x= 3
( 0,0) and (3,0)
Solve the equation. Do not put "x = "in your answer, just type the number.
Ex: -8 3x - 5 = 13*
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 5 = 13
3x = 18 (Add 5 to both sides; 13 + 5 = 18)
x = 6 (Divide both sides by 3; 18 / 3 = 6)
The graph represents revenue in dollars as a function of greeting cards sold. A coordinate plane showing Greeting Card Revenue, Number of Cards Sold on the x-axis and Revenue in dollars on the y-axis. A line starts at (0. 0) and passes through (2, 8), (4, 16), and ends at (5, 20). Which equation represents the function shown on the graph? y = x y = x y = 2x y = 4x
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Just did it
A function assigns the values. The equation that represents the function shown on the graph is y=4x.
What is a Function?A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set.
Given that the graph represents revenue in dollars as a function of greeting cards sold. Therefore, we can write the function as,
Revenue ∝ Number of cards sold
Since the Number of Cards Sold on the x-axis and Revenue in dollars on the y-axis. Therefore, we can write,
y ∝ x
Removing the proportionality, we will get,
y = k x
Now, substitute any point through which the graph of the function passes to get the value of k,
20 = k × 5
20/5 = k
k = 4
Thus, the function can be represented as,
y = kx
y = 4x
Hence, the equation that represents the function shown on the graph is y=4x.

Nimisha wants to draw a wheel like the one shown. Each shaded part of the wheel should be one-third of each unshaded part. What should be the degree measure of the angle formed at the center by each shaded part?
Answer:
Each shade has a 22.5 degree angle from the middle
Each unshaded has a 67.5 degree angle from the middle.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this by making each unshaded part equal to x and each shaded part equal 1/3x it is a circle so it has to equal 360 so you end up with:
x + 1/3x + x + 1/3x + x + 1/3x + x + 1/3x = 360
Combine Like terms:
16/3x = 360
Multiply both sides by the opposite:
(3/16) (16/3x) = (360) (3/16)
x=135/2 or x=67.5
Then you can plug 67.5 in for x:
1/3x ---> 1/3(67.5) = 22.5

B. -1/2, 5/2
C. -3/2, 3/2
D. -1/2, 1
E. -2/4
Answer:
E. -2, 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If the zeroes of a function are given as [tex]\alpha, \beta[/tex], then the function can be written as:
[tex](x-\alpha)(x-\beta) = 0[/tex]
Here, we are given that zeros of [tex]f(x)[/tex] are x=-1 and x=2.
As per above, we can write the function [tex]f(x)[/tex] as:
[tex](x- (-1))(x-2) = 0\\\Rightarrow (x+1)(x-2)=0[/tex]
So, [tex]f(x) =(x+1) (x-2)[/tex]
To find:
Zeroes of [tex]f(\frac{x}2)[/tex].
Solution:
We have found that [tex]f(x) =(x+1) (x-2)[/tex]
Replacing [tex]x[/tex] with [tex]\frac{x}2[/tex]:
[tex]f(\frac{x}2) =(\frac{x}2+1) (\frac{x}2-2)[/tex]
Now, Let us put it equal to 0 to find the zeroes.
[tex]f(\frac{x}2) =(\frac{x}2+1) (\frac{x}2-2) = 0\\\Rightarrow (\frac{x}2+1) = 0 \ OR\ (\frac{x}2-2) =0\\\Rightarrow \frac{x}{2} = -1\ OR\ \frac{x}{2}=2\\\Rightarrow \bold{x =-2, 4}[/tex]
So, the zeroes are -2, 4.

Step-by-step explanation:
In a local kickball league, the ratio of college graduates with a graduate degree to non-college graduates is 1:8, and the ratio of college graduates without a graduate degree to non-college graduates is 2:3. If one random college graduate is picked, what is the probability that they hold a graduate degree
Answer:
3 / 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
ratio of college graduates with a graduate degree to non-college graduates = 1:8
ratio of college graduates without a graduate degree to non-college graduates is 2:3
If college graduate with a degree = A
College graduate without a degree = B
Non-college graduate = C
College graduate to non college graduate = A:C
College graduate without degree to non college graduate = B:C
A:C = 1:8 - - - (1) ; B:C = 2:3 - - - (2)
Combining the two ratios :
To do so : the proportion of non college graduate should be the same in both ratios
To do this, multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by 8
A:C = 3 : 24
B:C = 16 : 24
combining both, we have :
A:B:C = 3:16:24
If one random college graduate is picked, what is the probability that they hold a graduate degree?
Total proportion of college graduate : (college graduates with degree + college graduates without degree)
A + B = (3 + 16) = 19
Proportion who hold a graduate degree = A = 3
Probability = require outcome / Total possible outcomes
Thus :
P = A / (A +B)
= 3/19
