Answer:

Solution

To solve the problem first we have simplify the improper fraction.

⇒ 33/4 ÷ 4 pounds.

= (4 × 3 + 3) /4 ÷ 4 pounds.

= 15/4 ÷ 4 pounds.

= 15/4 × 1/4 pounds.

= 15/16 pounds.

Now we know that, 1 pound = 16 ounces.

Therefore, 15/16 pounds .

= 15/16 × 16 ounces.

= 15/1

= 15

= 15 ounces.

Answer: 15 ounces.

The expression log 3 (x-4) is undefined for all values such that
suter [353]
Translate it

remember that log_a(b)=c translates to a^c=b
so we can say it equals y
so
log_3(x-4)=y translates to 3^y=x-4

we want to find the values of x that make it undefined
well, we know that 3^y must be greater than 0
so we do
it is defined for
x-4>0
add 4
x>4

it is defined for all values such that x>4

Choose the equivalent system of linear equations that will produce the same solution as the one given below:
skelet666 [1.2K]
D is the answer as the both have solution x=-2 y=3
14x=-28       12(-2)-3y=-33
x=-2              -3y=-9
                       y=3
from the given equation
4x-y=11 eq 1
2x+3y=5 eq 2
x=y-11/4 from equation 1
subsitute this value of x in equation 2
2(y-11/4)+3y=5
y-11+6y=10
7y-11=10
y=3
subsitude this value of y in equation (x=y-11/4)
so x= -2 
thus same solution so ANSWER IS D
