Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a couple ways of thinking about this.  Probably the fastest way is the rule, but the rule is not intuitive.  The rule is when you divide fraction, you keep the first fraction the same and then multiple and flip the second fraction.

2/8 x 18/9 = 36/72  To reduce the fraction, could keep dividing the top and the bottom by the same number until it is no longer possible, I could use: 2, 4 3, 9, 18, or 36.  If I used 36, I would only have to divide once.  36/16 is 1 and 72/36 is 2 so my answer would be 1/2.

I could have divided the top and bottom by 2 and got 18/36 and then divide by 2 again and get 9/18 and then by 9 and get 1/2.  As you can, see there are a lot of option.  

The second method is in the picture that I sent you, it is a little more work, but it makes sense.

What is the quadratic regression equation that fits these data?
elena55 [62]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  D.  y = -0.32x² -1.26x +15.81

Step-by-step explanation:

This is one of those multiple-choice questions where you only need a vague idea of what the answer is supposed to look like.

In this case the answer must be a quadratic equation with a negative leading coefficient. (The parabola opens downward.)

The only answer choice that is a 2nd degree polynomial with a negative leading coefficient is choice D.

__

A: linear equation

B: exponential equation

C: quadratic that opens upward (positive leading coefficient)

D: quadratic that opens downward -- the answer you're looking for

Tyler went to the supermarket to buy food for a food pantry. He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack.
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

  • solutions: (2, 10), (4, 5)
  • non-solutions: all other points

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be useful to graph the inequalities related to Tyler's limits of money and weight.

  1x +3y ≤ 36 . . . . . . the limit on the cost of the items Tyler can afford

  1x +1.5y ≤ 20 . . . . . the limit on the weight of the items Tyler can carry

Then plotting the given points shows that only (2, 10) and (4, 5) are in the doubly-shaded area that is the solution space. The other points are not a solution.
