Answer:

there are 54 buffalos in 150 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

1. determine the rate of buffalos per acres

45 buffalos per 125 acres =

45 / 125 =

0.36 buffalos per 1 acre

now we know the rate of buffalos per 1 acre, we can multiply it by the required amount of acres (in this case 150)

buffalos per 1 acre x total acres = total buffalos per total acres

0.36 x 150 = 54 buffalos

therefore, there are 54 buffalos per 150 acres.

hope this helps :)

It would be number 3. 1/7,3/7,4/7,6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

For fractions if the denominator is the same you go to the numerator (the top number) to compare. The bigger the numerator is (like 6) the higher it should go on your list.

Which graph represents the function of f(x) = the quantity of 9 x squared plus 9 x minus 18, all over 3 x plus 6

lora16 [44]

Answer:

The answer is the option C

graph of $3x$ minus $3$ , with discontinuity at negative $2$ , negative $9$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=\frac{9x^{2}+9x-18}{3x+6}$

Simplify

$f(x)=9\frac{(x^{2}+x-2)}{3(x+2)}$

$f(x)=3\frac{(x^{2}+x-2)}{(x+2)}$

Step 1

Convert to a factored form the numerator

$x^{2}+x-2=0$

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$x^{2}+x=2$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

$x^{2}+x+0.25=2+0.25$

$x^{2}+x+0.25=2.25$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$(x+0.5)^{2}=2.25$

Square root both sides

$x+0.5=(+/-)1.5$

$x=-0.5(+/-)1.5$

$x=-0.5+1.5=1$

$x=-0.5-1.5=-2$

$x^{2}+x-2=(x-1)(x+2)$

Step 2

Simplify the function f(x)

$f(x)=3\frac{(x^{2}+x-2)}{(x+2)}=3\frac{(x-1)(x+2)}{(x+2)}$

The domain of the function f(x) is all real numbers except the number $x=-2$

Because the denominator can not be zero

$f(x)=3\frac{(x-1)(x+2)}{(x+2)}=3(x-1)=3x-3$

$f(x)=3x-3$ ------> with a discontinuity at $x=-2$

$f(-2)=3(-2)-3=-9$

The discontinuity is at point $(-2,-9)$
