Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First,You have to realize that if you multiply the amount of food by something, you multiply the amount of calories. if some piece of food is 100 calories what happens if you eat 2? you get 2 times that number of calories. Same fi you eat half of one of that kind of food. You get half the amount of calories.
Here he makes 1 1/2 (one and a half) times the amount. Now, if this is confusing you just need to realize that multiplying by this is the same as multiplying by 1+1/2. Say, again, a piece of food is 100 calories. Multiplying it by this would look like the following.
100(1+1/2)
100*1 + 100*1/2
100+50
150
So if you ever have a mixed number like this you could split it up into an addition problem and then distribute hat you're multiplying. Another solution is to multiply by the improper fraction, which here is 3/2, so 100*3/2=150 as well. Let me know if you don't get how to get the improper fraction or how to multiply fractions.
Now, super simple, just multiply the calories by that number.
310(1+1/2) = 310(3/2)
310 + 155 = 930/2
465 = 465
Kinda showed how to multiply by fractions, still if you don't get it let me know.
Answer:
d) x-intercept
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeros of a function are the values of x that make y = 0.
Thus, they are the points where the graph crosses the x-axis, that is, the x-intercepts.
a) is wrong. the y-intercept is simply the value of y when x = 0.
b) and c) are wrong. A quadratic can have only one maximum or one minimum; it can't have both. And they are not zeros except in the special case of y = ±ax².
The diagram below is the graph of y = x² + 3x - 46. It shows the zeros at x = -23 and x = 20. The minimum and the y-intercept are not zeros of the function.
Answer
The median is 155
Step-by-step explanation:
You get the numbers from least to greatest then the middle number is your median.
The way you should go about solving this really depends on how your teacher taught you...However, here's what I would recommend...
You know that 1/2 an hour is equal to 30 minutes, and 3/4 of an hour is equal to 45 minutes.
Using this you can then solve for how many pages she read per minute by dividing the number of pages read by the number of minutes read:11 pages/ 30 minutes to give you Monday's reading speed,and18 pages/ 45 minutes to give you Tuesday's reading speed.
Next, to calculate a percentage increase you need to do the following:
1. Determine the difference between the speeds (this means you will subtract Monday's reading speed from Tuesday's reading speed.)
2. Next you take that number and divide it by Monday's reading speed.
3. Multiply that answer by 100 to get the percentage.
I'm not going to tell you the speeds, as you should try to attempt to solve it by yourself, and I'm sure you need to show your work. I will however tell you that you should find there was a 3.3% increase from Monday to Tuesday.
