The question requires us to form an algebraic expression in order to calculate Dominic's weight, after telling us his weigh with respect to his peers and the sum of their weights. Let D represent Dominic's weight, R represent Ralph's weight and P represent Peter's weight. From the given information, we can form:
2D = R
3D = P
P + R + D = 720
Now, we substitute values into the last equation:
3D + 2D + D = 720
6D = 720
D = 120
Dominic's weight is 120 pounds

Graph the ellipse with equation x squared divided by nine plus y squared divided by sixteen = 1
gladu [14]
X²/9 + y²/16 = 1

The general for mula of an ellipse is:

(x-h)²/a²  + (y-k)²/b² = 1. Since h = k = 0, this ellipse
x²/9 + y²/16 = 1
passes by the center O. (Note that a = 3 and b = 4)

Moreover sin b>a  so the majore axis is (on the y-axis) and a the minor axis (on the x-axis) [Its shape is as a vertical egg].

On a system of perpendicular axis that intercept in O., take on the x-axis 2 points A & B with respective coordinate A(3.0) and B(-3,0)
On the y-axis your report A'(0,+4) and B'(0,-4). So you have the vertex of the ellipse, then it's easy to draw it

Two piecewise functions are shown below. What is the value of
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure what your problem here is.

you understand the inequality signs ?

anyway, to get

6×f(-2) + 3×g(1)

we can calculate every part of the expression separately, and then combine all the results into one final result.

f(-2)

we look at the definition.

into what category is -2 falling ? the one with x<-2, or the one with x>=-2 ?

is -2 < -2 ? no.

is -2 >= -2 ? yes, because -2 = -2. therefore, it is also >= -2.

so, we have to use

1/3 x³

for x = -2 that is

1/3 × (-2)³ = 1/3 × -8 = -8/3

g(1)

again, we look at the definition.

into what category is 1 falling ? the one with x > 2 ? or the one with x <= 1 ?

is 1 > 2 ? no.

is 1 <= 1 ? yes, because 1=1. therefore it is also <= 1.

so we have to use

2×|x - 1| + 3

for x = 1 we get

2×0 + 3 = 3

6×f(-2) = 6 × -8/3 = 2× -8 = -16

3×g(1) = 3× 3 = 9

and so in total we get

6×f(-2) + 3×g(1) = -16 + 9 = -7
