Fia needs 3/4 cups of brown sugar.

Now she has two types of measuring cups 1/3 measuring cup and 1/8 measuring cup.

Now let us divide 3/4 by each and see which one gives us more accurate answer.

With 1/3 measuring cup

Dividing 3/4 by 1/3, multiplying reciprocal of 1/3 that is 3/1 with 3/4

\frac{3}{4}  * \frac{3}{1}

=\frac{9}{4}

With 1/8 measuring cup

Dividing 3/4 by 1/8, multiplying reciprocal of 1/8 that is 8/1 with 3/4

\frac{3}{4}  * \frac{8}{1}

=6

Now here we can see that its easier to measure 6 full cups than fraction 9/4 cups.

So we can say that its better to use 1/8 measuring cup.

A rectangle has a width of 2cm and a perimeter of 25cm. Find the length and the area .
Gwar [14]

2w + 2l = 25

2 * 2 + 2l = 25

<em><u>Simplfiy.</u></em>

4 + 2l = 25

<em><u>Subtract 4 from both sides.</u></em>

2l = 21

<em><u>Divide both sides by 2.</u></em>

l = 10.5

Now that we have the value of l, we can find the area.

A = lw

A = 10.5 * 2

A = 21.

The length is 10.5cm.

The area of the rectangle is 21cm^2

Plz help! what is the end of behavior of f(x)?
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The end behavior of a function is how the graph behaves as it approaches negative and positive infinity.

Let's take a look at each end.

As x approaches negative infinity:

As x approaches the left towards negative infinity, we can see that the graph is shooting straight upwards.

Therefore, as x\rightarrow-\infty, our function f(x) is increasing and increasing up towards positive infinity.

Therefore, the end behavior at the left will be:

\text{As } x\rightarrow-\infty, f(x)\rightarrow\infty

As x approaches (positive) infinity:

As x approaches the right towards positive infinity, we can see the that graph is also shooting straight upwards.

Therefore, the end behavior will be exactly the same. As x approaches positive infinity, f(x) <em>also</em> approaches positive infinity.

Therefore, the end behavior at the right will be:

\text{As } x\rightarrow \infty, f(x)\rightarrow \infty

Therefore, our answer is B.
