For this case we have the following conversion:
 1 pound = 16 ounces
 Then we rewrite the sack weights:
 14 pounds 9 ounces = 14 9/16
 9 pounds 14 ounces = 9 14/16 = 9 7/8
 Then, we subtract both values:
 (14 9/16) - (9 7/8) = 4.6875 = 4 + 0.6875
 Rewriting:
 4 + 0.6875 = 4 + 6875/1000
 4 + 1375/200 = 4 + 275/40
 4 + 275/40 = 4 + 55/8
 Answer:
 
the weight of the potatoes wendy use for the potato salad is:
 
4 + 55/8 pounds

Evaluate the function for x=4 <br> F(x)= x^3+2x^2+1
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

F(4) = 97

Step-by-step explanation:

F(x)= x³+2x²+1

when x = 4

F(4)= 4³+2(4²)+1

= 4³+2(4²)+1

= 64 + 2(16) + 1

= 64 + 32 + 1

= 97

Writte a fraction that is less than 5/6and has a denominator of 8
Vsevolod [243]
If you divide 5 by 6 to turn it into a decimal, you get 0.83. All you have to do is find a numerator that you can divide by 8 to get a decimal less than 0.83.

So, 1/8, 2/8, 3/8, 4/8, 5/8, or 6/8 would work.
