Answer:
3.05 or 31/2 pounds
56 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total weight all the weights have to have the same units of measurements
It is either pounds is converted to ounces or ounces is converted to pounds
1. convert ounces to pound
1 ounce = 0.0625
12 ounces = 0.0625 x 12 = 0.75 pounds or 3/4
add together = 1 1/2 + 3/4 + 1 1/4 =
=
= 3 1/2
2. 16 ounces = 1 pound
flour = 16 x 1 1/2 = 24
sugar = 16 x 1 1/4 = 20
total = 24 + 20 + 12 = 56 ounces
Using exponential function concepts, it is found that the second function has a greater rate, as 0.8 > 0.2.
<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>It is modeled by:
In which:
- a is the initial value, that is, y when x = 0.
- b is the rate of change, as a decimal.
Function 1 is given by:
Hence the rate is b = 0.2.
Considering the values on the table, function 2 is given by:
Hence the rate is b = 0.8.
Hence, the second function has a greater rate, as 0.8 > 0.2.
