First work out the 'multiplier'

3 + 5 + 9 = 17 so Multiplier = 1/17

$558 is the largest share  and that equals  9 * 1/17  of x  where x is the total amount of money

9x / 17 = 558

x = (558 * 17) / 9  =   $1054

So the smallest share  = 3 /17  *  1054 =  $186  Answer

Explain how the statement "there is 3/4 cup per serving" represents a rate.
Aleonysh [2.5K]
There is 3/4 cup of whatever in one serving. If that serving amount changed to 2, then the 3/4 would be multiplied by 2. If there is half a serving, then it would be divided by 2. There is a constant change, and not one that is always changing.

If f(x) = V7x + 31 , find f(0).
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

f(0) = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following function:

f(x) = \sqrt{7x} + 31

f(0).

This is the value of f when x = 0. So

f(0) = \sqrt{7*0} + 31 = \sqrt{0} + 31 = 0 + 31 = 31

So f(0) = 31
