Fraction of shampoo left = \frac{13}{24}

Solution:

Given fraction of full shampoo  =\frac{7}{8}.

Fraction of shampoo Margaret used  =\frac{1}{3}

Fraction of shampoo left = Full shampoo – fraction of shampoo used

                                          =\frac{7}{8}-\frac{1}{3}

To make the denominators same do cross multiplication.

                                          =\frac{7\times3}{8\times3}-\frac{1\times8}{3\times8}

                                          =\frac{21}{24}-\frac{8}{24}

                                          =\frac{21-8}{24}

                                          =\frac{13}{24}

Hence \frac{13}{24} of the shampoo bottle is left.

What constant do you need to add to each quadratic to complete the square? 1. x2 - 4x = 0 4 2. x2 - 8x = 6 9 3. 3x2 + 18x = 24 1
Radda [10]
1) You must add 4 to each side to complete the square.
2) You must add 16 to each side to complete the square.
3) You must add 27 to each side to complete the square.

Explanation:
1) x²-4x=0
To find the number that we add to both sides, we look at b, the cofficient of x.  It is -4. We divide it by 2 and square it; -4/2 = -2; (-2)² = 4.  This is the value that we add to both sides.

2) x²-8x=6
-8/2 = -4; (-4)²=16
We add 16 to each side to complete the square.

3) 3x²+18x=24
First we can factor a 3 out of the left side:
3(x²+6x) = 24
Our b value is now 6.  6/2 = 3; 3²=9.  The 9 would, however, go in the parentheses, so it would be multiplied by 3, which makes 27; this means we would add 27 to both sides.

Which statement best describes how to determine whether f(x) = 9- 4x4 is an odd function?
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: In the given function the power of x should be 2 instead of 4, otherwise all options are incorrect.

Consider the given function is

f(x)=9-4x^2

If f(-x)=f(x), then f(x) is an even function.

If f(-x)=-f(x), then f(x) is an odd function.

Now, substitute x=-x in the given function.

f(-x)=9-4(-x)^2

f(-x)=9-4(x)^2

f(-x)=f(x)

So, the given function not an odd function. It means it is an even function.

To check whether the given function is odd, we have to determine whether 9-4(-x)^2 is equivalent to -(9-4(x)^2).

Therefore, the correct option is C.
