Answer: The price of candies in cents per ounce is 20.31 cents per ounce.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Jackson bought 3 pounds of candies for $9.75.

We are to find the price of the candies in cents per ounce.

We know that

1 dollar = 100 cents and 1 pound = 16 ounces.

Given that

Price of 3 pounds of candies = $ 9.75 = 9.75 × 100 cents = 975 cents.

So, price of 1 pound of candies will be

$\dfrac{975}{3}=325~\textup{cents}.$

This implies that, price of 16 ounces of candies = 325 cents.

Therefore, price of 1 ounce of candies will be

$\dfrac{325}{16}=20.31~\textup{cents}.$

Thus, the price of candies in cents per ounce is 20.31 cents per ounce.

Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum values, if any, of the function. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.)f(x) =

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

The absolute minimum value is " $-\frac{21}{4}$ " and the absolute maximum value is " $15$ ".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$f(x)=x^2-x-5$

on,

$[0,5]$

By differentiating it, we get

⇒ $f'(x)=2x-1$

Set $f'(x)=0$

then,

⇒ $2x-1=0$

$2x=1$

$x=\frac{1}{2}$ (Critical point)

When x=0,

⇒ $f(x)=-5$

When $x=\frac{1}{2}$ ,

⇒ $f(x)=-\frac{21}{4}$ (Absolute minimum)

When $x=5$

⇒ $f(x)=15$ (Absolute maximum)

Observe the expression below and select the true statement(s).

DENIUS [597]

Answer: The 9 in the second term is a coefficient that is true. I think that is the only thing that is true. There may be one more thing that is true.

The 10 in the third term is not a coefficient.

The 2 is not a constant

the x is not an exponent.

those are the ones that I'm sure about.

Please correct anything if i'm wrong.
