Answer:

2196 fish

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of fish that the killer whale might eat in a month (30 days) = 14,000 lb

Weight of the fish that killer whale might eat in a day = \frac{14000}{30} = \frac{1400}{3} lb.

Average weight of the fish that killer whale eats = 3.4 oz

Since,

1 pound(lb) = 16 ounces(oz)

So,

Weight of the fish that killer whale might eat in a day in ounces(oz) = \frac{1400}{3} \times 16=\frac{22400}{3} oz

Since, a certain fish weighs 3.4 oz, in order to find the number of fish that killer whale must eat, we must divide the total weight in ounces by 3.4 ounces.

So, the number of fish that killer whale would eat = \frac{22400}{3} \div 3.4 = 2196 fish

Thus, the killer whale needs to eat 2196 fish.

Help ASAP 50 pomits because i need help in 4 points.
Orlov [11]
9. The slope for this one is 21 bc y1-y2/x1-x2 is the slope formula and this can be used between any two points (I used the first two) -30-(-54)/ 7-11 which is -84/-4= 21

10. Rate of change is the same thing as slope so 4.5-5/18-20 which is -0.5/-2 which means the rate of change is 2.5

11. 23-39/1-3 which is -16/-2 which means the rate of change is 8

12. 5/4 is 1.25 so the sports drink costs 1.25$ each

Hope this helped :)
