Given:
grams of fat : 34 grams TO weight of woman : 102 pounds
grams of fat : ? TO weight of woman : 180 pounds

This is a proportion problem: 34 grams to 102 pounds.

We first have to convert a unit of measure to another to maintain uniformity of measure. let us convert pounds to grams:

102 pounds * 453.592 grams / pound = 46,266.384 grams
180 pounds * 453.592 grams / pound = 81,646.560 grams

34 grams to 46,266.384 grams = x grams to 81,646.560 grams

proportion: a:b = c:d where ad = bc

34 grams * 81,646.560 grams = x * 46,266.384 grams
2,775,983.04 grams² = x * 46,266.384 grams
2,775,983.04 grams² ÷ 46,266.384 grams = x
60 grams = x 

A woman weighing 180 pounds should eat 60 grams of fat to maintain her weight.

What name best describes this shape?
EastWind [94]

Answer: Quadrilateral

Explanation:

Any four sided polygon is considered a quadrilateral since "quad" means "four". You can think of a quad bike, which has four wheels, to help remember this math term.

Usually in problems like this, we'll be given information about if certain sides are parallel or the same length. However, we don't this info, so we cannot narrow down this classification anymore.

Let f(x) = x + 8 and g(x) = x2 − 6x − 7. Find f(g(2)).
just olya [345]
Mathematical Work:
f(x)=x+8
g(x)=x2-6x-7
f(g(2))=(2^2-6(2)-7)+8
f(g(2))=(4-12-7)+8
f(g(2))=-7
Explanation:
f(x)=x+8
g(x)=x2-6x-7
f(g(2))=?
2 was given as the x for function g and when you substitute 2 into function g's equation(g(2)=(2^2-6(2)-7)=-15, you would get -15. The answer to function g would be the x for function f. Which would be f(-15)=-15+8 and the answer for f(g(2)) is -7.
