1 Member = 1.5 Cup (Over the age of 10) for one day

7 Member (Over age of 10) = 1.5*7=10.5 cups in total.

Total of 10.5 per day.

In a week (Equivalent to 7 days):

10.5*7=73.5 Cups of beans in total

A marine biologist is studying the growth of a particular species of fish. She writes the following equation to show the length
inn [45]

Answer:

The original function is f(m) = 5(1.07)^m, with the m as an exponent

part A) if the final length is 9.19, we can set f(m) = 9.19 and solve for m

plugging it into a calculator, I get m = ~8.99, so a bit less than 9. therefore, a reasonable domain might be all the m values 9 or below, or m ≤ 9

part B) the y-intercept of a function is the value of the independent variable when the dependent variable = 0. the two variables in your problem are height and number of months - which one do you think is the independent one, and which one is dependent? then re-interpret "value of the independent variable when the dependent variable = 0" in terms of the actual quantities that the variables represent

part C) average rate of change from m = 1 to m = 9

f(9)−f(1)9−1

evaluate, and think about what that represents in terms of height and number of months

Delaney would like to make a 10 lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds. She has several pounds of peanuts and severa
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

a) p + m = 10 and \frac{p + 0.2m}{0.8m} = \frac{60}{40}

b) The mixing amount is 5 lb peanut and 5 lb mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p pounds of peanuts and m pounds of the 80% almond and 20% peanut mixture are used to make 10 pounds of 60% peanuts and 40% of almonds mixture.

Now, we can write that p + m = 10 ........ (1)  

Now, m pounds of 80% almond and 20% peanut mixture contain 0.2m pounds of peanuts and 0.8m pounds of almonds.

Now, from the condition given it can be written that  

\frac{p + 0.2m}{0.8m} = \frac{60}{40} .......... (2)

⇒ \frac{p + 0.2m}{0.8m} = \frac{3}{2}

⇒ 2p + 0.4m = 2.4m

⇒ 2p = 2m

⇒ p = m  

Now from equation (1) we get p = m = 5 pounds.

a) Therefore, equations (1) and (2) are the system of equations that models the situation.

b) The mixing amount is 5 lb peanut and 5 lb mixture. (Answer)
