He bought 19/24 pounds of grapes.
You need to find the common denominators then add.

3/8 = 9/24 - Red grapes
5/12 = 10/24 - Green grapes

10/24 + 9/24 = 19/24.
Therefore, he bought 19/24 pounds of grapes.
Hope this helped! :-)

You should have drawn1 - x-axis and y-axis in light pencil.2 - graphed a down-facing parabola with the top of the frown on the y-axis at y = 2.  It should be crossing the x-axis at ±√2.  This should be in dark pencil or another color.3 - In dark pencil or a completely new color, draw a rectangle with one of the horizontal sides sitting on top of the x-axis and the other horizontal side touching the parabola at each of the top corners of the rectangle. The rectangle will have half of its base in the positive x-axis and the other half on the negative x-axis.  It should be split right down the middle by the y-axis.  So each half of the base we will say is "x" units long.  So the whole base is 2x units long (the x units to the right of the y-axis, and the x units to the left of the y-axis)  I so wish I could draw you this picture...   In the vertical direction, both vertical edges are the same length and we will call that y.   The area that we want to maximize has a width 2x long, and a height of y tall. So A = 2xy     This is the equation we want to maximize (take derivative and set it = 0), we call it the "primary equation", but we need it in one variable. This is where the "secondary equation" comes in.  We need to find a way to change the area formula to all x's or all y's. Since it is constrained to having its height limited by the parabola, we could use the fact that y=2 - x2 to make the area formula in only x's.   Substitute in place of the "y", "2 - x2" into the area formula. A = 2xy = 2x(2 - x2)   then simplify A = 4x - 2x3     NOW you are ready to take the deriv and set it = 0 dA/dx = 4 - 6x2       0 = 4 - 6x2   6x2 = 4    x2 = 4/6 or 2/3 So x = ±√(2/3) Width remember was 2x.   So the width is 2[√(2/3)]Height is y which is 2 - x2 = 2 - 2/3  =4/3

Three consecutive numbers are such that when they are taken in increasing order and multiplied by 2,3and 4 respectively, they ad
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

7 , 8 , 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume three consecutive number are,

x , (x+1) , (x+2)

Multiplied by 2 ,3 and 4 respectively

2x , 3(x + 1) , 4(x + 2)

Sum of all = 74

So,

2x + 3(x + 1) + 4(x + 2) = 74

2x + 3x + 3 + 4x + 8 = 74

9x + 11 = 74

9x = 63

x = 7

So,

x , (x+1) , (x+2)

7 , (7+1) , (7+2)

7 , 8 , 9

Which value, when placed in the box, would result in a system of equations with infinitely many solutions? y = -2x 4 6x 3y =
wariber [46]

The missing value is 12 in a system of equations with infinitely many solutions conditions.

It is given that in the system of equations there are two equations given:

\rm y =n -2x+4\\\rm and \\\rm 6x+3y= ?

It is required to find the missing value in the second equation.

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

We have equations:

\rm y = -2x+4 ....(1)\\  \\\rm 6x+3y= ?  ....(2)

Let's suppose the missing value is 'Z'

We know that the two pairs of equations have infinitely many solutions if and if they have the same coefficients of variables and the same constant on both sides.

From equation (1)

\rm y = -2x+4 \\\\\rm 2x+y=4(multiply both the sides by 3)

\rm 6x+3y=12 ...(3)

By comparing the equation (2) and (3), we get

M = 12

Thus, the missing value is 12 in a system of equations with infinitely many solutions conditions.
