Answer:

O weight in kilograms = 25 x 3.5 ÷ 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

As a butcher, you sell beef in 3.5-pound packages. You anticipate needing 25 packages for the next two days.

Therefore, the total number of pounds for the 25 packages =

3.5 pound packages × 25

= 87.5 pounds

We are told that : The wholesaler from whom you purchase large pieces of meat measures the weight of the beef in kilograms.

Note that:

2.2 pounds = 1 kg

Hence:

87.5 pounds =

= 87.5÷ 2.2

= 39.772727273 kg

He needs to buy 39.772727273kg from the wholesaler

The equation can you use to determine the weight of the beef, in kilograms, that you need to purchase from the wholesaler is:

O weight in kilograms = (25 x 3.5) ÷ 2.2

If the function f(x) = (2x - 3)2 is transformed to g(x) = (-2x - 3), which type of transformation occurred?

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

A. horizontal reflection

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$f(x)=(2x-3)^2$

$g(x)=(-2x-3)^2$

To identify the type of transformation.

Solution:

On close observation of the functions we find the that sign of $x$ has changed in $g(x)$ with other terms being constant.

<em>Thus, the transformation statement can be given as:</em>

$f(x)\rightarrow f(-x)$

As:

$f(x)=(2x-3)^2$

$f(-x)=(2(-x)-3)^2= (-2x-3)^2 = g(x)$

The transformation $f(x)\rightarrow f(-x)$ describes horizontal reflection of function across the y-axis.

Thus, $f(x)$ is horizontally reflected across y-axis to get $g(x)$ .

When a = 6 and b = 22, C = 33. If c varies directly with b and inversely with a, which equation models the situation?

S_A_V [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

C=b/a

c=kb/a

where as k is the constant

c=kb/a

we substitute

33=22k/6

crossed multiply

33*6= 22k

198=22k

we divide both sides by 22

198/22=22k/22

K=9
