Answer:

6 bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you want to know how many 3/8 lb bananas you need to arrive at BETWEEN 2 and 2 1/2 lbs of that fruit.

The appropriate inequality would be:

2 lb  ≤  [ (3/8) lb ]x  ≤  2  1/2 lb.

We can make this problem easier to solve by using fractions throughout.  The LCD here is 8.  Note that 1 = 8/8 and 2 = 16/8.  Also, 1/2 = 4/8, so that 2 1/2 =  2 4/8 = 20/8.

Then  2 lb  ≤  [ (3/8) lb ]x  ≤  2  1/2 lb  becomes:

         16/8 lb ≤  (3/8 lb)x  ≤ 20/8 lb.  Multiplying this through by 8 to remove the fractions, we get:

            16 ≤  3x  ≤  20, '

Looking first at 16 ≤ 3x, we get 16/3 ≤ x   or   x ≥ 16/3.  But we're speaking ONLY of WHOLE bananas, not thirds of bananas.  Thus, x > 18/3, or x ≥  6.

Going through a similar process with  3x ≤ 20, we get x ≤ 20/3.  The first integer x value smaller than 20/3 is 18/3, or 6.

So there is only one possible value for x:  It is 6, as in 6 bananas.  This satisfies the original inequality   2 lb  ≤  [ (3/8) lb ]x  ≤  2  1/2 lb.

Answer:

Cody was 148.5cm on the first day of school last year.

Step-by-step explanation:

10% = 0.1

165 x 0.1 = 16.5

165 - 16.5 = 148.5

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK
stellarik [79]

Answer:

9.11x10^-28

Step-by-step explanation:

1.67x10^-24 would be .000000000000000000000000167 and 9.11x10^-28 would be .0000000000000000000000000000911 and because it has more zeros in front of it, 9.11x10^-28 would be the smaller mass

I'm 99.99999999999999999% sure this is correct.

G = {(5,3), (2, 3), (6,4)} Is G^-1 a function and why?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

The inverse relation G^(-1) is not a function. Why not? Because the y value y = 3 is paired up with more than one x value (x = 5, x = 2). The inverse relation G^(-1) is the set shown below

{(3,5), (3,2), (4,6)}

All I've done is swap the (x,y) values for each ordered pair to form the inverse relation. As you can see, x = 3 leads to multiple y value outputs which is why this relation is not a function. So in short, the answer is choice C. To have the inverse relation be a function, each value in the original domain must map to exactly one value in the range only. However that doesn't happen as the domain values map to an overlapping y value (y = 3).

Which of these debts could possibly be forgiven under Chapter 7 bankruptcy? A. Credit Card Debt B. Child Support C. Alimony D. A
a_sh-v [17]
Chapter 7 - Bankruptcy is a very beneficial means for those facing severe financial uncertainty or debts. And even though it cannot remove all your liability, it can help you eliminate a number of arrears so you can begin working to reestablish your credit score. These are the debts which are not forgiven in Chapter 7: student loans, child support, alimony payments, majority of taxes you owe and secured or collateral debts.

So the answer is A. Credit Card. A credit card debt can be forgiven under chapter 7 because it is the main reason why people file for bankruptcy just to discharge their credit card balance.
