Answer:

Around 217 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's convert the height into inches.

5 feet 8 = 5\cdot12 + 8 = 60 + 8 = 68

6 feet = 6\cdot12 = 72.

We can set up a proportion

\frac{205}{68} = \frac{x}{72}

We can use the cross products property to find x.

205\cdot72=14760\\\\\\14760\div68\approx217

Hope this helped!

Answer:

217.0588235 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert ft inches to inches

5 ft = 5*12 = 60 inches

5 ft 8 inches = 68 inches

6 ft = 6*12 = 72 inches

We can use ratios to solve

205 lbs        x lbs

------------- = ----------------

68 inches     72 inches

Using cross products

205 * 72 = 68x

Divide by 68

205 *72/68 = x

217.0588235 lbs

Which graph represents a function? A coordinate plane shows 4 points with the following coordinates: (negative 3, 3), (negative
Jet001 [13]

The ordered pair that represents a function is:

⇒ (-3, 3), (-2, -2), (1, 1), (2, -2)

<u>What are Coordinates?</u>

A pair of numbers that describe the exact position of a point on a cartesian plane by using horizontal and vertical lines are called the coordinates.

The given points are;

(-3, 3), (-3, -3), (-1, 1), (1, 4)

(-3, 3), (-2, -2), (1, 1), (2, -2)

(-3, 3), (-3, -3), (1, -4), (1, 1)

(-4, 4), (-4, 1), (-2, 1), (2, 1)

Now, For an ordered pair to be a function, either of the following must be true:

Each x-value has exactly one corresponding y-value.

More than one x-values have the same corresponding y-values.

And, If any of the following conditions is true, then the ordered pair is not a function,

One x-value has multiple corresponding y-values.

More than one x-values have multiple corresponding y-values.

From the given options, only ordered pair  (-3, 3), (-2, -2), (1, 1), (2, -2) satisfies the condition to be a function.

Because none of its x-values have multiple corresponding y-values.

And, Other ordered pairs are either one-to-many or many-to-many.

So, The ordered pair that represents a function is:

⇒  (-3, 3), (-2, -2), (1, 1), (2, -2)

The best way to achieve significant increases in interest after all in a savings account is through?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: The answer is (d) Compounding.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given four options out of we are to select the best way through which we can achieve significant increases in interest after all in a savings account.

Increases in principle and increases in time will not give the result, because we are talking about a fixed amount of money for a fixed time.

Also, increases in interest is not in our hand.

So, only we can do is compounding. Here, in same amount of money and time, the rate of interest will automatically increase.

Thus, the correct option is (d) Compounding.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I take you mean that f(x) = 4x + 1. If it really is C leave a note below the question, and I'll come back if you post within the hour.

f(3) = 4*3 + 1

f(3) = 12 + 1

f(3) = 13
