Answer:

$3.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the <em>pounds of broccoli</em>.

Start with what you know: you want 32 oz of broccoli.

You know that 1 lb = 16 oz. Calculate the weight in pounds

Wt = 32 × 1/16

Wt = 2 lb

===============

Step 2. Calculate the <em>cost of the broccoli</em>.

$1.50 = 1 lb Calculate the cost

Cost = 2 × 1.50/1

Cost = $3.00

Segments AB, DC and Ec intersect at point C. Angel DCE measures 148. Find the value of x.

Anna71 [15]

The image is attached.

Answer:

x = 16°

Step-by-step explanation:

Segment AB, segment DC and segment EC all intersect at point C.

Here, we are told angle DCE measures 148°.

This is a semi-circle, and the total angle of a semi-circle is 180°.

Which means, x+x+148 = 180

Solving for x, we have:

x+x+148 = 180

2x + 148 = 180

2x = 180 - 148

2x = 32

$x = \frac{32}{2}$

x = 16°

The value of x is 16°

State whether f is a function

Alenkinab [10]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

$y=\pm (\frac{x}{6})^{\frac{1}{4}} \ is \ not \ a \ function$

<h2>Step by step solution:</h2>

A function $f$ from a set $A$ to a set $B$ is a relation that assigns to each element $x$ in the set $A$ exactly one element $y$ in the set $B$ . The set $A$ is the domain (also called the set of inputs) of the function and the set $B$ contains the range (also called the set of outputs). On the other hand, a function has an inverse function if and only if passes the Horizontal Line Test for Inverse Functions. This test tells us that a function $f$ has an inverse function if and only if there is no any horizontal line that intersects the graph of $f$ at more than one point. So the function is called one-to-one. The graph of $f$ is shown below. As you can see, this function does not pass the Horizontal Line Test, therefore the inverse is not a function. However, let's find $f^-{1}(x)$ :

$f(x)=6x^4 \\ \\ Substitute \ f(x) \ by \ y \\ \\ y=6x^4 \\ \\ Interchange \ x \ and \ y: \\ \\ x=6y^4 \\ \\ Solve \ for \ y: \\ \\ y^4=\frac{x}{6} \\ \\ Solving \\ \\y=\pm \sqrt[4]{\frac{x}{6}} \\ \\ \boxed{y=\pm \left(\frac{x}{6}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}}}$

and this is not a function because there are elements in the set of inputs that match with two elements in the set of outputs.

at the start of the shift your part counter reads 250 at the end of the shift the part counter reads 1075 how many parts did you

Luden [163]

This can be mathematically expressed to
250 + X = 1075
where X represents the parts you produce before the shift ends
Transpose 250 to the other side by subtracting each side by 250
Thus, it goes like this
X = 1075 - 250
X = 825

You produced 825 parts in the middle of the shift.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The probability that both of Eduardo’s partners for the group project will be girls is

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A hat contains slips of paper with the names of the 26 other students in Eduardo’s class on them, 10 of whom are boys. To determine his partners for the group project, Eduardo has to pull two names out of the hat without replacing them.

To find : What is the probability that both of Eduardo’s partners for the group project will be girls?

Solution :

Total number of students = 26

Number of boys = 10

Number of girls = 26-10=16

Eduardo has to pull two names out of the hat without replacing them.

For the first hat,

Favorable outcome of getting girl = 16

Total number of outcome = 26

For the second hat, without replacement

Favorable outcome of getting another girl = 15

Total number of outcome = 25

The probability that both of Eduardo’s partners for the group project will be girls is

Which piece of additional information can be used to prove △CEA ~ △CDB?

8_murik_8 [283]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

∠BDC and ∠AED are right angles

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Because ∠C ≅ ∠C, the additional bit of information above can be used to show AA similarity.

____

None of the other offered choices says anything about <em>both</em> triangles. In order to show similarity, you need information about corresponding parts of the <em>two</em> triangles. Information about one triangle alone is not sufficient.
