Your answer would be $1.52.

The reason why this is your answer because the fact that $0.95 is already a whole, you want want to find what 60% of it is.

60% of $0.95 is $0.57.

So when you add $0.95 (1 whole apple) and $0.57 (60% or .60 of an apple), you would get $1.52, and that would be your answer.

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} \$&lbs\\ \cline{1-2} 0.95&1\\ x&1.6 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{0.95}{x}=\cfrac{1}{1.6}\implies 1.52=x$

Help me please. I dont understand this question.

Answer:

y = 100°

Step-by-step explanation:

I can't see the full question, but I'm guessing you need to find the measure of angle y.

The total angle sum of a polygon can be calculated with the formula

T = 180°(n - 2) where T is the total angle measure, and n i the number of sides.

For our shape, there are 4 sides, so n = 4. Plug that in and simplify...

T = 180°(4 - 2)

T = 180°(2)

T = 360°

We are given 3 of the angles, so angle y is

y = 360 - 107 - 104 - 49

y = 100°

Answer: B. a physical model.

The world has lots of different kinds of models. A mathematical model might be a ball travels according to the equation $y = v_0 t - \frac 1 2 gt^2$ . This isn't that. A computer model would be a program that somehow simulates a skeleton in the computer, this isn't that either. Our skeleton is an actual physical model just like a model airplane.

Consider the following. f(x) = x5 − x3 + 6, −1 ≤ x ≤ 1 (a) Use a graph to find the absolute maximum and minimum values of the fu

kykrilka [37]

ANSWER

See below

EXPLANATION

Part a)

The given function is

$f(x) = {x}^{5} - {x}^{3} + 6$

From the graph, we can observe that, the absolute maximum occurs at (-0.7746,6.1859) and the absolute minimum occurs at (0.7746,5.8141).

b) Using calculus, we find the first derivative of the given function.

$f'(x) = 5 {x}^{4} - 3 {x}^{2}$

At turning point f'(x)=0.

$5 {x}^{4} - 3 {x}^{2} = 0$

This implies that,

${x}^{2} (5 {x}^{2} - 3) = 0$

${x}^{2} = 0 \: or \: 5 {x}^{2} - 3 = 0$

$x = - \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} \: or \: x = 0 \: \: or \: x =\frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5}$

We plug this values into the original function to obtain the y-values of the turning points

$( - \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} , \frac{1}{125} ( 6 \sqrt{15} +750)) \:and \: (0, - 6) \: and\: ( \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} , \frac{1}{125} ( - 6 \sqrt{15} +750))$
