Answer:

7.875 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the beakers are the same size, and each beaker takes in x pounds.

Then for seven beakers we have;

x × 7 = 7x pounds

For the eight beaker;

1/9 ×  x= 1/9x pounds

Therefore;

7x + 1/9x = 56 pounds

63x + x = 56 ×9

64 x = 504

     x = 504/64

         = 7.875 pounds

Therefore; one full beaker takes in 7.875 pounds when full

Let f(x)=x-2 and g(x)=x2-7x-9 fins f(g(-1))
vlabodo [156]
The answer is -3 because you’re plugging g(x) into f(x). For every x there is in f(x), plug in g(x)’s equation. After you get another equation (simplified), which is x^2 -7x -11, plug -1 for every x and condense.
