You can set up a proportion. The quick answer is 600

7.5/900 = 2.5/x
x = 900 * 2.5 / 7.5
x = 900 * (1/3)
x = 300

But that is not the answer. The question is what does she save.
900 - 300 = 600

You could get the answer more directly. She does not eat 5 oz cake, so solve for that.

5/x = 7.5/900 Cross multiply
5 * 900 = 7.5 x
4500 = 7.5x Divide by 7.5
4500/7.5 = x 
600 = x

Use the definition of the derviative to compute the derivative of f(x)= 1- 7x^2 at the specific point x=2.
GaryK [48]

Answer:

f'(x) = -28 \ at  \ x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f'(2) =  \lim_{h \to 0}\frac{f(2+h)) -f(2)}{h} \\\\f(2+h) = 1 - 7(2+h)^2 = 1 - 7(4 +h^2 +4h) = 1 - 28 - 7h^2 - 28h = - 7h^2 -28h - 27\\\\f(2) = 1 - 7(2^2) = 1 - 28 = -27\\\\f(2+h) - f(2) = -7h^2 - 28h - 27 - (-27) = -7h^2 -28h -27 + 27 = -7h^2 -28h\\\\f'(2) =   \lim_{h \to 0}\frac{-7h^2 - 28h}{h} \\\\

       = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{h(-7h -28)}{h}\\\\= \lim_{h \to 0} (-7h -28)}\\\\= -7 (0) - 28\\\\= -28

-3r + 7 - 3r - 12 in simplest form
Akimi4 [234]
Since the co-efficient or "r" is "-3" and "-3", it will simplify to "-6" as -3-3= -6.
then the two constant terms with are "7" and "-12" will simplify to "-5" as 7-12=-5. therefore, the simplest form is -6r -5

hope it helped!

Use the following function rule to find f(2).<br> f(x) = 10x<br> f(2)=
zalisa [80]
It would be 20, since you’re replacing the x value with 2. 10(2) is 20.

&lt;ABD has a measure of 36 degrees. a)find the compliment of the angle b)find the supplement of that angle
victus00 [196]
A) The complement of an angle is the other angle that can be added to the original to add up to 90 degrees. The complement of <ABD would be 90-36=54

b) The supplement of an angle is whatever number can be added to the original to add up to 180 degrees. The supplement of <ABD would be 180-36=144
