Each kitten weighs 11 ounces.

<h3>Further Explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

  • Liza's cat had 6 kitten
  • Total weight of 6 kitten is 4 pounds 2 ounces

<u>Question: </u>

How many ounces does each kitten weigh?

It already mentioned that the six kitten weighed 4 pounds 2 ounces, but we can not simply divide the total weight with the number of kittens. Why? Because the total weight is in different unit, which is pound and ounces. First we need to convert the pound into ounce. Also the question is in ounce unit.

First step, we are going to convert the pound to ounce

We already know that:

\boxed {1 pound = 16 ounces }

so we can get the conversion factor as follow

\boxed { \frac{1 pound}{16 ounces} }  or \boxed {\frac{16 ounces}{1 pound} }

we are going to choose the second one because then we can cancel out the pound unit:

\boxed { = 4 pounds \times\frac{16 ounces}{1 pound} }\\\boxed {= 64 ounces }

we've got that 4 pounds = 64 ounces

4 pounds 2 ounces = 64 ounces +2 ounces

                                 = 66 ounces

The next step would be divide the total weight(in ounces) with the number of kitten, which are 6 kittens

\boxed {=\frac{66}{6} }\\ \boxed {= 11 ounces }

so each kitten weighs 11 ounces.

eduard
\bf \cfrac{\quad \stackrel{gallons}{\frac{3}{4}}\quad }{\stackrel{minutes}{\frac{2}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{3}{4}\cdot \cfrac{3}{2}\implies \cfrac{9}{8}~g/m&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{\quad \stackrel{gallons}{\frac{3}{8}}\quad }{\stackrel{minutes}{\frac{1}{2}}}\implies \cfrac{3}{8}\cdot \cfrac{2}{1}\implies \cfrac{3}{4}~g/m\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf \cfrac{3}{4}\cdot \cfrac{2}{2}\implies \cfrac{6}{8}\quad \textit{clearly then }\cfrac{9}{8}\textit{ is larger than }\cfrac{6}{8}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{\stackrel{tank's~volume}{gallons}}{y}=\cfrac{9}{8}\stackrel{minutes}{x}

Write a quadratic function in standard form with zeros 1 and -10
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

f(x)=x^2+9x-10

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Standard Form of Quadratic Function</u>

The standard form of a quadratic function is:

f(x)=ax^2+bx+c

where a,b, and c are constants.

The factored form of a quadratic equation is:

f(x)=a(x-\alpha)(x-\beta)

Where \alpha and \beta are the roots or zeros of f, and a is constant.

We know the zeros of the function are 1 and -10. The function is:

f(x)=a(x-1)(x-(-10))

f(x)=a(x-1)(x+10)

Operating:

f(x)=a(x^2+10x-x-10)

Joining like terms:

f(x)=a(x^2+9x-10)

Since we are not given any more restrictions, we can choose the value of a=1, thus. the required function is:

\boxed{f(x)=x^2+9x-10}
