There are 33/20 or 1.65 pounds left.

Given:
4 3/4 pounds of clay
1 1/10 pounds of clay for a cup
2   pounds of clay for a jar

Convert the mixed fraction into fractions.
4 3/4 = (4*4+3)/4 = 19/4
1 1/10 = (1*10+1)/10 = 11/10
2 = 2/1

19/4 - 11/10 = (19/4 *5/5) - (11/10 * 2/2) = 95/20 - 22/20
= (95-22)/20 = 73/20 or 3.65 pounds after making a cup  

73/20 - 2/1 = 73/20 - (2/1 * 20/20) = 73/20 - 40/20 = 73 - 40 / 20 = 33/20  OR 1.65 pounds left after making a jar.


We can also convert the fractions into decimal numbers.
19/4   = 4.75
11/10 = 1.10
2/1     = 2.00

4.75 - 1.1 - 2 = 1.65 pounds left.

Maths help please!!!!!! PART B ONLY
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

19.37.

Step-by-step explanation:

Integrating the  function we get

x^4/4 - 5x^3/3 + x^2 + 8x

Area under the curve from x = -1 to x = 0

= (-1)^4/4 - 5(-1)^3/3 + (-1)^2 - 8

= 5.083

In a similar way we calculate area from 0 to 2

this = 10.667.

Total = 15.75.

Now we subtract 12.13 to get the area  from x = 2 to x =p.

= 15.75 - 12.13 = 3.62

So total shaded area = 15.75 + 3.62

= 19.37.
