Answers: Weight - 7.62 pounds, Cost - $2.50

When we convert 3,456 grams into pounds, we get 7.62 pounds (rounded to the nearest hundredth). We can subtract the first pound off since we know that will cost $0.75 (7.62 - 1 = 6.62 pounds). Now we must round 6.62 up to 7 pounds and multiply that by the price for every pound or part of a pound (7 x 0.25 = $1.75). Now you combine both the cost of the initial pound and the cost of every pound or part of a pound over the first to get your final cost. ($0.75 + $1.75 = $2.50)

Which of the following exponential functions represents the graph below?
mario62 [17]

Answer:

the graph corresponds to function "D"  f(x)=3\,(\frac{1}{5} )^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the graph shown corresponds to an exponential "decay" (the function decreases as we move from left to right), the base of the exponent has to be a number smaller than 1 (one). So we examine the only two options that give such (options C and D which have fractions as the base - 1/3 and 1/5 respectively)

From there, we analyze which of the two functions satisfies the crossing of the y-axis at (0,3) which is clearly shown in the graph:

We study both:

function C at x = 0 gives:

f(x)= 5\,(\frac{1}{3})^x\\f(0)=5\,(\frac{1}{3})^0 \\f(0)=5\,(1)\\f(0)=5

while function D at x = 0 gives:

f(x)= 3\,(\frac{1}{5})^x\\f(0)=3\,(\frac{1}{5})^0 \\f(0)=3\,(1)\\f(0)=3

Therefore, the graph corresponds to function "D"

This scatter plot shows the number of baskets made and the time in minutes that has passed.
irina1246 [14]

Scatter plots are used to relate variables using scattered dots.

The best prediction for the number of baskets made in 16 minutes is (c) 14 baskets

From the graph, we can see that the number of baskets made in 14 minutes is 12.

Also, from the graph; as the minutes increases, the number of baskets either remain the same or increases.

This means that, for 16 minutes, the number of baskets would either be 12 (same as 14 minutes) or greater.

The closest to 12 baskets in the option is 14.

Hence, the best prediction for the number of baskets made in 16 minutes is (c) 14 baskets
