Answer:

<em>The fraction of the flour Mrs. Mannng will use for her chocolate chip cookies is 4/9</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Fraction of Portion</u>

Suppose we have a number n and another number m such as m>n. The portion or fraction of size n of m is given by the quotient n/m.

For example, 3 pieces of cake out of a total of 6 make them a fraction of 3/6 = 1/2 of the whole cake, i.e. half of the total available.

Mrs. Manning needs 1/3 cup of flour to make cookies for the bake sale. She actually has 3/4 cups of flour. Calculate the fraction of needed against the available flour:

\displaystyle \frac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{3}{4}}

The division can be easier performed by multiplying by the reciprocal of the denominator:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}\cdot \frac{4}{3}=\frac{1*4}{3*3}

\displaystyle =\frac{4}{9}

The fraction of the flour Mrs. Mannng will use for her chocolate chip cookies is 4/9

What is the y-intercept, axis of symmetry and vertex of the following function.
tamaranim1 [39]
To find the y intercept you must substitute 0 into x.

F(x) = (-3x0) - (6x0) - 5
F(x) = -5

To find the axis of symmetry and vertex we use the formula -b/2a to find the x coordinate

x = 6/(-3x2)
x = 6/-6
x = -1

Now we need to find the y coordinate so we sub -1 into x.

F(x) = (-3x-1) - (6x-1) - 5
F(x) = 3 + 6 - 5
F(x) = 4

The axis of symmetry and vertex are (-1,4) and the y coordinate is -5. Hope this helps.
