Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total peanuts = 5/6pounds

They ate = 3/4 of the peanut

= 3/4 × 5/6 = 5/8pounds

They eat 5/8 pounds

Amount left = 5/6 - 5/8

= (20 - 15)/24

= 5/24pounds

Jesus had 5/24 pounds of peanuts left

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

Number of bags of mulch = 7.5 bags

Number of square yards = 12

So by considering above information, we could find the number of bags for each square yard is

= $\frac{Number\ of\ bags\ of\ mulch }{Number\ of\ square\ yards }$

= $\frac{7.5}{12}$

= 0.625

The 0.625 is equal to $\frac{5}{8}$ bag

Therefore, she need to use $\frac{5}{8}$ bag for each square yard

Basically we use the fraction so that each square yard for use of bag could be find out

What are the points for f(x)=3^(x-1)-2

Savatey [412]

Answer: (0, -1 $\frac{2}{3}$ ), (1, -1), (2, 1)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Set the exponent equal to zero - <em>that is your anchor point</em>.

Then choose an x-value less than and greater than the anchor point.

$\left\begin{array}{c|c|l}&\underline{\quad x\quad }&\underline{\qquad \qquad f(x)\qquad \qquad \qquad \quad }\\\text{less than anchor}&0&3^{0-1}-2=3^{-1}-2=\frac{1}{3}-2 = -1\frac{2}{3}}\\\\anchor\ point&1&3^{1-1}-2=3^{0}-2=1-2 = -1}\\\\\text{greater than anchor}&2&3^{2-1}-2=3^{1}-2=3-2 = 1}\end{array}\right$
