Multiply 0.25 by 2 and you get 0.50
It’s 3.8 inches I’m pretty sure
Answer: Mike's arm span is 7.165 cm longer than the George's one.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that the association between height and arm span is modeled by the equation
y = 4.5 + 0.977*x
where y is height and x is arm span.
Mike is 172 cm tall, so his arm span is:
172cm = 4.5 + 0.977*x
x = (172 - 4.5)/0.977 = 171.443 cm
and George is 165 cm tall, so his arm span is:
x = (165 - 4.5)/0.977 = 164.278 cm
Then the difference between their arm span is:
171.443cm - 164.278cm = 7.165 cm
So Mike's arm span is 7.165 cm longer than the George's one.

Answer:
(a) none of the above
Step-by-step explanation:
The largest exponent in the function shown is 2. That makes it a 2nd-degree function, also called a quadratic function. The graph of such a function is a parabola -- a U-shaped curve.
The coefficient of the highest-degree term is the "leading coefficient." In this case, that is the coefficient of the x² term, which is 1. When the leading coefficient of an even-degree function is positive, the U curve has its open end at the top of the graph. We say it "opens upward." (When the leading coefficient is negative, the curve opens downward.)
This means the bottom of the U is the minimum value the function has. For a quadratic in the form ax²+bx+c, the horizontal location of the minimum on the graph is at x=-b/(2a). This extreme point on the curve is called the "vertex."
This function has a=1, b=1, and c=3. The minimum of the function is where ...
x = -b/(2·a) = -1/(2·1) = -1/2
This value is not listed among the answer choices, so the correct choice for this function is ...
none of the above
__
The attached graph of the function confirms that the minimum is located at x=-1/2

<em>Additional comment</em>
When you're studying quadratic functions, there are few formulas that you might want to keep handy. The formula for the location of the vertex is one of them.
Number of ounces left is 1120
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Find number of ounces left after each day.
Given total soup prepared each day = 15 gallons
Amount served each day = 1/4 of 15 = 15/4 gallons
Amount left after each day = 15 - 15/4 = 60 - 15/4 = 35/4 gallons
- Step 2: Convert gallons into ounces. 1 gallon = 128 ounces
35/4 gallons = 35/4 × 128 = 1120 ounces
