Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 inches in 1 feet, so

5 feet = 5 * 12 = 60 inch

6 feet = 6 * 12 = 72 inch

So, we can say most adult humans are between 60 to 72 inches tall

The model is 7 inches tall. So, from the answer choices, 7 * 10 = 70 [the number that is in between 60 to 72]. Thus we can take the model to be 1/10th of the original.

So the scale factor is 1/10, or option B

katelyn bought 5.68 pounds of peaches. the peaches were on sale for 1.49 a pound. how much did lately spend on peaches
Leya [2.2K]
So Katelyn bought 5.68 pounds of peaches. And one pound of peaches cost $1.49. So that would mean that we would have to multiply the pounds of peaches she bought, with how much each pound costs. 5.68 × 1.49 = ?

Once you multiply these two decimals, you would get 8.4632. So she spent $8.4632 on 5.68 pounds of peaches. You would multiply the two decimals to find how much she spent in all.

Answer:

The minimum value of f(x) is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

  • To find the minimum value of the function f(x), you should find the value of x which has the minimum value of y, so we will use the differentiation to find it
  • Differentiate f(x) with respect to x and equate it by 0 to find x, then substitute the value of x in f(x) to find the minimum value of f(x)

∵ f(x) = 2x² - 4x + 4

→ Find f'(x)

∵ f'(x) = 2(2)x^{2-1} - 4(1)x^{1-1} + 0

∴ f'(x) = 4x - 4

→ Equate f'(x) by 0

∵ f'(x) = 0

∴ 4x - 4 = 0

→ Add 4 to both sides

∵ 4x - 4 + 4 = 0 + 4

∴ 4x = 4

→ Divide both sides by 4

∴ x = 1

→ The minimum value is f(1)

∵ f(1) = 2(1)² - 4(1) + 4

∴ f(1) = 2 - 4 + 4

∴ f(1) = 2

∴ The minimum value of f(x) is 2

Answer:

x + 2(2x-4) = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we want to select which is the correct answer if we substitute for the value of y in the second equation, using the first.

In the first, we have;

y = 2x -4

Now, let’s input this value of y into the second equation.

By direct substitution, what we have is the following;

x + 2y = 10

—-> x + 2(2x -4) = 10
