Answer:

2.25 or 2 1/4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the weight of the food and water. To do this, find the difference between his backpack before the food and water and after. His backpack without the food is 7 3/4 pounds, and his backpack after is 11 3/4 pounds.

11 3/4 - 7 3/4

4

The food and water together weigh 4 pounds. We know the water weighs 1 3/4 pounds, so we can subtract it from the total to find what the food weighs.

4- 1 3/4

2 1/4

As a decimal: 2.25

The food weighs 2 1/4 or 2.25 pounds

Write a function describing the relationship of the given variables.
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

The function is A = 10√r

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the meaning of direct variation

- The direct variation is a mathematical relationship between two

  variables that can be expressed by an equation in which one

  variable is equal to a constant times the other

- If Y is in direct variation with x (y ∝ x), then y = kx, where k is the

 constant of variation

* Now lets solve the problem

# A is varies directly with the square root of r

- Change the statement above to a mathematical relation

∴ A ∝ √r

- Chang the relation to a function by using a constant k

∴ A = k√r

- To find the value of the constant of variation k substitute A and r

 by the given values

∵ r = 16 when A = 40

∵ A = k√r

∴ 40 = k√16 ⇒ simplify the square root

∴ 40 = 4k ⇒ divide both sides by 4 to find the value of k

∴ 10 = k

- The value of the constant of variation is 10

∴ The function describing the relationship of A and r is A = 10√r

Jerome is a pharmacy technician that filled a prescription that use 1/4 bottle of ibuprofen. How many pills did jerome use for t
Neporo4naja [7]

It is clearly mentioned in the question that each bottle of ibuprofen has 1000 pills.

Now, 1/4 bottle of ibuprofen is used to make the prescription.

So, if one bottle of ibuprofen has 1000 pills and 1/4 1/4 bottle of ibuprofen is used to make the prescription, then Jerome obviously used \frac{1000}{4}=250 pills of ibuprofen to make the prescription.

This can be further explained as follows:

1 bottle=1000 pills

\therefore \frac{1}{4} bottle=\frac{1000}{4}=250 pills.
