Answer:

9 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Pounds of bananas=2 7/8

=23/8

Pounds of apple=3 1/2

=7/2

2 bags of oranges=2 3/4 each

11/4 each.

Total pounds of oranges=2(11/4)

=22/4

Total pounds of fruits Marisol bought from the market=pounds of bananas+pounds of apples+pounds of oranges

=28/8+7/2+22/8

Find the L.C.M and add them

The L.C.M=8

Total pounds of fruits =28+28+22/8

=78/8

=9 6/8

Equivalent to

9 3/4

Does the function f(x) = 2x^2− 6x + 9 have a minimum or a maximum? Identify its value.
exis [7]

Answer:

minimum value of function is   \frac{45}{8} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function represents a parabola.

Now, here coefficient of x^{2} is positive , so the parabola will be facing upwards and thus the function will be having a minimum.

Now, as we know that minimum value of a parabolic function occurs at

x = \frac{-b}{4a} .

Where , b represents the coefficient of x and a represents the coefficient of x^{2} .

here, a = 2 , b = -6

Thus \frac{-b}{4a} = \frac{6}{8}

                                            =  \frac{3}{4}

So, at x =  \frac{3}{4}  minimum value will occur and which equals

y = 2×\frac{9}{16} - \frac{18}{4} + 9 =  \frac{45}{8} .

Thus , minimum value of function is   \frac{45}{8} .

After the data was recorded, Leah realized that she left out a student who handed out 42 flyers. How would the mean number of fl
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Outlier An extreme value in a set of data which is much higher or lower than the other numbers. ... Outliers affect the mean value of the data but have little effect on the median or mode of a given set of data. Your question asks how number 42 would affect the mean, that depends on two things, is the 42 higher or lower than the mean before 42 is added to the data? If the 42 is higher, the mean would increase, if the 42 is lower, the mean would decrease. Hope that helps.

It took Jimena 89 minutes to run a 15-kilometer race last weekend. If you know that 1 kilometer equals 0.621 mile, how many minu
Novosadov [1.4K]
The answer is <span>9.55 minutes
</span>
1. Turn 15 km into miles:
    1 km = 0.621 mile
    15 km = 15 * 0.621 mile = 9.315 miles
So, she ran 9.315 miles for 89 minutes

2. Calculate <span>how many minutes it took Jimena to run 1 mile during the race:
    S</span>he ran 9.315 miles for 89 minutes.
    She ran 1 mile for x minutes.
    9.315 mi : 89 min = 1 mi : x
    x = 89 min * 1 mi / 9.315 mi
    x = 9.55 min
