Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

-1/16

Discussion:

Rewrite ((1/4 + 1/x)/(4+x)) as

(1/4 + 1/x) * (1/(4+x)) = => put num. over common denom,

( (x+4)/4x) * (1/(4+x)) = => cancel (x+4) from num. and denom.

(1/4x)

So as x ->-4, (1/4x) approaches ( 1/ ( 4 * (-4) ) ) = -1/16

Thank you,

MrB

What is the percent increase modeled in the function f(x)=20(1.5)^x

blagie [28]

The increase is D: 50% because the 1 in the parentheses stands for the 20 that was already there, with the .5 being the amount that’s actually being increased. 0.5 translates to 50%, so the answer is D.

Seven pizzas are shared equally between three friends. What fraction of pizza does each friend get? Write your answer as a mixed

vredina [299]

Seven pizzas: 7 pizzas

Shared between 3 friends: 7 pizzas / 3 friends

Simplify the fraction:

7 / 3

(3 goes into 7 twice, 7 - 6 = 1)

2 1/3

The fraction of pizza that each friend gets is 2 1/3.

Hope this helps!! :)
