Answer:

Each person would receive maximum 0.8 pounds of potato.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Amount of Potato = 16 pounds.

Number of people attend reunion = 20

We need to find the largest amount of potato each person would receive.

Solution:

largest amount of potato each person would receive can be calculated by dividing Total Amount of Potato with Number of people attend the reunion.

framing in equation form we get;

largest amount of potato each person would receive = \frac{16}{20} =0.8\ pounds

Hence Each person would receive maximum 0.8 pounds of potato.

The function below is written in vertex form or intercept form. Rewrite them in standard form and show your work.
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The standard form as y=5x^2+30x+41

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A function which is written in vertex form or intercept form.

We have to re-write it  in standard form that in terms of

Given y = 5(x+3)^2-4

Squaring  using (a+b)^2=a^2+b^2+2ab , we get,  

y=5(x^2+9+6x)-4

Multiply 5 inside , we get,

y=5x^2+45+30x-4

Solving further , we get,

y=5x^2+30x+41

Thus , we have obtained the standard form as y=5x^2+30x+41

A right cone has a radius of 13 cm and a slant height of 20 cm. Find its surface area.
devlian [24]

Answer:

A=1347.7\ cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Radius of a cone, r = 13 cm

Slant height of the cone, l = 20 cm

We need to find the surface area of the cone. The formula for the surface area of the cone is given by :

A=\pi rl +\pi r^2

Put all the values,

A=\pi r(l + r)\\\\A=\pi \times 13(20 + 13)\\\\A=1347.7\ cm^2

So, the surface area of the cone is 1347.7\ cm^2.
