In converting 750 ounces to pounds, what unit (omit the number) would you

Mathematics
1 answer:
lesantik [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

I would use the pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reasoning behind using the pound is, if you are using fractions per say to get a side by side ration when you are doing 16 ounces to 1 pound you would want to have a unit rate.

750 ounces          16 ounces

-------------------       -----------------    

  x pounds              1 pound

Do you see how much easier it is to convert from ounces to pounds when you have a unit rate? Now once you see how many times you had to multiply 16 to get 750 you can easily multiply that number by 1!

Question 10 Express 40 as a product of prime factors​
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

2 x 2 x 2 x 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The first few prime numbers:  {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19}

One way to start is to divide by the first prime until you can't do that any more, then try the next prime and so on until all the numbers in your list are prime.

40 = 2(20)  divide 20 by 2 again

40 = 2(2)(10)  divide 10 by 2 again

40 = 2(2)(2)(5) stop--all factors are prime.

What is the vertex of a parabola defined by the equation <br> x = 5y2?
QveST [7]

Find the critical points of f(y):Compute the critical points of -5 y^2
To find all critical points, first compute f'(y):( d)/( dy)(-5 y^2) = -10 y:f'(y) = -10 y
Solving -10 y = 0 yields y = 0:y = 0
f'(y) exists everywhere:-10 y exists everywhere
The only critical point of -5 y^2 is at y = 0:y = 0
The domain of -5 y^2 is R:The endpoints of R are y = -∞ and ∞
Evaluate -5 y^2 at y = -∞, 0 and ∞:The open endpoints of the domain are marked in grayy | f(y)-∞ | -∞0 | 0∞ | -∞
The largest value corresponds to a global maximum, and the smallest value corresponds to a global minimum:The open endpoints of the domain are marked in grayy | f(y) | extrema type-∞ | -∞ | global min0 | 0 | global max∞ | -∞ | global min
Remove the points y = -∞ and ∞ from the tableThese cannot be global extrema, as the value of f(y) here is never achieved:y | f(y) | extrema type0 | 0 | global max
f(y) = -5 y^2 has one global maximum:Answer: f(y) has a global maximum at y = 0

a father is twice as old as his son. 20 yrs ago the father was four times as old as his son. find their present ages
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

son's present age = 30

father's present age=60

Step-by-step explanation:

his son's present age = x years

his father's present age = 2x years

before 20 years his son's age=(x-20) years

before 20 years father's age=(2x-20) years4(x-20)=(2x-20)

4x-80=2x-20

4x-2x=80-20

2x=60

x=30

Habiendose organizado un bingo se ha recaudado $1900. Por la entrada de hombres $15 y mujeres $10 y se ha reportado una asistenc
aev [14]

Answer:

The number of men was 80

The number of women was 70

Step-by-step explanation:

The question in English is

Having organized a bingo has raised $1900. For the entrance of men $15 and women $10 and an attendance of 150 people has been reported. Determine the number of men and the number of women who participated in the bingo.

Let

x----> the number of men

y----> the number of women

we know that

x+y=150

x=150-y -----> equation A

15x+10y=1,900 -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y

15(150-y)+10y=1,900

2,250-15y+10y=1,900

15y-10y=2,250-1,900

5y=350

y=70

Find the value of x

x=150-70=80

therefore

The number of men was 80

The number of women was 70
