\bf \stackrel{\textit{cubic feet of air}}{\stackrel{\textit{dependent}}{a(t)}}\qquad \stackrel{\stackrel{\textit{time in minutes}}{independent}}{t}~\hspace{7em}a(t)=6000t


the "t" variable is independent, namely it can change values "freely", and a(t) is dependent, because it depends on those values on "t" to get its own value.

if we make a table of values for minutes, we know the balloon is inflating at 6000 ft³ each passing minute.

1 minute......................... 6000(1) ft³

2 minutes......................6000(2) ft³

3 minutes......................6000(3) ft³

4 minutes......................6000(4) ft³

t minutes......................6000(t) ft³


before getting in the domain and range, let's find out how much air after 6 minutes.

a(6) = 6000(6)

a(6) = 36000 ft³.


now, what domain, namely values for "t" make sense?

well, we know the balloon can only hold up to 90000 ft³, and on every passing minute is filling up by 6000 ft³, after how many minutes will it be filled up?

90000/6000 = 15, after 15 minutes.

so at 0 minutes, t = 0, the balloon is empty, and 15 minutes later, t = 15, the balloon is filled up, [ 0 , 15 ].


what values for the range, namely a(t), makes sense?

well, we know when the balloon is empty is holding 0 ft³, and when is full it has 90000 ft³, [0 , 90000].

sarah used 3/4 pound of blueberries to make 1/2 cup of jam. how many pounds of blueberries would she need to make a cup of jam?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: She needed 1\frac{1}{2}\text{ pounds of blueberries} to make a cup of jam .

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Sarah used \frac{3}{4} pound of blueberries to make \frac{1}{2} cup of jam.

As we need to find the number of pounds of blueberries she would need to make a cup of jam.

So, we will use "Unitary Method":

\text{For }\frac{1}{2}\text{ cup of jam},\\\\\text{ she need }\frac{3}{4}\text{ pound of blueberries }\\\\\text{ For 1 cup of jam}.\\\\\text{She need }=\frac{3}{4}\times 2=\frac{3}{2}=1\frac{1}{2}\text{ pounds of blueberries }

Hence, She needed 1\frac{1}{2}\text{ pounds of blueberries} to make a cup of jam .

Can someone please help me answer this question. I dont know what to do.
pogonyaev

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

hi , you can see here we have a rectangle without a triangle :

area rectangle - area  triangle = area of the shape

Area of the triangle= L x l

=4 x 2

=8

Area of the triangle = \frac{b X h}{2}

=\frac{2 X 1}{2}

=1

So we do :   8 - 1 = 7

I hope it is gonna be helpful,

have a nice day.
