a 96 ounce container of orange juice costs $4.80. at what price should a 128 ounce container be sold in order for the unit rate

for both containers to be the same? explain your reasoning.

4.8 / 96 = x / 120
96x = 576
x = 576/96
x = 6

check :
unit rate for 96 oz container at 4.80 = 4.80/96 = 0.05 per oz
unit rate for 120 oz container at 6.00 = 6.00/120 = 0.05 per oz

Basically ur looking for an equivalent fraction (and that is what proportions are...this will reduce to the same unit rate. So ur answer is $ 6.00

Find the area of the following figure:

stellarik [79]

Answer:

12m

Step-by-step explanation:

You can break this shape down into a square and a trapezoid. Frist you can find the area of the square by multiplying 2 by 5 to get 10. Then you would find the area of a trapezoid by doing Area = 1/2height(base1+base2). We can find the height by subtracting 5 from 9. (We do this because we know the side of the square is 5m) Therefore the height would be 4m. We know the bases are 2 and 4. From there you can plug those numbers in to the formula. Area=1/2 * 4 (2 + 4)

Area= 1/2 * 4 (6)

Area = 2(6)

Area = 12m

If (-1, y) lies on the graph of y=2^2x then y=

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

y is 1/4 when x is -1 if I did interpret your equation right. Please see that I did.

I believe the equation to be $y=2^{2x}$ . If you meant $y=2^2x$ , please let me know.

Thanks kindly.

Step-by-step explanation:

If (-1,y) lies on the graph of $y=2^{2x}$ , then by substitution we have:

$y=2^{2\cdot -1}$ .

We just need to simplify to determine y:

$y=2^{2 \cdot -1}$

Multiply the 2 and -1:

$y=2^{-2}$

Use reciprocal rule for exponents to get rid of the negative:

$y=\frac{1}{2^2}$

$2^2$ just means $2(2)$ :

$y=\frac{1}{2(2)}$

$y=\frac{1}{4}$ .

What is the simplified form of 12x/900x²y4z6?

zalisa [80]

Answer:

$360xy^2|xz^3|$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

$12x \sqrt{900x^2y^4z^6}$

$\textsf{Apply radical rule} \quad \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\sqrt{b}:$

$\implies 12x \sqrt{900}\sqrt{x^2}\sqrt{y^4}\sqrt{z^6}$

Replace 900 with 30² :

$\implies 12x \sqrt{30^2}\sqrt{x^2}\sqrt{y^4}\sqrt{z^6}$

$\textsf{Apply radical rule} \quad \sqrt{a^2}=a, \quad a \geq 0:$

$\implies 12x \cdot 30|x|\sqrt{y^4}\sqrt{z^6}$

$\implies 360x|x|\sqrt{y^4}\sqrt{z^6}$

(We need to use the absolute value of √x² since the x term was originally to the power of 2, which means the value of x² is always positive since the exponent is even).

$\textsf{Apply exponent rule} \quad \sqrt{a^m}=a^{\frac{m}{2}}:$

$\implies 360x|x|\cdot y^{\frac{4}{2}}\cdot z^{\frac{6}{2}}$

Simplify:

$\implies 360xy^2|xz^3|$

(We need to use the absolute value of z³ since the z term was original to the power of 6, which means the value of z⁶ is always positive since the exponent is even).

Write an equation in standard form of a line that passes through (4, 2) and is parallel to y = - 3/4 * x - 5 .

Bingel [31]

Answer:

y=2x+y-int

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is parallet to the defined by the given equation the slope of the unknown line is m=2.

Use this value of slope to calculate the y intercept. 2 = ( 2 - y-int)/4 - 0)

THus, your equation is y = 2x + y-int
