Answer:

x= 1 1/4 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a proportion to solve this problem. Put the cost over the number of ounces.

$4 $1

---------- = ---------------

5 ounces x ounces

Using cross products

4x =1*5

Divide each side by 4

x =5/4

x= 1 1/4 ounces

If you do 5 divide by 4 then you can find what 1$ would be worth so ie.
5 divide by 4 is 1.25 which means that for 1$ you could buy 1.25 ounces

frozen [14]

Answer:

62.5%

Percentage of adults = number of adults/ total number of people at the concert x 100%

That’s

6250/10000 x 100%

0.625 x 100%

62.5%

62.5% of the people at the concert are adults

EXPLANATION

From the graph,

f(1)=3 and f(4)=0.

The average rate of change from x=1 to x=4 of this function is,

$= \frac{f(4) - f(1)}{4 - 1}$

Substitute the functional values

$= \frac{0 - 3}{3}$

Simplify

$= \frac{-3}{3} = -1$

Katena32 [7]

Given :-

y varies directly as x, and y=14 when x=4.

To Find :-

the value of y when x=9 .

Solution :-

According to Question ,

y = kx ( k is constant )

When y = 14 and x = 4 ,

14 = k(4)
k = 14/4
k = 7/2

When x = 9 ,

y = 7/2*9
y = 63/2
y = 31.5

When we slice a three-dimensional object, we expose new faces that are two dimensional. The two-dimensional face is called _____

zlopas [31]

Answer:

Cross section

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross section refers to the new two dimensional face exposed when we slice through a three dimensional objects.

It can also be the surface or shape exposed by making a straight cut through something, especially at right angles to an axis.

Cross section is the plane surface(two-dimensional objects) formed by cutting across a solid shape (three-dimensional shape) especially perpendicular to its longest axis.
