Answer:

35 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can set up a proportion.

Let's name the weight of the wheat flour "x."

3/5=21/x

Cross multiply to solve.

3*x=5*21

3x=105

x=35

The weight of the wheat flour is 35 pounds.

If function g(x) = x2 + 2 is a transformation of the quadratic parent function, f(x) = x2, where is the y-intercept of function
Georgia [21]

We have been given that function g(x)=x^2+2 is a transformation of the quadratic parent function f(x)=x^2. We are asked to find the y-intercept of function g.

We know that the function f(x)=x^2 is an upward opening parabola with vertex at point (0,0).

We know that vertex form of a parabola is in form y=a(x-h)^2+k, where point (h,k) represents vertex of parabola.

We can rewrite g(x) as:

g(x)=(x-0)^2+2

The vertex of the function g(x) is at point (0,2).

We know that the vertex of a function is the point, when x is equal to 0. Therefore, the y-intercept of the g is at (0,2).
