Answer: 11,544 pieces of candy are made per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Gallons of corn syrup used: 8 </em>
  • <em>Pieces of candy produced: 1,776 </em>
  • <em>gallons of corn syrup per hour: 52 </em>

If we apply proportions:

8 /1,776 = 52/x

Where x is the pieces of candy made per hour.

Solving

x = 52x1, 776 /8

x = 11,544

11,544 pieces of candy are made per hour.

Hi! So to find this answer, you could do it two ways. Firstly, you could spend a major amount of time doing this in your head. Or second, you could use a calculator and do 30/5. This would give you 6. So 6 minutes on each chore.

Can someone help me I don’t know how to do this it’s hard and confusing me

Answer:

  • increasing on 0 < x < 2
  • f(2) = 4
  • decreasing on 2 < x < 5

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to know that an even function is symmetrical about the y-axis. The graph to the right of the y-axis is the mirror image of the graph to the left. With that in mind, the questions are easily answered.

It might help to draw the function graph, as we did in the attached. Then it is more straightforward to see what is happening in each of the intervals.

The function is increasing in the interval 0 < x < 2.

The function value at x=2 is 4: f(2) = 4.

The function is decreasing in the interval 2 < x < 5.
