Total pounds of candy you received = Pounds of candy received from Grandmother + Pounds of candy received from Sister + Pounds of Candy received from Best Friend

Add them all up to find the total you received.

Total pounds of candy you received = 1/4 + 1/2 + 1/8
= 2/8 + 4/8 + 1/8 = 7/8 Pounds

When changing the denominator of a fraction, always make sure to change the numerator proportionately as well. For 1/4, since you wish to change the denominator to 8 (which is the largest denominator in the group), and since 8 is equal to 4 × 2, the numerator will also have to be multiplied by 2 (I.e. 1 × 2). This will give you 2/8.

Hope this helps! :)

Write an equation of a parabola in vertex form. Vertex (2,-3) and passes through (0,5)​
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of a parabola is given by  y = a(x - h)^2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex.

Given vertex at (2,-3), h = 2, k = -3

y = a(x - 2)^2 + (-3) = a(x - 2)^2 - 3

The parabola passes through (0,5) so

5 = a(0 - 2)^2 - 3

5 = 4a - 3

4a = 8

a = 2

The parabola equation in vertex form:

y = 2(x - 2)^2 - 3

% of 6,000 = 4,500<br> Please help
babymother [125]

Answer:

450

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution for What is 75 percent of 600:

75 percent * 600 =

(75:100)* 600 =

(75* 600):100 =

45000:100 = 450

Now we have: 75 percent of 600 = 450

Question: What is 75 percent of 600?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 600.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$x​.

Step 3: From step 1 above,$600=100\%$600=100%​.

Step 4: Similarly, $x=75\%$x=75%​.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

$600=100\%(1)$600=100%(1)​.

$x=75\%(2)$x=75%(2)​.

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

600

x​=

100%

75%​​

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

x

600​=

75

100​

Therefore, $75\%$75%​ of $600$600​ is $450$
