Answer:

The answers to each part are:

Part A.

The quantity of apples is one-third of the quantity of grapes.

Part B.

The quantity of apples is a quarter of the quantity of strawberries.

Part C.

The number of cherries is two-elevenths of the total fruit.

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the answer in each case, you must remember that all the parts are equal, then:

Part A.

The parts of apples are 1 and the parts grapes are 3, so if you divide the first quantity with the second quantity you obtain:

1 / 3 = 1/3 (one-third)

So, the quantity of apples is one-third of the quantity of grapes or the quantity of apples is three times smaller than the quantity of grapes.

Part B.

The parts of apples are 1 and the parts of strawberries are 4, then you must divide the first quantity with the second quantity:

1 / 4 = 1/4 (a quarter)

In this case, the quantity of apples is a quarter of the quantity of strawberries or the quantity of apples is four times smaller than the quantity of strawberries.

Part C.

First, you must add all the part of fruit:

1 part apple
1 part orange
4 parts strawberry
2 parts cherry
3 parts grape

The total of fruits is 11 parts, taking into account the quantity of cherries is 2, now you can divide the number of cherries with the total parts of fruit:

2 / 11 = 2/11 (two-elevenths)

Now, you can see the number of cherries is two-elevenths of the total fruit.

(PLEASE HELP/NO SPAM) Which equation shows the function y=2^x translated 4 units left and 2 units down?

lianna [129]

Answer:

The answer is (h).

Step-by-step explanation:

When y = 2^x is shifted 4 units left, the x shifts 4 units to the left and x becomes (x+4). When the graph is shifted to units down, y has to be subtracted by 2.

The function becomes

y = 2^(x+4) -2.

Finally, you shift -2 to the same side as y.

This becomes

y+2 = 2^(x+4) which is (h)

45.3297 rounded to the nearest tenth would be?

Alex

45.3297 rounded to the nearest tenth is 45.3
3 is in the tenths place, so you look at the number to the right of it. If that number is 5 or more, you round up. If the number is 4 or less, you round down. So you round 45.3297 down to 45.3
