Answer:

6\ lb = 2.724\ kg

11\ kg = 24.2\ lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1\ kg = 2.2\ lb

1\ lb = 0.454\ kg

Required

- Convert 6 lb to kg

- Convert 11kg to lb

To solve for (a), we make use of the second conversion unit:

1\ lb = 0.454\ kg

Multiply both sides by 6

6 * 1\ lb = 0.454\ kg * 6

6\ lb = 2.724\ kg

<em>Hence, a 6lb backpack weighs 2.724kg</em>

Solving (b): 11 kg to lb

Here, we make use of the first conversion unit

1\ kg = 2.2\ lb

Multiply both sides by 11

11 * 1\ kg = 2.2\ lb * 11

11\ kg = 24.2\ lb

<em>Hence, the cat weighs 24.2lb</em>

Describe any domain restrictions that make sense for each of these scenarios: The price of a stock fluctuates several times thro
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

  • a) Restriction: days of the year (a discrete time)

  • b) The time the ball is on the air: t = 0, until the balls touchs the ground (any real value from t = 0 to t when the ball hits the ground)

  • c) Any positive real value: x ≥ 0

Explanation:

The <em>domain </em>is the set of elements that can be inputs of the <em>function</em>.

<u><em>1. The price of a stock fluctuates several times throughout the year as a function of time.</em></u>

The input variable is the time through out the year.

If you assume that the fluctuaion is recorded once a day, and not every second, the logical assumption is that the time is a day of the year.

Thus, the restricion is the days of the year.

You could represent them in different forms, like DD/MM/YY, or even as a number from 1 to 365 if it covers just one year.

<u><em></em></u>

<u><em>2. A ball is hit into the air by a baseball player, rises until it reaches its highest point, and then falls into left field.</em></u>

The domain is the time the ball is on the air, which may be any real value from t = 0, until the balls touchs the ground.

It is not restricted to integer numbers.

<u><em>3. The volume of a spherical balloon increases as the balloon is blown up and decreases as air is let out of it.</em></u>

The inputs of the function are amounts of air, which may be measured as number of moles.

The number of moles can be any real value equal or greater than zero.

Thus, the domain is the positive real values x ≥ 0.

John kept track of how many baskets were made in a basketball game. After 4 minutes, 5 baskets were made.
ivann1987 [24]

1 basket is between 9 and 10 minutes .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , John kept track of how many baskets were made in a basketball game. After 4 minutes, 5 baskets were made.  We need to find How many baskets were made between 9 and 10 minutes . Let's find out:

In order to calculate baskets between 9 min and 10 min we will find baskets at 10 min and at at 9 min , will subtract than !

Baskets at 10 min :

At 4 min we have 5 baskets so , in 10 min

⇒ (10)\frac{5}{4}

⇒ 1.25(10)

⇒ 12.5

Baskets at 9 min :

At 4 min we have 5 baskets so , in 9 min

⇒ (9)\frac{5}{4}

⇒ 1.25(9)

⇒ 11.25

So , Baskets between 10 & 9 min is 12.5-11.25=1.25 , which on rounding off gives 1 . Therefore , 1 basket is between 9 and 10 minutes .
