Answer:

We know that the box has:

0.6lb of caramels

3.6lb of coconut.

Then the total mass of candy in the box is:

0.6lb + 3.6lb = 4.2lb

This is the 100% of the box.

Now, we can write this as:

4.2lb = 100%

For example, if we want to know which percentage is caramels, we write the equation:

0.6lb = X

We want to find the value of X

Then we have two equations:

0.6lb = X

4.2lb = 100%

Let's take the quotient of these two equations:

(0.6lb/4.2lb) = X/100%

Now we can solve this for X:

(0.6lb/4.2lb)*100% = X = 14.3%

the caramels represent the 14.3% of the wheight of the box.

And for the coconut candy, we have the relation:

3.6lb = Y

Now let's do the same again, we start with the two equations:

3.6lb = Y

4.2lb = 100%

Take the quotient:

(3.6lb/4.2lb) = Y/100%

Solve for Y:

(3.6lb/4.2lb)*100% = Y = 85.7%

Now we found the percentage that represent each type of candy in the box.

What is the domain of the function f(x)= e^x/e^x+c if c is a constant greater than 0
Viktor [21]

Answer: Option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the domain of the function we should look for the values for which the denominator is equal to zero, because the division by zero is not allowed.

We know by definition that the function e^x is always greater than zero for all <em>x</em>.

We know that the constant <em>c</em> is greater than zero (c>0).

Then, the expression e^x+c is never equal to zero.

Therefore, it does not exist a value for <em>x</em> that makes the denominator 0. Then, the domain of the function is all real numbers.

The answer is the option d.
