Answer: 1⁵/₈ pints

Step-by-step explanation:

First can contained 3¹/₄ pints and second can contained 6¹/₂.

To make them equal, first find the different;

= 6¹/₂ - 3¹/₄

= 6.5 - 3.25

= 3.25

Divide this difference by 2;

= 3.25/2

= 1.625

= 1⁶²⁵/₁₀₀₀

= 1⁵/₈ pints

If Carson pours 1⁵/₈ pints from the second Can, it would increase the first can to 4⁷/₈ pints whilst reducing the second can to 4⁷/₈ pints as well.

Answer:

1. b.  2. a.  3. a.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (f + g)x = f(x) + g(x)

= x^2 + 2x + 4

(f + g)(-1) =  (f + g)(x)  where x = 1 so it is

(-1)^2 + 2(-1) + 4

=  1 - 2 + 4

= 3.

2.  We find (f o g)(x) by replacing the x in f(x) by g(x):

= √(x + 1) and

(f o g)(3) =  √(3 + 1)

= √4

= 2.

3. (f/g) c  = f(x) / g(x)

= (x - 3)/(x + 1)

The domain is the values of x which give real values of (f/g).

x cannot be - 1 because the denominator x + 1 = -1+1 = 0 and dividing by zero is undefined. So x can be all real values of x except x = -1.

The domain is (-∞, -1) U (-1, ∞)

shepuryov [24]
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
 1. You have that a <span>grapefruit is 8% heavier than an orange and an apple is 10% lighter than the orange. Therefore, let's give a value to the orange as following:
 Orange=1 kg
 2. Therefore, you have:
 Grapefruit=1 kg+(0.08x1 kg)=1.08 kg
 Apple=1 kg-(0.1x1 kg)=0.9 kg
 3. Therefore, what</span><span> percentage is the grapefruit heavier than the apple?
 %=(0.9/1.08)100-100
 %=16.66%
 The answer is:</span>16.66%

−(−2−5x)+(−2)=18 solve for x
lisov135 [29]
PEMDAS: distribute the negative to (-2-5x) so it becomes (2+5x)+(-2)=18

Add 2 to both sides: 2+5x=20

Subtract 2: 5x=18

Divide 5: x= 18/5
