Answer: 1/40 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

1 orange weighs 1/5 pound

since if has been cut into 8 slices, then 1 out of those slices is 1/8

Let x = weigh of 1/8 slices.

We can solve this using proportion

1/5 pounds = 1 orange

x = 1/8 orange

Lets cross multiply

x = 1/5 × 1/8

x = 1/40 pound.

Therefore each slice weigh 1/40 pound

Lisa sold $75 worth of play tickets.Adult tickets cost $4 each and children’s ticket cost $4 each.How many children’s tickets co
Helga [31]
Yes, there are many possible answers. An equation that can model your situation is:
4a+4b=75, with a being the amount of adult tickets sold, and b being the amount of children’s tickets sold.
Because both tickets cost 4 dollars, you would multiply the amount of tickets sold, by the price (in dollars) of the ticket.
So, you can find possible answers by substituting the amount of adult tickets sold. Say, 4 adults bought tickets. You could then substitute a for 4. So the equation would look like this.
4(4)+4b=75
16 + 4b = 75
4b = 75 - 16
4b = 59
Divide each side by four
B = 14.75

The reason you got a decimal number is because 75 cannot be divided by 4 evenly. So, in this context, you could say that 15 children bought tickets. One child had an issue, and Lisa gave them a 25% discount. This would explain why there are only 75 dollars worth in tickets. I hope I helped, this is my first question I have ever answered so I’m not entirely sure if this was helpful or not. Hope you figure this out!

Can you help me graph and list the (Zeros, Maximums, Minimums, Asymptotes)
Marina86 [1]

The zero of the function is at 33.69 degree , the graph is plotted and attached with the answer.

<h3>What is a Function ?</h3>

A function is a law that relates a dependent variable and an independent variable with each other

It is given that

y = 2tan (x - π/2) +3

To find the zeroes of a function that function has to be equated to zero.

2tan (x - π/2) +3 = 0

2tan (x - π/2)  = -3

tan (x - π/2)  = -3/2

x - 90 = -56.31

x = 33.69 degree

The zero of the function is at 33.69 degree

For finding the maxima /minima

the derivative is

dy/dx = 2 sec² (x - π/2)

the point at which the slope is zero is substituted in the second derivative to find maxima/minima

d²y/dx² = 4 sec² (x - π/2) tan (x - π/2)

if the value is negative then it is a maxima and if it is positive it is a minima.

The vertical asymptote is found by finding the values that make the function undefined

x = 0+ πn

No horizontal or oblique asymptote
