Answer:

20 ounces = 1.25 pound = 1 1/4 pound

We easily see and can convert 1/5 of a pound is 0.25 pound

6/5 = 20 ounces = 1 1/5

5/5 = 1 pound

When we reverse for ounces we see

1 pound =16 ounces

1/4 pound is 4 ounces

1/2 pound is 8 ounces

3/4 pound is 12 ounces

1 1/4 therefore is 20 ounces.

Determine the growth defined by the equation y=3(3.4)x

jekas [21]

$\bf \qquad \textit{Amount for Exponential Growth}\\\\
A=I(1 + r)^t\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\\
r=rate\to r\%\to \frac{r}{100}\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\\
\end{cases}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\stackrel{A}{y}=\stackrel{I}{3}(3.4)^{x}\implies y=3(1+\stackrel{r}{2.4})^x
\\\\\\
\cfrac{r}{100}=2.4\implies r=100\cdot 2.4\implies r=\stackrel{\%}{240}$

What statements is equal to the expression p\11

V125BC [204]

Answer: "p divided by 11" or "p over 11" or "p by 11".

Step-by-step explanation:

We use mathematical statements to express any algebraic expression.

For example: We write 2x as "2 is multiplied by x " or " product of 2 and x".

p+q as "sum of p and q" or "p is added to q"

The given expression is : $\dfrac{p}{11}$

In mathematical statements, it can be written as "p divided by 11" or "p over 11" or "p by 11".

Hence, the statements are equal to the expression $\dfrac{p}{11}$ are "p divided by 11" or "p over 11" or "p by 11".

What is the vertex of the function f(x) = x2 + 12x?

Sophie [7]

We can start by figuring out the axis of symmetry.

y = x² + 12x = x (x + 12)

So roots are x = -12 or 0

Therefore axis of symmetry is x = (-12 + 0) / 2 = -6

We got x-coordinate of vertex. Now plug in x=-6 to solve for y.

y = (-6)² + 12(-6) = 36 - 72 = -36

Therefore vertex is (-6, -36).
