Answer:

\$15.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Rand initially starts with 18 pounds of meat. After cutting steaks weighing  pound 15 ounces, 3 and 1/8 pounds, and 4 and 1/2 pounds, he will have:

18-1.9375-3.125-4.5=8.4375 pounds of meat left (there are 16 ounces in a pound).

Since he sells patties that measure 9 ounces, convert 8.4375 pounds to ounces:

8.4375\text{ lbs}\cdot 16\text{ oz/lb}=135\text{ oz}

Because each patty is 9 ounces, he can make \frac{135}{9}=15 patties. He sells 3 of them for $3.12, meaning the price per patty is \frac{\$ 3.12}{3}=\$1.04.

Therefore, he makes 1.04\cdot 15=\boxed{\$15.60}

Answer:

3:30PM

Step-by-step explanation:

Martina starting playing video games as soon as she got home from school. She played video games for 15 minutes. Then Martina helped clean the kitchen for 45 minutes. After the kitchen was clean, it took Martina 15 minutes to finish her homework. When Martina finished her homework, it was 4:45 P.M. What time did Martina get home from school?

Step 1

We add up the minutes it took her to do things

= Minutes for video games + Minutes for cleaning the kitchen + Minutes for doing homework

= 15 minutes + 45 minutes + 15 minutes

= 75 minutes

= 1 hour 15 minutes

Step 2

When Martina finished her homework, it was 4:45 P.M. What time did Martina get home from school?

This is calculated be subtracting 1 hour 15 minutes from 4:45 PM

= 4:45 PM - 1 : 15

= 3:30PM

Therefore, Martha got home from school by 3:30 PM

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  -3, 7, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can fill in the boxes from the table values as shown in the attachment.

The leading coefficient is negative because the parabola opens downward. The value of it is the change in y-value as x changes by 1 unit either side of the vertex.

The vertex is identified by the fact that the y-values are symmetrical either side of the vertex.
