Answer:

The first thing to do is to make the denominators of the fractions the same:

16 / 4 = 4.  4 X 3 = 12.

12/16.

16 / 1 = 16.  16 X 1 = 16

16/16

Now you write this out as a fraction equation:

(16/16 - 1/16) / 12/16

15/16 / 12/16

Since all you need to know is the whole number, you can easily tell that 15 / 12 is less than 2.  

Therefore, Alex is able to fill one 3/4-point containers with orange butter.

Clara brought 24 donuts for the office. If 6 of them were chocolate, what percent of the donuts were chocolate
mafiozo [28]
To find the percent, you have to divide 24/6 
24/6 = 0.25
Now you convert 0.25 to a percent. 
So move the decimal point 2 places to the right. 
= 25 %

Complete the square to find the vertex of this parabola.PLEASE HELP!!
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

(1, 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 2x + y - 4 = 0 ( add 4 to both sides )

x² - 2x + y = 4

Complete the square on x² - 2x

add ( half the coefficient of the x term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 1)x + 1 + y = 4 + 1, that is

(x - 1)² + y = 5

Subtract (x - 1)² from both sides

y = - (x - 1)² + 5

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

y = - (x - 1)² + 5 ← is in vertex form

with vertex = (1, 5 )
