Answer:

Number = 11\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Soup = 7\frac{1}{2} quarts

Portion = \frac{2}{3} quarts

Required

Determine the number of portions in the soup

<em>The question illustrates division of fractions and to solve this question, we simply divide the size of the soup by the size of the given portion</em>

<em />

<em />Number = Soup/Portion<em />

<em>Substitute values for Soup and Portion</em>

<em />Number = 7\frac{1}{2}\ quarts /\frac{2}{3} \ quarts<em />

<em />Number = 7\frac{1}{2}/\frac{2}{3}<em />

<em />

Convert mixed fraction to improper fraction

<em />Number = \frac{15}{2}/\frac{2}{3}<em />

Number = \frac{15}{2} * \frac{3}{2}

Number = \frac{15*3}{2*2}

Number = \frac{45}{4}

Number = 11\frac{1}{4}

<em>Hence, there are </em>11\frac{1}{4}<em>  of </em>\frac{2}{3}<em> quarts in </em>7\frac{1}{2}<em> quarts of soup</em>

Find an equation of the line containing the given pair of points (5,2) and (-3,5)
anzhelika [568]
(5,2)(-3,5)
slope = (5 - 2) / (-3 - 5) = -3/8

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3/8
use either of ur points...(5,2)...x = 5 and y = 2
now we sub and find b, the y int
2 = -3/8(5) + b
2 = - 15/8 + b
2 + 15/8 = b
16/8 + 15/8 = b
31/8 = b

so ur equation is : y = -3/8x + 31/8....or 3x + 8y = 31

A social media website had 350,000 followers in 2010. The number y of followers
Zolol [24]

Answer:

a) y(t) = 350(1.02)^t

b) 394 thousand = 394,000 people will be following the website in 2016

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equation for an amount:

The exponential equation for an amount after t years has the following format:

y = y(0)(1+r)^t

In which y(0) is the initial value and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

A social media website had 350,000 followers in 2010. The number y of followers increases by 2% each year.

This means that: y(0) = 350, r = 0.02

a. Write an exponential growth function that represents the number of followers t years after 2010

In thousands:

y(t) = 350(1 + 0.02)^t

y(t) = 350(1.02)^t

b. How many people will be following the website in 2016?

2016 is 6 years after 2010, so this is y(6).

y(6) = 350(1.02)^6 = 394.2

Rounding to the nearest thousand:

394 thousand = 394,000 people will be following the website in 2016

(9,-1); m=4/3 write an equation in point slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope
madreJ [45]
For this problem you are going to need to know the point-slope equation which is: 
y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

Now, m=slope and the x and y values are given to us already, so now we just plug our variables into the formula.

It should look like this: y+1= \frac{4}{3}(x-9)
Since all they are asking for is for you to put it into a formula this will be your answer.
