Answer: 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The options are:

A. 23

B. 18

C. 14

D. 32

Since we are told that the ratio of the number of packages of corn tortillas to the total number of packages on the shelf was 7 to 16. This simply means that the ratio of flour tortillas to the total number of packages on the shelf was (16 -7 = 9) 9 to 16.

Therefore, to get the number that could represent the number of packages of flour tortillas the clerk put on the shelf we have to find the multiple of 9 in the question given . This will be:

Multiples of 9 = 9, 18, 27, 36, 45 ....

Based on the option, the answer will be 18.

The equation 5m=36.25 models a constant rate situation. What is the value of 7m
Bond [772]

Answer:

7m = 50.75

Step-by-step explanation:

5m=36.25

We can solve this for m by dividing each side by 5

5/5m=36.25/5

m = 7.25

We want to find 7m

7(7.25) = 50.75

I don’t know how to do this
stich3 [128]

To check for continuity at the edges of each piece, you need to consider the limit as x approaches the edges. For example,

g(x)=\begin{cases}2x+5&\text{for }x\le-3\\x^2-10&\text{for }x>-3\end{cases}

has two pieces, 2x+5 and x^2-10, both of which are continuous by themselves on the provided intervals. In order for g to be continuous everywhere, we need to have

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-3^-}g(x)=\lim_{x\to-3^+}g(x)=g(-3)

By definition of g, we have g(-3)=2(-3)+5=-1, and the limits are

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-3^-}g(x)=\lim_{x\to-3}(2x+5)=-1

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-3^+}g(x)=\lim_{x\to-3}(x^2-10)=-1

The limits match, so g is continuous.

For the others: Each of the individual pieces of f,h are continuous functions on their domains, so you just need to check the value of each piece at the edge of each subinterval.
