Answer:

<em>I will need to buy 22.5 pounds of turkey and pay $23.63</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proportions</u>

Each person is planned to eat 2 x 3/8 pound servings of turkey for thanksgiving dinner. This means each person will eat

2\cdot\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3}{2}

pounds of turkey.

There are going to be 15 people at the dinner, thus the total turkey needed is:

15\cdot\frac{3}{2}=22.5~pounds

The turkey costs $1.05 per pound, thus the total cost is

22.5*$1.05 = $23.63

I will need to buy 22.5 pounds of turkey and pay $23.63

Laura invests $2500 in one account and $1500 in an account paying 2 % higher interest. At the end of one year she had earned $11
Crank

Answer:

$2500 - 2%

$1500 - 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Say the interest for the $2500 is x, so the interest for the $1500 is x+0.02.

As an equation, they would look like this:

2500x+1500(x+0.02)=110

Now solve

2500+1500x+30=110

4000x=80

x=0.02

That means the interest for the $2500 is 0.02, or 2%, and the interest for the $1500 is 0.04, or 4%.

Answer:

(f\cdot g)(x)=2x^2+10x+12

(f-g)(x)=-x-1

(f+g)(1)=10

Step-by-step explanation:

\tt f(x)=x+3

\tt g(x)=2x+4

(f\cdot g)(x)=f(x)\cdot g(x)=(x+3)(2x+4)=2x^2+4x+6x+12

=2x^2+10x+12

(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)=x+3-(2x+4)=x+3-2x-4

=-x-1

(f+g)(1)=f(1)+g(1)=1+3+2(1)+4

=4+2+4=10
