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

What are the domain and range of the function f(x)=-3(x-5)squared+4
svet-max [94.6K]
Domain is all real numbers
range
hmm
we know that x^2=a positive number
then multiply it by that negative -3
therefor the range is going to be mostly negative
if we make the x-5  equal to zero, then there is no negative, so
wher x=5, then f(5)=0+4=4
the highest positive number you can get is f(5)=4

so therfor

domain=all real number
range is x≤4

Round 56,291.8 to the nearest thousand.
NeTakaya

Answer:

56,000.0

Step-by-step explanation:

The number 6 is in the nearest thousand. To round, you look at the number in front of the number you are trying to round and decide if that number is higher or lower than five. If the number is higher than 5, round up to the next highest number. If the number is lower than 5, the number stays the same.

(1/2)/2=3/x
we can cross multiply, aka multiply both sides by 2x
(1/2)x=2*3
(1/2)x=6
times 2/1 both sides
x=12
