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 is an equation of the line that passes through the points (0, 2) and ( 5, 4)?
creativ13 [48]

Answer: y = 2/5 x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

why not do this one too yk

slope = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

4 - 2 / 5 - 0

slope = 2/5

ill use (5,4) for the y=mx+b initial equation

y = mx+b

4 = (2/5)(5) +b

4 = 2 + b

2 = b

now for the final equation whoop whoop

y = 2/5 x + 2

Nina knows that the average of the x-intercepts represents the line of symmetry for a quadratic function through the x-axis. Whi
Ghella [55]

Answer:

To get the x-intercepts of the function, f(x) = 4x2 – 24x + 20

It has to be equated to zero and the values of x are the x-intercepts. So,

4x2 – 24x + 20 = 0

The resulting equation is a quadratic equation which can be solved by different methods. The solution is

x = 5, 1

The average therefore is:

(1+5/)2 = 3

Multiply both sides:

(2x + 2)(x + 3)

= 2x^2 + 6x + 2x + 6

= 2x^2 + 8x + 6
