Answer:
3.05 or 31/2 pounds
56 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total weight all the weights have to have the same units of measurements
It is either pounds is converted to ounces or ounces is converted to pounds
1. convert ounces to pound
1 ounce = 0.0625
12 ounces = 0.0625 x 12 = 0.75 pounds or 3/4
add together = 1 1/2 + 3/4 + 1 1/4 =
=
= 3 1/2
2. 16 ounces = 1 pound
flour = 16 x 1 1/2 = 24
sugar = 16 x 1 1/4 = 20
total = 24 + 20 + 12 = 56 ounces
==================================================
Work Shown:
The notation "g o f" means g(f(x)). We have f(x) as the inner function that is computed first.
f(x) = { (1,2), (3,5), (4,1) }
The x coordinates of each point are: 1, 3, 4
The y coordinates are: 2, 5, 1
So the input x = 1 goes to y = 2 as the output. That output becomes the input of the g(x) function. Using x = 2 as the input for g, we see that 3 is the output. Check out the diagram below to see how each input goes into f, then goes into g to ultimately determine the x,y pairs. So far we've shown that x = 1 ultimately leads to y = 3.
Let's do another input: if x = 3 is plugged into f(x), then the output is 5 because of the point (3,5). Then x = 5 is plugged into g(x) to get x = 5 lead to y = 1. Ultimately x = 3 leads to y = 1 giving us (3,1) as another point.
Lastly, if x = 4 is plugged into f we get y = 1 as an output, which in turn is plugged into g to get 3 as the final output. The point (4,3) is the last ordered pair.
Again there's a lot to keep track of, so it helps to have a diagram as shown below.
Answer:
x = 3.873 units
or x = units
Step-by-step explanation:
Hypotenuse = 4 , x = height of this isosceles triangle.
base is 2,
so Use Pythagorean Theorem.
x^2 + 1^2 = 4^2
x^2 = 4^2 - 1^2
x^2 = 16 - 1 = 15
x = root(15) =
