Answer:

3 3/4 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

11 ¼ lb ÷ 3

11 ¼ lb x \frac{1}{3}

convert 11 ¼ lb to an improper fraction

to convert to improper fraction, take the following steps :  

1. Multiply the whole number  by the denominator

2. Add the numerator to the answer gotten in the previous step

3. divide the number gotten in the previous step by the denominator  

\frac{45}{4} × \frac{1}{3} = \frac{15}{4} = 3 3/4 lb

Write an equation for a quadratic function that has x intercepts (-3, 0) and (5, 0)
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

One possible equation is f(x) = (x + 3)\, (x - 5), which is equivalent to f(x) = x^{2} - 2\, x - 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor theorem states that if x = x_{0}  (where x_{0} is a constant) is a root of a function, (x - x_{0}) would be a factor of that function.

The question states that (-3,\, 0) and (5,\, 0) are x-intercepts of this function. In other words, x = -3 and x = 5 would both set the value of this quadratic function to 0. Thus, x = -3\! and x = 5\! would be two roots of this function.

By the factor theorem, (x - (-3)) and (x - 5) would be two factors of this function.

Because the function in this question is quadratic, (x - (-3)) and (x - 5) would be the only two factors of this function. In other words, for some constant a (a \ne 0):

f(x) = a\, (x - (-3))\, (x - 5).

Simplify to obtain:

f(x) = a\, (x + 3)\, (x - 5).

Expand this expression to obtain:

f(x) = a\, (x^{2} - 2\, x - 15).

(Quadratic functions are polynomials of degree two. If this function has any factor other than (x - (-3)) and (x - 5), expanding the expression would give a polynomial of degree at least three- not quadratic.)

Every non-zero value of a corresponds to a distinct quadratic function with x-intercepts (-3,\, 0) and (5,\, 0). For example, with a = 1:

f(x) = (x + 3)\, (x - 5), or equivalently,

f(x) = x^{2} - 2\, x - 15.
