8/12. 4/6. 2/3 is the simplest. Just keep dividing it down until you can't divide anymore:)
1) The caterpillar was already at 4.5 feet so 4.5 will be added. If it crawls upwards 38 of an inch every minute and the amount of minutes is not specified, this will be represented as 38x. That means the answer is C. f(x) = 38x + 4.5
2) Substitute the known values into the equation. There are 7 people at $8.25 a person, which is a total of $57.75 <u>I used 7 because he invites 6 friends, plus himself. </u>He only has $50 on his gift card, so he won't have enough to cover the cost. The answer is A.
3) They start out with 40lbs and recieve 120 more. They have 160lbs in total. If they sell 8lbs a day for 5 days, thats 8*5 or 40lbs total. 160 - 40 = 120lbs left after 5 days. I'd say the answers are A, B, and D.
4) I think the answer would be C because 1,500 is used to find the number of grams of isotope present after t years. The number of grams can't be 1,500. I hope that makes sense because I'm not sure how to explain it.
5) The growth factor is 2 (2x, x being the number of hours). Multiply by 15 because the lab has 15 of them. The answer is B. f(x) = 15 * 2x
I hope this helps you! I'm sorry if I got any of them wrong!
B= 30
a2+b2=c2
72^2+b^2 = 78^2
5184+b^2 = 6084
b2 = 900
b = 30
