Divide number of pounds eaten by the portion of the bag eaten.
= 4 1/2 pounds ÷ 3/4
= 4.5 ÷ 0.75
= 6 pound bag
CHECK:
multiply total pounds of bag by portion eaten
= 6 pound bag * 3/4
= 4 1/2 pounds eaten
ANSWER: The bag was 6 pounds of dog food.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
y = -2x^2(x - 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>Preliminary Remark</u></em>
If a cubic is tangent to the x axis at 0,0
Then the equation must be related to y = a*x^2(x - h)
<em><u>(3,0)</u></em>
If the cubic goes through the point (3,0), then the equation will become
0 = a*3^2(3 - h)
0 = 9a (3 - h)
0 = 27a - 9ah
from which h = 3
<em><u>From the second point, we get</u></em>
4 = ax^2(x - 3)
4 = a(1)^2(1 - 3)
4 = a(-2)
a = 4 / - 2
a = -2
<em><u>Answer</u></em>
y = -2x^2(x - 3)
Answer:
x y
-2 0
0 2
Slope: 1
y-intercept = 2 ( 0, 2 )
