Answer:

3%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much of his body weight in food he requires daily, divide:

\frac{150}{5000}\div\frac{50}{50}=\frac{3}{100}=0.03=3\%

An internet service provider is implementing a new program based on the number of connected devices in each household. Currently
erica [24]

The current rate is simply equal to $175 per month, let us call this as rate A:

A = 175

 

The new rate is $94 plus $4.50 per devices, let us call this as rate B:

B = 94 + 4.50 x

where x is the number of devices connected to the network

 

The inequality equation for us to find x which the new plan is less than current plan is:

94 + 4.50 x < 175

 

Solving for x:

4.50 x < 81

x < 18

So the number of devices must be less than 18.

 

 

- From the graph, we can actually see that the new rate intersects the current rate at number of devices equal to 18. So it should really be below 18 devices.

Construct a table of values for the following functions using the integers from -4 to 4.
jeka57 [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the table attached

a) Given

F(x) = 6/x-2

When x = -4

F(-4) = 6/-4-2

F(-4) = 6/-6

F(-4) = -1

F(x) = 6/x-2

When x = -3

F(-3) = 6/-3-2

F(-3) = 6/-5

F(-3) = -1.2

F(x) = 6/x-2

When x = -2

F(-2) = 6/-2-2

F(-2) = 6/-4

F(-2) = -1.5

F(x) = 6/x-2

When x = -1

F(-1) = 6/-1-2

F(-1) = 6/-3

F(-1) = -2.0

F(x) = 6/x-2

When x = 0

F(0) = 6/0-2

F(0) = 6/-2

F(0) = -3

F(x) = 6/x-2

When x = 1

F(1) = 6/1-2

F(1) = 6/-1

F(1) = -6

F(x) = 6/x-2

When x = 2

F(2) = 6/2-2

F(2) = 6/0

F(2) = infty

F(x) = 6/x-2

When x = 3

F(3) = 6/3-2

F(3) = 6/1

F(3) = 6

F(x) = 6/x-2

When x = 4

F(4) = 6/4-2

F(4) = 6/2

F(4) = 3

b) Given

r(x)=6x+12/x^-4

When x = -4

r(-4) = 6(-4)+12/(-4)^-4

r(-4) = -24+12/(1/256)

r(-4) = -12(256)

r(-4) = -3072

When x = -3

r(-3) = 6(-3)+12/(-3)^-4

r(-3) = -18+12/(1/81)

r(-3) = -6(81)

r(-3) = -486

When x = -2

r(-2) = 6(-2)+12/(-2)^-4

r(-2) = -12+12/(1/16)

r(-2) = -0(16)

r(-2) = 0

When x = -1

r(-1) = 6(-1)+12/(-1)^-4

r(-1) = -6+12/(1)

r(-1) = -6+12

r(-1) = 6

When x = 0

r(0) = 6(0)+12/(0)^-4

r(0) = 0+12/0

r(0) = 12/0

r(0) = infty

When x = 1

r(1) = 6(1)+12/(1)^-4

r(1) = 6+12/1

r(1) = 18(1)

r(1) = 18

When x = 2

r(2) = 6(2)+12/(2)^-4

r(2) = 12+12/1/16

r(2) = 24(16)

r(2) = 384

When x = 3

r(3) = 6(3)+12/(3)^-4

r(3) = 18+12/1/81

r(3) = 30(81)

r(3) = 2430

When x = 4

r(4) = 6(4)+12/(4)^-4

r(4) = 24+12/1/256

r(4) = 36(256)

r(4) = 9216

The distance of a golf ball from the hole can be represented by the right side of a parabola with vertex (−1, 8). The ball reach
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The required equation is:

y = -\frac{4}{3}t^2 -\frac{8}{3}t + 4

Explanation:

Let us assume that the hole is at y = 0m, with x as the time.

From the question we have (-1s, 8m) as the vertex (here x being the time variable is supposed to be in seconds and y being the distance variable is supposed to be in meters)

At x = 1s, the ball gets to the hole, therefore we have point (1s, 0m)

We know that the vertex of the parabola y = ax² + bx + c is at

x =\frac{-b}{2a}

therefore we have:

-1 = \frac{-b}{2a}

We then have the following equations:

8 = a\times -1^2 + b\times -1 + c

0 = a\times -1^2 + b\times 1 + c

-1 = \frac{-b}{2a}

From the 3rd equation we have

1 X 2a = b.

Therefore we have:

8 = a\times -1^2 - 1\times 2a\times1 + c

0 = a\times 1^2 + 1 \times2a\times 1 + c

We can simplify both equations and get:

8 = a\times( -1^2 - 2s^2) + c = -a\times 3^2 + c

0 = a\times(1^2 + 2^2) + c = a\times 3^2 + c

The first equation now becomes:

8 = -a\times 3 - a\times 3 = -a\times 6

a = frac{8}{-6} = -\frac{4}{3}

With a, we can find the values of c and b.

c = -a\times3 = -(-\frac{4}{3})*3 = 4

b = 1\times 2a = 1\times 2(-\frac{4}{3})= -\frac{8}{3}

Then the equation is:

y = -\frac{4}{3}t^2 -\frac{8}{3}t + 4

Which expression can be used to find 20 percent of 92? One-fifth times 92 StartFraction 1 Over 20 EndFraction times 92 One-half
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is (\frac{1}{5}) 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we must use proportions

                     92 ---------------------- 100

                      x   ----------------------  20

Use cross multiplication to solve this proportion

                      x = 92 (\frac{20}{100})

Simplify \frac{20}{100}

              = \frac{10}{50} = \frac{5}{25} = \frac{1}{5}

Substitute this value

                                    9(\frac{1}{5}
