Larissa eats 3/5 of a 1.5-pound bag of goldfish in 5/6 of an hour. If she eats goldfish at a constant rate, how long, in hours, would it take her to finish a 5-lb box of goldfish?

it will take Larissa 4 17/27 hours to finish 5lbs of goldfish

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5 pound = 1 1/2 pound equivalent to 3/2 pounds

3/5 of a 1.5-pound

= 3/5 × 3/2 pounds

= 9/10 lbs of goldfish eaten in 5/6 hours

how long, in hours, would it take her to finish a 5-lb box of goldfish?

Find the ratio

9/10 lbs of goldfish : 5/6 hours = 5lbs of goldfish : t hours

9/10 ÷ 5/6 = 5 / t

Solve for t

9/10 × 6/5 = 5 / t

54 / 50 = 5 / t

Cross multiply

54 × t = 50 × 5

54t = 250

Divide both sides by 54

t = 250 / 54

= 4 34/54

= 4 17/27 hours

Therefore, it will take Larissa 4 17/27 hours to finish 5lbs of goldfish

1 x=22.52

2: 65/39=604+39x

65x-39x=604

26x=604

x=604/26

×=23.23

let's cover over the formula of the vertex:

y = a(x – h)^2 + k

in this formula, (h,k) are the vertex, always remember that the positive or negative value of the vertex is based on the sign it has.

for example, if the vertex is -3,-6 then both the x and y value would have the positive sign attached to it and if it were a positive x and y value, then a negative sign would be attached to it.

with that being said, for our problem the x value is a positive one so we are looking for a number with a negative sign next to it, in this case the first and second choice.

however, for the first answer choice it isn't quite part of the formula so we know that the answer choice correctly displays the x value.

to confirm, we can see if the -1 fits correctly with the second answer choice, and as mentioned above a negative number will have a positive sign attached to it. so, for our problem we can see that -1 has been changed to +1, so we can confirm that the second answer choice is correct.

hence, our final answer is y=(x - 1)^2 + 1
