On average, Americans consume 13.9 pounds of ice cream per person over an entire year. Ben loves ice cream, but limits himself to one 6 ounce (oz) serving each week. Find the difference between the amount of ice cream that Ben consumes compared to the national average.

5.6 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

13.9 pounds of ice cream are consumed per year by individual.

Ben consumes 6 ounce serving per week.

The amount of ice cream consumed by Ben in a year can be determined by;

since there is an average of 52 weeks in a year, then;

6 ounces x 52 = 312 ounces

But,

1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds

So that,

312 ounces = x pounds

x = 312 x 0.0625

  = 19.5

x = 19.5 pounds

Thus, Ben consumes 19.5 pounds of ice cream per year. He consumes more than the average value per person in a year.

The difference = Amount Ben consumes - National average

                        = 19.5 - 13.9

                        = 5.6 pounds

answer: a) (0,0), (1,1), (2,8), and (3,27).

step-by-step explanation:

0^3=0

1^3=1

2^3=8

3^3=27

in effect, the exponential equation for this would me y=3^x. each x-coordinate cubed is giving the y coordinate, so a is your answer : )
