Calculating

90 calories x

------------------- * -------------- will indicate the total calories consumed by Sarah.

12 oz 32 oz

12x = (90)(32) = 2880, therefore x = 240

Sarah ingested 240 calories.

Solution:

Sarah ingests 240 calories from energy drinks.

Here's a breakdown of the explanation:

Let’s assume she consumes x calories of the drink.

In 12 oz of this drink, it contains 90 calories

While she drinks a 32oz energy drink. Therefore, we can set up the equation

$\frac{12}{90}=\frac{32}{x}$

By solving the equation for x

$12x=90\times32\\\\x=\frac{90\times32}{12}\\\\x=240$

Thus, Sarah consumes 240 calories from energy drinks.

How do the graphs of the functions f(x) = (Three-halves)x and g(x) = (Two-thirds)x compare?

tester [12383]

Answer:

To summarize the answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\bold{f(x)= (\frac{3}{2})^x}\\\\\bold{g(x)= (\frac{2}{3})^x}\\$

Here is the graph associated with this question:

The second function, denoted as $g(x)= (\frac{2}{3})^x$ , does not qualify as a function.

Keep in mind that the g(x) function is the inversion of the f(x) function. Recognizing this pattern indicates a reflection on the Y-axis.

Reflection on the axes:

In the x-axis:

Enhance the function by -1 to illustrate an exponential curve around the x-axis.

In the y-axis:

Decrease the input of the function by -1 to depict the exponential function around the y-axis.

Tim was given a large bag of sweets and ate one third of the sweets before stopping as he was feeling sick. The next day he ate

Leona [12618]

Answer: Initially, he had 27 sweets.

Step-by-step explanation: The most logical approach is to work backwards from what remained after the third day to the start of the first day.

On the third day, he consumed one-third of his sweets and was left with 8. If we let the total sweets on day three be denoted as a, then one-third of a equals what he ate and the two-thirds left equals 8, giving us:

8/a = 2/3

By cross-multiplying, we find:

8 x 3 = 2a

Therefore, 24 = 2a

This leads to a = 12.

Let the sweets on day two be represented as b. If he consumed one-third of b and was left with 12, we have the same structure; hence:

12/b = 2/3

Cross-multiplying gives:

12 x 3 = 2b

So, 36 = 2b, leading to b = 18.

Denote the number of sweets on day one as x. If one-third of x was eaten and 18 remained, we can set up the equation:

18/x = 2/3

Again, cross-multiplying results in:

18 x 3 = 2x

Which simplifies to 54 = 2x, yielding x = 27.

Thus, Tim received 27 sweets at the start.
