Gary and Joey share a 16-ounce box of cereal. By the end of the week, Gary has eaten 3/8 of the box, and Joey has eaten 1/4 of the box of cereal. How many ounces are left in the box?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

3/8 of the box is left so 6 ounces is left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the 1/4, 2/8 then add 2/8 by 3/8 to get 5/8 then subtract 8/8 by 5/8 to get 3/8 then multiply it by 2 to get 6/16.

So the answer is 6/16 or 6.
Answer 2
Answer: Let’s start by converting the fractions into percentages.
1/4=25%
3/8=37.5%
25% of 16= 4
37.5% of 16= 6
4 + 6 = 10
16 - 10 = 6
Answer: 6 ounces

A. Use the composition to prove whether or not the functions are inverses of each other.B. Express the domain of the compositions using interval notation.

Answers

Here we need to find fog and gof, and they must be equal to x .

Let's check out fog

fog = f(g(x))

f((4x+1)/(x))

Substituting the value of g(x) in f(x) for x, we will get

(1)/((4x+1)/(x)-4) =(1)/((4x+1-4x)/(x))=x

Domain

Here the input function is g(x), and the denominator should not be 0. So x should not be zero. Therefore, domain is

(-\infty,0)U(0, \infty)

Now let's check gof

gof = g(f(x))

Here we need to insert f(x) in g(x) for x, and on doing that , we will get

(4((1)/(x-4))+1)/((1)/(x-4)) = (4+x-4)/(1)=x

Domain

Here the input function is f(x), and denominator should not be zero.

SO domain is

(- \infty,4)U(4, \infty)

Since fog = gof =x, so the given function are inverses of each other .

Is 2/6 greater than 2/8

Answers

yes 2/6 is greater than 2/8 because when simplified 2/6 is 1/3 and 2/8 is 1/4 1/3 is larger than 1/4 because 1/4 is equal to 25% while 1/3 is equal to 33% hope that helped
Yes it is. 
2/6= 1/3
2/8= 1/4
1/3 is greater than 1/4.

BRAINLIEST ANSWER!!What is the median of the data represented by the box plot?



Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

The median is 20 because this is the middle vertical line of the box and whisker plot (aka box plot). The median line doesn't have to be in the direct center of the box. It just has to be between the edges of the box. The left edge is Q1 and the right edge is Q3. 

Answer: The answer is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

If you count all the numbers shown in the question: 0, 12.5 ,20 65 And 145.75

You have 5 numbers all together,

Tip: Look for the key word, such as the key word in this question is ''Median''

The word Median stands for ''The median is the middle number in a sorted, ascending or descending, list of numbers and can be more descriptive of that data set than the average.''

This means that the number 20 is the correct answer because, They are two numbers behind the number 20 being 0 and 12.5. And there's two numbers in front of the number 20 being 65 and 143.75
