Question

While in the United States visiting her grandmother, Kendra copied the famous family apple pie recipe. When she returns to England, she plans on making the same apple pie for her friends. To do this, Kendra needs to convert the flour from cups to grams. She knows that 0.5 cup of flour has a mass of 64 grams and 2 cups of flour has a mass of 256 grams.

Write a function that shows grams as a function of cups. Use g(x). I will give medal to whoever helps.

Answer 1

At first I though it would be g(x)=128x but then I looked at it again and thought that maybe it was g(x)=128/x

Answer 2

the right question is g(x) = 128x
just try g(0.5) = 128*0.5 = 64 grams

Answer 3

awesome can you help me with another one?

Answer 4

sure

Answer 5

Evaluate g(x) for any value of x within the domain. Interpret the meaning of your solution in the context of this problem.

Answer 6

part of the same question.

Answer 7

The domain is \[0 \le x \le \infty\]

Answer 8

so should that b emu answer or should I actually answer the function?

Answer 9

*be my

Answer 10

That's the answer, it's like, you have to interpret the meaning of g(x) in this context, which is calculate grams as a function of cups, what means transform cups into grams,

Answer 11

Ok thanks you've helped me a lot!

Answer 12

sorry man.. your domains is from - infinity to + infinity

Answer 13

I misspelled up there

Answer 14

ok

Answer 15

\[-\infty \le x \le +\infty \]

Answer 16

thats where your function can be true, in all this domain.. since you can also calculate negatives grams as negative cups

Answer 17

Thanks! :)

Answer 18

No problem
