Elijah has \frac{1}{2} 2 1 ​ bag of candy. A bag of candy weighs 55 pounds. How many pounds of candy does Elijah have?

137.5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Elijah has 2¹/₂ bags of candy. A single bag of candy weighs 55 pounds so to find the quantity of pounds that Elijah has, multiply 55 by the number of bags that Elijah has:

First convert bags to mixed fraction:

= 2¹/₂ = 5/2

Quantity that Elijah has:

= Number of bags * Weight per bag

= 5/2 * 55

= 137.5 pounds

D. g(x) = (1/4 x)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to choose a solution in which the point (4, 1) works.

A) g(x) = 1/4(x^2) = 1/4(4^2) = 1/4(16) = 4 ≠ 1

B) g(x) = (1/2 x)^2 = (1/2 * 4)^2 = 2^2 = 4 ≠ 1

C) g(x) = 4(x^2) = 4(4^2) = 4(16) = 64 ≠ 1

D) g(x) = (1/4 x)^2 = (1/4 * 4)^2 = 1^2 = 1
