Answer:

$31.86

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use a proportion here.

37.05 = 100%

x = 86% (100%-14% which is a delivery fee)

x = (37.05*86)/100

x = 3186.3/100

x = 31.86

The cost of their dinner before the delivery fee was $31.86.

I hope that I helped :)

Decide whether Rolle's Theorem can be applied to f(x) = x2 + 5 on the interval [0, 3]. If Rolle's Theorem can be applied, find a
kap26 [50]
F(x)= x² + 5, is just a parabola shfited upwards by 5 units, so, is a smooth graph and no abrupt edges, so from 0 to 3, is indeed differentiable and continuous.  So Rolle's theorem applies, let's check for "c" by simply setting its variable to 0, bear in mind that, looking for "c" in this context, is really just looking for a critical point, since we're just looking where f'(c) = 0, and is a horizontal tangent line.

\bf f(x)=x^2+5\implies \cfrac{df}{dx}=2x\implies 0=2x\implies \boxed{0=x}\leftarrow c

So with ∠b and ∠a, they are a linear pair, which are adjacent angles that are formed when two lines intersect. Linear pairs are supplementary, which means that they add up to 180 degrees. With our information, we can form the equation 5b+b=180 (Remember that ∠a = 5b)

Firstly, combine like terms: 6b=180

Next, divide both sides by 6 and ∠b = 30 degrees.

Next, to find ∠a, just multiply the value of ∠b (30 degrees) and 5, and ∠a = 150 degrees.

Next, ∠c and ∠a are vertical angles, which are angles that are across from each other that are formed by intersecting lines and are congruent to each other. In this case, since we know that ∠a = 150 degrees, this means that ∠c = 150 degrees.

Next, ∠b and ∠d are vertical angles as well (Refer back to the prior paragraph for definition of vertical angles.). Since ∠b = 30 degrees, ∠d = 30 degrees as well.

Next, ∠a and ∠e are corresponding angles. Corresponding angles are angles that are in the same relative position with each other, are formed when a transversal crosses parallel lines, and are congruent to each other. In this case, ∠a and ∠e are the leftmost angles of their intersections and since ∠a = 150 degrees, ∠e = 150 degrees.

And lastly, ∠b and ∠f are corresponding angles (refer to prior paragraph for more info on corresponding angles). Since ∠b = 30 degrees, ∠f = 30 degrees.
