The Mad Hatter is ordering cups from Teacups

Mathematics
1 answer:
Flura [38]2 years ago
3 0

a) The piecewise function is:

C(n) = 12 + 1.40n, n \leq 20

C(n) = 15 + 1.1n, n > 20

b) Applying the piecewise function, it is found that it will cost $40.

A <u>piecewise function</u> is a function that has different definitions based on the input.

Item a:

  • <u>20 or fewer cups</u>, fixed cost of $12 for shipping plus $1.40 per cup. Thus, the <em>first definition</em> of the function for the cost of n cups is:

C(n) = 12 + 1.40n, n \leq 20

  • For <u>more than 20 cups</u>, price of $1.1 per cup plus a shipping and handling fee of $15. Then:

C(n) = 15 + 1.1n, n > 20

Then, the piece-wise function is:

C(n) = 12 + 1.40n, n \leq 20

C(n) = 15 + 1.1n, n > 20

Item b:

  • The cost of 20 cups is C(20).
  • It is the first definition, which is valid for n \leq 20.

Then:

C(20) = 12 + 1.4(20) = 12 + 28 = 40

It will cost $40.

Lin notices that the number of cups of red paint is always 15 of the total number of cups (0.2 of the total number of cups). She
ivann1987 [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of cups of red paint is always 15 of the total number of cups. 0.2 of the total number of cups.

She writes the equation r = 15t (r = 0.2t) to describe the relationship.

In this case, the total no. of cups is an independent variable. No. of cups do not depend on any term.

The number of cups of red paint is a dependent variable as it depends on the number of cups.

I NEED HELP ASAPPPP<br> In square YOLA , RL=5x+28 and RO=8x-11 find the measure of line segment RY
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

RL=5x+28 and

RO=8X-11

diagonal of square bisect equally the side

:.5x+28=8x-11

11+28=8x-5x

39=3x

x=39/3=13

RY=RL=5x+28=5×13+28=93If the answer is 93, move to S

What is the gradient of a line<br> perpendicular to a line with a gradient<br> of 5
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

-1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

When a line is perpendicular to another line, it's gradient will be a reciprocal.

To calculate the reciprocal of a number you have to flip the fraction the other way around.

So, in the case our current gradient is 5/1 (5/1 is the same as just 5) and we need to flip in over to get 1/5, which is our new gradient.

The final step is to make the number negative because the line is going down. This gives us the final answer of -1/5.
