Answer:
(c) f(x) is an even degree polynomial with a positive leading coefficient.
Step-by-step explanation:
The leading terms of the two functions are ...
f(x): x² (even degree, positive coefficient: 1)
g(x): x³ (odd degree, positive coefficient: 1)
Then it is true that ...
f(x) is an even degree polynomial with a positive leading coefficient
The money multiplier is 1/ 0.12
40 pieces
8/1 : 1/5 = 8/1*5/1 = 40/1 = 40
Another method :
1/5 = 0.2
8/0.2 = 40
Let x = price of the bike before a sales tax.
The price after a sales tax of 8% is
x + 0.08x = 1.08x dollars
Because the price paid was $171.18, therefore
1.08x = 171.18
x = 171.18/1.08 = $158.50
Answer: 158.50
