Answer: $86.65

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how much Justine paid in tax. To do this, first convert 13% to a decimal by dividing by 100. This gets a tax rate of 0.13. Now, multiply the price of the boots by the tax rate. 76.68*0.13 = 9.9684. Round to the nearest cent to get $9.97.

Now, add the amount paid in tax to the price of the boots. 76.68+9.97 = $86.65.

For the functions f(x)=2x-6 and g(x)=5x+1 Which conposition produces the greatest output?

andrew11 [14]

(f o g)(x) = 2(5x + 1) - 6 = 10x - 4

(g o f)(x) = 5(2x - 6) + 1 = 10x - 29

So (f o g)(x) produces the greatest output.

KiRa [710]

Answer:

both kinds of tickets are $5 each

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s and c represent the dollar costs of a senior ticket and child ticket, respectively. The problem statement describes two relationships:

12s + 5c = 85 . . . . . revenue from the first day of sales

6s + 9c = 75 . . . . . . revenue from the second day of sales

Double the second equation and subtract the first to eliminate the s variable.

2(6s +9c) -(12s +5c) = 2(75) -(85)

13c = 65 . . . . . simplify

65/13 = c = 5 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of c

Substitute this value into either equation. Let's use the second one.

6s + 9·5 = 75

6s = 30 . . . . . . . subtract 45

30/6 = s = 5 . . . divide by the coefficient of s

The price of a senior ticket is $5; the price of a child ticket is $5.

Create a matrix that is equal to F+G. The first matrix below is named F and the second matrix below is named G. Name the new mat

likoan [24]

F+G:

$F+G=\begin{bmatrix}{-1.8} & {-8.6} & {} \\ {2.85} & {-1.4} & {} \\ {-1.8} & {5.1} & {}\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}{1.32} & {-1.9} & {} \\ {2.25} & {0.0} & {} \\ {-6.2} & {1.4} & {}\end{bmatrix}$

Then, add the elements that occupy the same position:

$H=\begin{bmatrix}{-1.8+1.32} & {-8.6+(-1.9)} & {} \\ {2.85+2.25} & {-1.4+0.0} & {} \\ {-1.8+(-6.2)} & {5.1+1.4} & {}\end{bmatrix}$

Solve

$H=\begin{bmatrix}{-0.48} & {-10.5} & {} \\ {5.1} & {-1.4} & {} \\ {-8} & {6.5} & {}\end{bmatrix}$

So, we find the element at address h31:

$H=\begin{bmatrix}{h11} & {h12} & {} \\ {h21} & {h22} & {} \\ {h31} & {h32} & {}\end{bmatrix}$

In this case, position h31 is - 8.0
