Answer:

Diapers costs $11 and formula is $13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's name diapers as A and formula as B.

Simply the equations:

1A + 2B = $37(1)

2A + 5B = $87(2)

Clear D from one equation.

A = $37 - 2B(1)

Replace D into the other equation.

2*($37 - 2B) + 5B = $87(2)

$74 - 4B + 5B = $87

$74 + B = $87

B = $87 - $74 = $13

Find A, now knowing B.

A = $37 - 2($13)

A = $37 - $26 = $11

Answer:

Cost of a bag of diapers is $11 and cost of one can of formula is $13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let cost of each diaper = $D and cost of each cans of formula = $C

Malik shops a bag of diapers and 2 cans of formula.

He spends total of $37.

So the equation will be

D + 2C = 37 -------(1)

Next week he stops and buys 2 bags of diapers and 5 cans of formula.

He spends total $87.

Equation for this purchase will be

2D + 5C = 87 ----------(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 2 and subtract it from equation (2).

2(D + 2C) - (2D + 5C) = 2×37 - 87

2D + 4C - 2D - 5C = 74 - 87

-C = - 13

C = 13

From equation (1)

D + 2×13 = 37

D + 26 = 37

D = 37 - 26

D = 11

Therefore, cost of a bag of diapers is $11 and cost of one can of formula is $13.

The numeric values for the given functions are as follows:

  • f(1/3) = 1/9.
  • g(4) = 8.
  • g(-3) = -6.

<h3>How to find the numeric value of a function or of an expression at a given point?</h3>

To find the numeric value of a function at x = a, we replace each instance of the variable, usually x, in the function by the desired value of a.

Function f(x) is defined by:

f(x) = x².

For the numeric value at x = 1/3, we replace the lone instance of x by 1/3, hence:

f(1/3) = (1/3)² = 1/9.

Function g(x) is defined by:

g(x) = 2x.

For the numeric value at x = 4, we replace the lone instance of x by 4, hence:

g(4) = 2(4) = 8.

For the numeric value at x = -3, we replace the lone instance of x by -3, hence:

g(-3) = 2(-3) = -6.

How many zeros does the function ????(x) = 3x^2 + 6x + 2 have? Explain how you know.
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The function has 2 zeros:

x = -1 - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\\x = -1 + \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a polynomial function, you can identify the grade of the function (the grade is the maximum potency) and this is the number of zeros that the function will have. In this case, you have a second-grade polynomial function that has 2 zeros.
