Answer:

C. (f – g)(x) = –2x – 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(f – g)(x) = f(x) – g(x)

= (–5x – 4) – (–3x – 2)

= –2x – 2

The value of an investment A (in dollars) after t years is given by the function A(t) = A0ekt. If it takes 10 years for an inves

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

20 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a formula $A(t)=A_0\cdot e^{kt}$ , which represents the value of an investment A (in dollars) after t years.

Substitute the given values:

$\$3,000=\$1,000\cdot e^{k*10}$

Let us solve for k.

$\frac{\$3,000}{\$1,000}=\frac{\$1,000\cdot e^{k*10}}{\$1,000}$

$3=e^{k*10}$

Take natural log of both sides:

$\text{ln}(3)=\text{ln}(e^{k*10})$

Using property $\text{ln}(a^b)=b\cdot \text{ln}(a)$ , we will get:

$\text{ln}(3)=10k\cdot\text{ln}(e)$

We know that $\text{ln}(e)=1$ , so

$\text{ln}(3)=10k\cdot 1$

$\text{ln}(3)=10k$

$\frac{\text{ln}(3)}{10}=\frac{10k}{10}$

$\frac{\text{ln}(3)}{10}=k$

$\$9,000=\$1,000\cdot e^{\frac{\text{ln}(3)}{10}*t}$

Dividing both sides by 1000, we will get:

$9=e^{\frac{\text{ln}(3)}{10}*t}$

Take natural log of both sides:

$\text{ln}(9)=\text{ln}(e^{\frac{\text{ln}(3)}{10}*t)$

$\text{ln}(9)=\frac{\text{ln}(3)}{10}*t\cdot\text{ln}(e)$

$\text{ln}(9)=\frac{\text{ln}(3)}{10}*t\cdot1$

$10*\text{ln}(9)=10*\frac{\text{ln}(3)}{10}*t$

$10\text{ln}(9)=\text{ln}(3)*t$

$10\text{ln}(3^2)=\text{ln}(3)*t$

$2\cdot 10\text{ln}(3)=\text{ln}(3)*t$

$20\text{ln}(3)=\text{ln}(3)*t$

Divide both sides by $\text{ln}(3)$ :

$\frac{20\text{ln}(3)}{\text{ln}(3)}=\frac{\text{ln}(3)*t}{\text{ln}(3)}$

$20=t$

Therefore, it will take 20 years for the investment to be $9,000.

Independent and dependent events

trapecia [35]

Definitions
Independent events= one outcome of an event doesn’t affect the other outcomes
Dependent events= one outcome of an event affects the other outcomes

Examples
Independent= Jack has a standard deck of cards 52 cards( 26 red and 26 black) what is the probability that he picks a red card or a spade?

Dependent= Jack has a standard deck of cards. What is the probability that he picks a red card or a diamond?

Graph the linear equation.find three points that solve the equation,then plot on the graph -3x++2y=11

Katarina [22]

$-3x+2y=11\qquad\text{add 3x to both sides}\\\\2y=3x+11\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\y=\dfrac{3}{2}x+\dfrac{11}{2}\\\\for\ x=1\to y=\dfrac{3}{2}(1)+\dfrac{11}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}+\dfrac{11}{2}=\dfrac{14}{2}=7\to(1,\ 7)\\\\for\ x=-3\to y=\dfrac{3}{2}(-3)+\dfrac{11}{2}=-\dfrac{9}{2}+\dfrac{11}{2}=\dfrac{2}{2}=1\to(-3,\ 1)\\\\for\ x=-5\to y=\dfrac{3}{2}(-5)+\dfrac{11}{2}=-\dfrac{15}{2}+\dfrac{11}{2}=-\dfrac{4}{2}=-2\to(-5,\ -2)$

What is three eights divided by 24

Arturiano [62]

The answer is 1/64 because you do 3/8 ÷ 24/1 then you

flip and it will be 3/8 ÷ 1/24 you can cross cancel

24 go's into three 8 times so the answer is 1/64s.

Hope I helped!
