Assume the normal quantity of cookies is x.
The demanded quantity by the stores now:
0.5x
The previous cost is: $4 * 0.5x = $2x
The cost of demanded quantity by the stores now: $5 * 0.5x = $2.5x
The price elasticity of demand: $2.5x - $2x = $0.5x
Hope that helps you
Answer:
False, 5 is not a factor of 54.
Answer:
f(g(x)) = x
Explanation:
In order to prove that one function is the inverse of the other, all you have to do is substitute in the main function with the inverse one and solve. If the result is x, then it is verified that one function is the inverse of the other.
Now for the given functions we have:
<span>f(x) =5x-25
</span><span>g(x) = (1/5)x+5
We want to prove that g(x) is the inverse of f(x).
Substitute in the above formula and compute the result as follows:
f(g(x)) = 5(</span>(1/5)x+5) - 25
= x + 25 - 25
= x
The final result is "x", therefore, it is verified that g(x) is the inverse of f(x)
Hope this helps :)
Given that Janice monthly salary is $2,396. And she has deductions of federal income tax withheld at the rate 15%, social security tax at the rate of 6.2% and medicare tax at the rate of 1.45% and health insurance premium worth 95$ per month.
Let us calculate total deductions.
Federal income tax = 15% of 2396 = 0.15*2396 =$359.4
Social security tax = 6.2% of 2396=0.062*2396 =$148.552
Medicare tax = 1.45% of 2396= 0.0145*2396=$34.742
<u>health insurance premium =$95 </u>
Total deductions = $637.694
To calculate Janice net pay we have to subtract deductions from monthly salary that is 2396-637.694 = $1758.306
Hence net pay of Janice is $1758.306 per month.
Answer: 3 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Turned into mixed numbers: -7/3 + 17/3
Multiply all the numbers by 3: -7 * 3 = -21
17 * 3 = 51
3 * 3 = 9
-21 + 51 = 30
30/9
30/9 = 3 1/3
