ANSWER

C. 28

EXPLANATION

The given expression is

{x}^{2}  - 7x + 10

We want to evaluate this function at x=-2.

We just have to substitute x=-2 into the given expression.

In other words, we have to replace x with -2 wherever we see x in the expression

{( - 2)}^{2}  - 7( - 2) + 10

We evaluate the exponent to get

4  - 7( - 2) + 10

We multiply next to get:

4   + 14+ 10

We now add to obtain:

28

The correct answer is C

You get a raise of 3.5% each year.

Using an exponential function, it is found that:

a) The doubling time of the salary is of approximately 20 years.

b) The salary will be of $160,000.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

An increasing exponential function is modeled by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t

In which:

  • A(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

The growth rate for this problem is:

r = 0.035.

The doubling time is t for which A(t) = 2A(0), hence:

A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t

2A(0) = A(0)(1.035)^t

(1.035)^t = 2

\log{(1.035)^t} = \log{2}

t\log{1.035} = \log{2}

t = \frac{\log{2}}{\log{1.035}}

t = 20 years.

You retire in 40 years, which is 2 doubling periods, hence the salary will be of:

40000 x 2 x 2 = $160,000.

Find sin A, round to the nearest hundredth.
almond37 [142]

Answer:

.92

Step-by-step explanation:

sin A = opp side/ hypotenuse

       

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

3^2 +7^2 = AC ^2

9+49 = AC ^2

58 = AC^2

Taking the square root

sqrt(58) = hypotenuse

sin A = 7/sqrt(58)

sin A =.91914503

sin A = .92

(Y-2,2x+1)=(x-1,y+2)
Alex

Answer:

x=2 and y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

y-2=x-1

or,x-y=-1.......(1)

again,

2x+1=y+2

or,2x-y=1.......(2)

now,

solving equations (1)&(2),we get,

x=2 and y=3
