We know that

Selling price = Cost price - discount

that is

to find the selling price of any article we subtract discount from the cost price

In our problem

Cost price = 12,543

and Discount = 758

Let's plug the values in the formula

Selling price = 12,543 - 758 = 11,785

What is the area of a rectangle with a length of (x - 5) and width of (x + 8)?

dlinn [17]

Answer:

a = x² + 3x - 40

Step-by-step explanation:

a = l * w

a = (x - 5)(x + 8)

a = x(x + 8) - 5(x + 8)

a = (x² + 8x) + (- 5x - 40)

a = x² + 3x - 40

The exponential function f(x) = 3(5)x grows by a factor of 25 between x = 1 and x = 3. What factor does it grow by between x = 5

notsponge [240]

<h2> Question # 1</h2>

Answer:

25 is the factor which grows by between x = 5 and x = 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the exponential function

$f\left(x\right)\:=\:3\left(5\right)^x$

The growth factor between $x=1$ and $x=3$ is given by:

$\left[3\left(5\right)^3\right]\div \left[3\left(5\right)^1\right]$

$\mathrm{Calculate\:within\:parentheses}\:\left[3\left(5\right)^3\right]\::\quad 375$

$\mathrm{Calculate\:within\:parentheses}\:\left[3\left(5\right)^1\right]\::\quad 15$

So,

= $375\div \:15$

= $25$

Similarly, growth factor between $x=5$ and $x=7$ is given by:

$\left[3\left(5\right)^7\right]\div \left[3\left(5\right)^5\right]$

= $\frac{3\cdot \:5^7}{3\cdot \:5^5}$

$\mathrm{Divide\:the\:numbers:}\:\frac{3}{3}=1$

= $\frac{5^7}{5^5}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \frac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}$

$\frac{5^7}{5^5}=5^{7-5}$

= $5^{7-5}$

= $5^2$

= $25$

Therefore, 25 is the factor which grows by between x = 5 and x = 7.

<h2> Question # 2</h2>

Answer:

The population be in 24 years will be 27000.

Also, the population growth modeled by an exponential function as $y=A\cdot \left(b\right)^t$ is an exponential function.

The graph for $y=A\cdot \left(b\right)^t$ is also shown in attached figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a city that currently has a population of 1000 triples in size every 8 years.
what will the population be in 24 years?
Is the population growth modeled by a linear function or an exponential function?

As the city that currently has a population of 1000 triples in size every 8 years.

So, for this case

$y=A\cdot \left(b\right)^t$

where

$A$ = Initial population amount

$b$ = growth rate

$t$ = time

Substituting the values in the function

$y=A\cdot \left(b\right)^t$

$y=1000\cdot \:\:3^{\frac{1}{8}t}$

So, the population be in 24 years

$y=1000\cdot \:\:3^{\frac{1}{8}24}$

$3^{\frac{1}{8}\cdot \:24}=3^3$

$\:y=3^3\cdot 1000$

$y=1000\cdot \:\:27$

$y=27000$

Therefore, the population be in 24 years will be 27000.

Also, the population growth modeled by an exponential function as $y=A\cdot \left(b\right)^t$ is an exponential function.

<h2 /><h2> Question # 3</h2>

Answer:

the graph of the function will translate horizontally 3/5 units right.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the effect on the graph of the function $f(x)=2x$ when it is replaced by f(x- 3/5).

We already have an idea that rule for horizontal translation:

Given a function $f(x)$ , and a constant c > 0, the function $g(x) = f(x - a)$ represents a horizontal shift c units to the right from f(x). The function $h(x) = f(x + a)$ represents a horizontal shift c units to the left.

As 3/5 > 0, so the graph of the function will translate horizontally 3/5 units right.

Therefore, the graph of the function will translate horizontally 3/5 units right.

Please help me and if I can I’ll help you but please I don’t get it!!

kobusy [5.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, let's set up our equation to solve for x (time to travel 13 miles).

$\frac{65}{1} =\frac{13}{x}$

We use this equation to find x. To solve, we divide 13 by 65 to get our answer.

13 ÷ 65 = 0.2

Our answer: 0.2 hours

If the spray paint costs approximately $1.50 per foot of coverage, how much should the coach budget for the spray paint?

torisob [31]

Since the cost of the spray paint is approx $1.50,

The range for the cost of the spray paint is'

$\pm0.05\text{ dollars}$

Therefore, the coach budget should be between,

$\begin{gathered} \text{for }+0.05\text{ dollars,} \\ =1.5+0.05=1.55\text{ dollars and,} \\ \text{for -0.05 dollars,} \\ =1.5-0.05=1.45\text{ dollars} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the budget of the coach should be between $1.45 and $1.55.
