Answer:

$8.51

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

100\%+124\%=224\%=224/100=2.24

we know that

For April 2015 the projected cost of a gallon of gas is equal to multiply the currently cost by the percentage increase

so

The linear equation is equal to

3.80(2.24)=\$8.51

Find the inverse of each of the given functions.
Leona [35]

Answer:

The inverse of the function is (3x+4)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse, exchange x and y and then solve for y

y = (2x-4) /3

Exchange x and y

x = (2y-4)/3

Solve for y

Multiply each side by 3

3x = (2y-4)/3 *3

3x =2y-4

Ad 4 to each side

3x+4 = 2y-4+4

(3x+4) =2y

Divide each side by 2

(3x+4)/2 =2y/2

(3x+4)/2 = y

The inverse of the function is (3x+4)/2

Sarah Meeham blends coffee for Tasti-Delight. She needs to prepare 160 pounds of blended coffee beans selling for $4.97 per poun
jok3333 [9.3K]
Given:
let h be the high quality bean
let c be the cheaper bean

h + c = 160
6h + 3.25c = 160*4.97
6h + 3.25c = 795.20

h = 160 - c
6(160 - c) + 3.25c = 795.20
960 - 6c + 3.25c = 795.20
-2.75c = 795.20 - 960 
-2.75c = -164.80
c = -164.80 / -2.75
c = 59.92 or 60 lbs

h = 160 - c
h = 160 - 60
h = 100 lbs

Sarah should blend 60 lbs of cheap coffee bean and 100 lbs of high quality coffee bean.

What value should be added to the expression to create a perfect square? x^2 - 20x
boyakko [2]
To complete the square:
we take the coefficient ox "x" (which in this problem is -20)
we divide it by 2
square that number
then add it to both sides of the equation

-20 / 2 = -10
-10^2 = 100
then we add 100 to both sides of the equation:
x^2 -20x
x^2 -20x +100 = 100
******************************************************
To get the roots of the equation, we take the square root of both sides:
(x -10) * (x-10) = 10
(x-10) = square root (10)
x-10 = <span> <span> <span> 3.1622776602 </span> </span> </span>
x1 = <span> <span> <span> 13.1622776602 </span>
