Answer:

x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

x = y x 3.

5 = y, x = 15.

5 x 3 = 15.

y = 9.

9 x 3 = 27.

Jason’s salary and Karen’s salary were each p percent greater in 1998 than in 1995. What is the value of p ? (1) In 1995 Karen’s

Answer: Hi, first lets give our variables some names.

Lets call Ks to Karen's salary and Js to Jason's salary.

then, in 1995:

Ks₁ - Js₁ = 2000$

in 1998:

Ks₂ - Js₂ = 2440$

now, we know that Ks₂ = (1 +p)*Ks₁ and Js₂ = (1+p)*Js₁

so we can write the second equation as:

p*(Ks₁ - Js₁ ) = 2440$

replacing the parentesis with the first equiation

(1+p)*(2000$) = 2440$

(1+p)= 2440/2000 = 1.22

so p = 0.22, or a 22%

Part I: Domain and Range-identify the domain and range of each graph. Problem / Work Answe 2+ 6+ 2+ 1. Week 15 Homework Packet p

vampirchik [111]

Domain is the set of input values,

In the graph x axis show the domain

Where the x values is lies at -2,-1,0,1,2

Sothe domain will be :

$\text{Domain =-2}\leq x\leq2$

Range is the set of output values,

In the graph the value of function at y axis is : 0,2,4,6,8-2,-4.....

So, the range will be :

$\text{Range = -}\infty\leq y\leq\infty$
