Answer:
(1)The percentage error is 6.897 % .
(2)The total cost of the wallet is $34.35 .
(3)The salesman's commission as a percent of his total monthly sales is 4% .
(4)The interest is $5400 .
Step-by-step explanation:
First part
Formula
Change in value = |Approx value - Exact value|
As given
Mark estimates that the distance from his house to his school is 15.5 mi. The actual distance is 14.5 mi.
Approx value = 15.5 mi
Exact value = 14.5 mi
Change in value = |15.5 - 14.5|
= 1
Put all the values in the formula
Percentage error = 6.897 % (Approx)
Thus the percentage error is 6.897 % .
Second part
The price of a wallet is $31.95 and the sales tax is 7.5%.
7.5% is written in the decimal form
= 0.075
Sales tax price = 0.075 × Price of the wallet
= 0.075 × $31.95
= $2.4 (Approx)
Total cost of the wallets = Cost of the wallet + Sales tax price
= $31.95 + $2.4
= $34.35
Therefore the total cost of the wallet is $34.35.
Third part
Formula
A sneaker store salesman had $4,125 in total monthly sales last month. He made $165 in commission from those sales.
Part value = $165
Total value = $4125
Put all the values in the formula
Percentage = 4%
Therefore the salesman's commission as a percent of his total monthly sales is 4% .
Fourth part
Formula
Principle = $12000
Rate = 15%
Time = 3 years
Put all the values in the formula
Simple interest = $5400
Therefore the interest is $5400 .
1. Percent error is 
The guess is 15.5mi, and the actual distance is 14.5 mi.
Percent error is
2. The cost will be $31.95*(1+0.075) = $34.35
The 1 represents 100% of the original amount of $31.95, and now we add 7.5% (0.075) to the 100%. In other words we multiply $31.95 by 107.5%.
3. His commission will be $165 out of $4125, or $165/$4215 = 0.039 = 3.9%
4. The principal (amount of money you start with) is $12000, and the interest rate is 15% of that.
15% of $1800 = 0.15*$12000 = $1800
The guess is 15.5mi, and the actual distance is 14.5 mi.
Percent error is
2. The cost will be $31.95*(1+0.075) = $34.35
The 1 represents 100% of the original amount of $31.95, and now we add 7.5% (0.075) to the 100%. In other words we multiply $31.95 by 107.5%.
3. His commission will be $165 out of $4125, or $165/$4215 = 0.039 = 3.9%
4. The principal (amount of money you start with) is $12000, and the interest rate is 15% of that.
15% of $1800 = 0.15*$12000 = $1800

Explanation:
Set the denominator x^4-8x^3+16x^2 equal to zero and solve for x
x^4-8x^3+16x^2 = 0
x^2(x^2-8x+16) = 0
x^2(x-4)^2 = 0
x^2 = 0 or (x-4)^2 = 0
x = 0 or x-4 = 0
x = 0 or x = 4
The x values 0 and 4 make the denominator zero
These x values lead to asymptote discontinuities because the numerator 8x-24 = 8(x-3) has no common factors which cancel with the denominator factors.
There are two vertical asymptotes
Let's see what happens when we plug in a value to the left of x = 0, say x = -1, we'd get
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(-1) = (8(-1)-24)/((-1)^4-8(-1)^3+16(-1)^2)
f(-1) = -1.28
So as x gets closer and closer to x = 0 from the left side, the f(x) is heading to negative infinity
Now plug in some value to the right of x = 0. I'm going to pick x = 1
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(1) = (8(1)-24)/((1)^4-8(1)^3+16(1)^2)
f(1) = -1.78 (approximate)
So as x gets closer and closer to x = 0 from the right side, the f(x) is heading to negative infinity
Overall, as x approaches 0 from either the left or right side of x = 0, the y value is heading off to negative infinity
---------------------
Repeat for values to the left and right of x = 4
We can't use x = 1 as it turns out that x = 3 is a root
But we can use something like x = 3.5 to find that...
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(3.5) = (8(3.5)-24)/((3.5)^4-8(3.5)^3+16(3.5)^2)
f(3.5) = 1.31 approx
So as x gets closer to x = 4 from the left, y is getting closer to positive infinity
Plug in x = 5 to find that
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(5) = (8(5)-24)/((5)^4-8(5)^3+16(5)^2)
f(5) = 0.64
which has the same behavior as the left side
So overall, as we approach x = 4, the y value is heading off to positive infinity
Again everything is summarized in the image attachment
Note: you could make a table of more values but they would effectively say what has already been said. It would be redundant busy work. However, its always good practice for function evaluation.
