Answer:

  x1 + x2 = 350

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of items sold is the sum of the number of widgets sold and the number of gizmos sold:

  (widgets sold) + (gizmos sold) = total items sold

We are supposed to represent widgets sold using x1, and gizmos sold using x2. The total number of items sold is given in the problem statement as 350. Substituting these values into the above equation, we get the equation you're looking for:

  x1 + x2 = 350

Answer:

The company sold 100 widgets and 250 gizmos.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x_1 be the number of widgets sold and x_2 be the number of gizmos sold.

We are told that the company sold 350 items. We can represent this information in an equation as:

x_1+x_2=350...(1)

We have been given that a each widget sold for $35 and each gizmo sold for $22. The company sold 350 items for a total of $9,000.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

35x_1+22x_2=9,000...(2)

From equation (1), we will get:

x_2=350-x_1

Substitute this value in equation (2):

35x_1+22(350-x_1)=9,000

35x_1+7,700-22x_1=9,000

13x_1+7,700=9,000

13x_1+7,700-7,700=9,000-7,700

13x_1=1,300

\frac{13x_1}{13}=\frac{1,300}{13}

x_1=100

Therefore, the company sold 100 widgets.

Substitute x_1=100 in equation (1):

100+x_2=350

100-100+x_2=350-100

x_2=250

Therefore, the company sold 250 gizmos.

Find the domain of the function. (enter your answer using interval notation.) f(x) = 3x3 − 1 x2 + 2x − 15
Neporo4naja [7]

Hello!

A cubic function is in the form of f(x)=ax^{3}+bx^{2}+cx+d.

All cubic functions have a domain of all real numbers, the range also has a range of all real numbers.

Interval notation is used for representing a function/interval as a pair of numbers. Parentheses and brackets are used to show if the endpoints of a given function/interval are included or excluded. Brackets allow the endpoints to be included while parentheses exclude the endpoint.

Our first instinct would be that the domain is written as [-∞, ∞], but that is incorrect. Infinity is not a number, but it is a concept. This means that they are excluded from the domain.

Therefore, the domain of the function f(x) is (-∞, ∞).
