Answer:

30 = total muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how many muffins were eaten, we take the total muffins times the fraction that were eaten

eaten muffins = total muffins * fraction

25 = total muffins* 5/6

Multiply each side by 6/5

6/5*25 = total muffins *5/6*6/5

30 = total muffins

Zoey purchased a new car in 1992 for \$28,000$28,000. The value of the car has been depreciating exponentially at a constant rat

elena-s [515]

400$
Explanation:
In 1992, the price is 28000$ and 9600$ in 1996 so in 4 years the value the car lost is 18400$
Dividing 18400 by 4 years we get 4600 depreciation value per year.
Between 1996 and 1998 there is 2 years
So in 1998 the value of the car will be:
9600 (value in 1996) - 2x4600 = 400$

F(x) = x² + 5x-1 is shifted 3 units right. The result is g(x). What is g(x)?

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When a function is being shifted to the left, all x values will be added by y units shifted. (The constant that comes with x is excluded, eg. 3x shifted by 2 units left, becomes 3(x+2) and not 3x+2.)

Likewise, when a function is being shifted to the right, all x values will be subtracted by y units shifted. (Constant rules applies as well.)

Given f(x) is shifted 3 units right,

the new function, g(x) becomes:

$g(x) = {(x - 3)}^{2} + 5(x - 3) - 1$
