Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
w------> the weight in pounds
we know that
A delivery company charges an extra fee for a package that weighs more than 100 pounds
so
For
-----> the company charges an extra fee
therefore
For
----> the company not charge an extra fee
Start with how much profit they are making off each race entry. People pay $55 to race, but $15 of that is expenses so they are only profiting $40 for each entry. Now write one side of the equality. They start with $10,000 in donations, and then have a $40 profit for each race entry. So 10,000+40x. X will represent the unknown number of race entries. What do we want that expression to be equal to? We want 10000+40x>55000. It can also be greater than or equal to, not just greater than.
Solve for x. Subtract 10000 from each side resulting in 40x>45000. Divide each side by 40 to solve for x. X>1125. X needs to bbe greater than or equal to 1125. If there are 1125 race entries, the charity will profit exactly $55000, so the lowest number of race entries is 1125
G(-5) = -25
to solve:
g(-5) = 3.4(-5) -8
divide 2 b 3
2 divided by 3 = 0.625
move decimal point 2 places to the right to turn to a percentage
0.625 = 62.5%
