(02.02 HC) Arlene is comparing the prices of two truck rental companies. Company A charges $7 per hour and an additional $30 as

service charges. Company B charges $8 per hour and an additional $40 as service charges. Part A: Write an equation to represent each company's total charges for renting a truck for a certain number of hours. For both equations (one for Company A and one for Company B), define the variable used. (4 points) Part B: Which company would charge less for renting a truck for 8 hours? Justify your answer. (3 points) Part C: How much money is saved by using the services of Company A instead of Company B to rent a truck for 2 hours? (3 points)

Given the functions: f(x) = x^2-9 and g(x) = 3 what is (f/g)(x)? A. x-3 B. x-9 C. x+3 D. x+9
uysha [10]

Answer:

f + g)(x) = f (x) + g(x)

= [3x + 2] + [4 – 5x]

= 3x + 2 + 4 – 5x

= 3x – 5x + 2 + 4

= –2x + 6

(f – g)(x) = f (x) – g(x)

= [3x + 2] – [4 – 5x]

= 3x + 2 – 4 + 5x

= 3x + 5x + 2 – 4

= 8x – 2

(f × g)(x) = [f (x)][g(x)]

= (3x + 2)(4 – 5x)

= 12x + 8 – 15x2 – 10x

= –15x2 + 2x + 8

\left(\small{\dfrac{f}{g}}\right)(x) = \small{\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}}(

g

f

)(x)=

g(x)

f(x)

= \small{\dfrac{3x+2}{4-5x}}=

4−5x

3x+2

My answer is the neat listing of each of my results, clearly labelled as to which is which.

( f + g ) (x) = –2x + 6

( f – g ) (x) = 8x – 2

( f × g ) (x) = –15x2 + 2x + 8

\mathbf{\color{purple}{ \left(\small{\dfrac{\mathit{f}}{\mathit{g}}}\right)(\mathit{x}) = \small{\dfrac{3\mathit{x} + 2}{4 - 5\mathit{x}}} }}

The product of a number and 9 less than the number is 90. Find the number.
Goryan [66]

Let's say this number is a:
a*(a-9) = 90
a^2-9a-90 = 0
(a-15)(a+6) = 0
a = 15 or a = -6
Therefor a. would be the correct answer :)

The head of a computer science department is interested in estimating the proportion of students entering the department who wil
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

96

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

At 95% Confidence interval level,Level of significance \alpha 0.05, the value of Z from the standard normal tables = 1.96

Margin of Error = 0.10

Let assume that the estimated proportion = 0.5

therefore; the sample size n can be determined by using the formula: n =(\dfrac{Z}{E})^2 \times p\times (1-p)

n =(\dfrac{1.96}{0.1})^2 \times 0.5\times (1-0.5)

n =(19.6)^2 \times 0.5\times (0.5)

n = 96.04

n \approx 96

Plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz<br><br>evaluate 4x(4+(2^6x2^-3))

11. Factoring and solving equations - A. Factor- 1. Factor 3x2 + 6x if possible. Look for monomial (single-term) factors first; 3 is a factor of both 3x2 and 6x and so is x . Factor them out to get 3x2 + 6x = 3(x2 + 2x1 = 3x(x+ 2) . 2. Factor x2 + x - 6 if possible. Here we have no common monomial factors. To get the x2 term we'll have the form (x +-)(x +-) . Since (x+A)(x+B) = x2 + (A+B)x + AB , we need two numbers A and B whose sum is 1 and whose product is -6 . Integer possibilities that will give a product of -6 are -6 and 1, 6 and -1, -3 and 2, 3 and -2. The only pair whose sum is 1 is (3 and -2) , so the factorization is x2 + x - 6 = (x+3)(x-2) . 3. Factor 4x2 - 3x - 10 if possible. Because of the 4x2 term the factored form wli be either (4x+A)(x +B) or (2x+A)(2x+B) . Because of the -10 the integer possibilities for the pair A, B are 10 and -1 , -10 and 1 , 5 and -2 . -5 and 2 , plus each of these in reversed order. Check the various possibilities by trial and error. It may help to write out the expansions (4x + A)(x+ B) = 4x2 + (4B+A)x + A8 1 trying to get -3 here (2x+A)(2x+B) = 4x2 + (2B+ 2A)x + AB Trial and error gives the factorization 4x2 - 3x - 10 - (4x+5)(x- 2) . 4. Difference of two squares. Since (A + B)(A - B) = - B~ , any expression of the form A' - B' can be factored. Note that A and B might be anything at all. Examples: 9x2 - 16 = (3x1' - 4' = (3x +4)(3x - 4) x2 - 29 = x2 - (my)* = (x+ JTy)(x- my)
