We know there are 3 backpacks. So when we add the known values 9 3/4 and 1 3/4, we get 11 1/2. So 32- 11 1/2 will give you the pink backpack weight which is 20 and 1/2 pounds.

If f(x)=3x+10x and g(x)=4x-1 find (f-g)(x)
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

(f - g)(x) = 9x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out functions

f(x) = 3x + 10x = 13x

g(x) = 4x - 1

Step 2: Find (f - g)(x)

(f - g)(x) = 13x - (4x - 1)

(f - g)(x) = 13x - 4x + 1

(f - g)(x) = 9x + 1

Four tomatoes and eight avocados cost $10. Six tomatoes and fourteen avocados cost $17.
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

(a)

A single avocado costs $1

A single tomato costs $0.5

(b)

An avocado costs twice as much as a tomato

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the tomatoes with T and the avocados with A.

So, we have:

4T + 8A = 10 --- (1)

6T + 14A = 17 --- (2)

Solving (a): The price of each

Multiply (1) by 1.5

1.5(4T + 8A = 10)

6T + 12A = 15 --- (3)

Subtract (3) from (2)

(6T + 14A = 17) - (6T + 12A = 15)

6T - 6T + 14A - 12A = 17 - 15

14A - 12A = 17 - 15

2A = 2

Divide both sides by 2

A = 1

Substitute 1 for A in (1)

4T + 8A = 10

4T + 8(1) = 10

4T + 8 = 10

Make 4T the subject

4T = 10 - 8

4T = 2

Divide both sides by 4

T = \frac{2}{4}

T = 0.5

Solving (b): Analysis

In (a), we have:

T = 0.5

A = 1

<em>We can say that an avocado costs twice as much as a tomato</em>

A = 5500e^(.08*6)A = $8888.41Always round money to two decimal places unless told otherwise.
