Answer:

4 sales signs

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 10 = 38

Answer:

  4 signs

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount you spent is ...

  cash box cost + sign cost = total amount

You are told the cash box costs $10, the signs are $7 each, and the total is $38. If n is the number of signs, then the total amount is ...

  $10 + $7 × n = $38

Subtracting the cost of the cash box gives the amount you spent on signs:

  7n = 28

Dividing by 7 gives the number of signs:

  28/7 = n = 4

You bought 4 signs.

Express the function f(x) =3x^2-6x-18 in the form a(x + h)^2=k, where a, h and k are constants.Hence state the :
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The minimum value of f(x) is -21 and it occurs at x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =3x^2-6x-18

Factor out the greatest common factor out of the first two terms

f(x) =3(x^2-2x)-18

Complete the square

-2x/2 =-1  (-1)^2 = 1

Add 1  (But remember the 3 out front so we are really adding 3  so we need to subtract 3 to remain balanced)

f(x) = 3(x^2 -2x+1) -3 -18

f(x) = 3(x-1)^2 -21

This is vertex form

f(x) = a(x-h)^2 +k  where (h,k) is the vertex and a is a constant

The vertex is (1,-21)  

Since a > 0 this opens upward and the vertex is a minimum

The minimum value of f(x) is -21 and it occurs at x = 1

0.24a + 0.5 = 4.5 What does the variable equal
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

16.66

Step-by-step explanation:

1) eliminate constant first by performing the opposite operation:

0.24a+0.5-0.5=4.5-0.5

0.24a=4.0

divide both sides by 0.24

a=16.66
