794.1 ÷ 7.61 = 104.34954 
Round off to two decimal places: 
104.349 
round 4 up to 5 because the next number is greater than 5: 
9 > 5 
So 
= 104.35

Answer:

f(x)=\frac{5}{18}x+54

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Ramp height: 15 inches.
  • Ramp base: 54 inches.

The height is represent by <em>y, </em>and the base length is represented by <em>x.</em>

A linear function is defines by its slope, which is the ratio of the vertical change and horizontal change. In this case, that ration is between the height and the base length:

m=\frac{15}{54}=\frac{5}{18}

Now, the given linear relation intercept the vertical axis at y = 15, because the height is above the point of reference. So, using the point-slope formula, we have

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})\\y-54=\frac{5}{18}(x-0)\\y=\frac{5}{18}x+54

Therefore, the linear function is

f(x)=\frac{5}{18}x+54

0.03x+0.06 (6500-x)=225
Solve for x
0.03x+390-0.06x=225
0.03x-0.06x=225-390
-0.03x=-165
X=165÷0.03
X=5500 invested at 3%

6500-5500=1000 invested at 6%

-8&lt;2x-4&lt;4 solve the inequality
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality will be split into two

It is know that, if a<b<c

Then a<b and b<c

-8<2x-4<4

Apply that to this

Then,

-8<2x-4. Equation 1

Also,

2x-4<4 equation 2

Solving equation 1

-8<2x-4

Add 4 to both side of the equation

-8+4<2x-4+4

-4<2x

Divide both sides by 2

-4/2<2x/2

-2<x

Note, if a is less than b, then, b is greater than a, e.g. 4 is less than 10, this implies 10 is greater than 4

Therefore,

-2<x

Then, x greater than -2

Equation 2

2x-4<4

Add 4 to both side of the inequalities

2x-4+4<4+4

2x<8

Divide both side by 2

Then,

2x/2<8/2

x<4

Therefore x is between -2 and +4.
