Answer:

 Unemployment (August) = 35'222/634'512 ≈ 0.0555 ≈ 5.55%

Employed (August) = 634'512-35'222 = 599'290

Labor force (September) = 634'512-156'518 = 477'994

Employed (September) = 599'290-206'024 = 393'266

Unemployed (September) = 477'994-393'266 = 84'728

Unemployment (September) = 84'728/477'994 ≈ 0.177 ≈ 17.7%

Which graph shows the same end behavior as the graph of f(x) = 2x6 - 2x2 - 5?
aleksandrvk [35]

Step-by-step explanation:

End behavior of a polynomial function is the behavior of the graph of f(x) as x tends towards infinity in the positive or negative sense.

  Given function:

            f(x)  = 2x⁶   -    2x²   -  5

To find the end behavior of a function:

  • Find the degree of the function. it is the highest power of the variable.

  Here the highest power is 6

  • Find the value of the leading coefficient. It is the number before the variable with the highest power.

   Here it is  +2

We observe that the degree of the function is even

         Also the leading coefficient is positive.

For even degree and positive leading coefficient, the end behavior of a graph is:

x → ∞ , f(x) = +∞

x → -∞ , f(x) = +∞

The graph is similar to the attached image

A store is having a sale on trail mix and jelly beans. For 5 pounds of trail mix and 6 pounds of jelly beans the total cost is $
inna [77]

The cost for each pound of trail mix and each pound of jelly is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t = cost/pound of trail mix

Let j = cost/pound of jelly beans

5t + 6j = 35

3t + 2j = 15  =  > 2j = 15 - 3t

5t + 3(15 - 3t) = 35

5t + 45 - 9t = 35

- 4t + 45 = 35

- 4t  =  - 10

4t = 10

t = 2.5

3(2.5) + 2j = 15

7.5 + 2j = 15

2j = 7.5

j = 3.75

Help solve 4 and 5 please
Sloan [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4). a). If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then it must be a RECTANGLE.

b). If the diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular, then it must be a SQUARE.

c). If the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect the angles of the parallelogram, then it must be a RHOMBUS.

d). If the diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular and congruent, then it must be a SQUARE.

e). If a parallelogram has four congruent sides, then it must be a SQUARE.

5). Given quadrilateral SELF is a rhombus.

a). All sides of a rhombus are equal,

   Therefore, ES = EL = 25

b). Diagonals of a rhombus bisects the opposite angles,

   Therefore, m∠ELS = m∠FLS

    3x - 2 = 2x + 7

    3x - 2x = 7 + 2

    x = 9

c). Diagonals of the rhombus bisect the opposite angles, and adjacent angles are supplementary.

m∠ELF = 2(m∠ELS) = 2(2y - 9)

m∠LES = 2(m∠LEF) = 2(3y + 9)

And 2(2y - 9) + 2(3y + 9) = 180

(2y - 9) + (3y + 9) = 90

5y = 90

y = 18
