The total cost is given by the equation:
C(t) = 45 + 25(h-1) where h is the number of hours worked.

We can check for each option in turn:

Option A:

Inequality 5 < x ≤ 6 means the hour is between 5 hours (not inclusive) to 6 hours (inclusive)
Let's take the number of hours = 5
C(5) = 45 + (5-1)×25 = 145
Let's take the number of hours = 6
Then substitute into C(6) = 45 + (6-1)×25 = 170
We can't take 145 because the value '5' was not inclusive.


Option B:
The inequality is 6 < x ≤ 7
We take number of hours = 6
C(6) = 25(6-1) + 45 = 170
We take number of hours = 7
Then C(7) = 25(7-1) + 45 = 195

Option C:
The inequality is 5 < x ≤ 6
Take the number of hours = 5
C(5) = 25(5-1) + 45 = 145
Take the number of hours = 6
C(6) = 25(6-1) + 45 = 170
We can't take the value 145 as '5' was not inclusive in the range, but we can take 170

Option D:
6 < x ≤ 7
25(6-1) + 45 < C(t) ≤ 25(7-1) + 45
170 < C(t) ≤ 195

Correct answer: C

Long Division: (3x^4-8x^3-x^2+9x+5) / (x-2) pleaseee answer this
Drupady [299]

3<em>x</em>⁴ = 3<em>x</em>³ • <em>x</em>, and

3<em>x</em>³ (<em>x</em> - 2) = 3<em>x</em>⁴ - 6<em>x</em>³

Subtract this from the numerator to get a remainder of

(3<em>x</em>⁴ - 8<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) - (3<em>x</em>⁴ - 6<em>x</em>³) = -2<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5

-2<em>x</em>³ = -2<em>x</em>² • <em>x</em>, and

-2<em>x</em>² (<em>x</em> - 2) = -2<em>x</em>³ + 4<em>x</em>²

Subtract this from the previous remainder to get a new remainder of

(-2<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) - (-2<em>x</em>³ + 4<em>x</em>²) = -5<em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5

-5<em>x</em>² = -5<em>x</em> • <em>x</em>, and

-5<em>x</em> (<em>x</em> - 2) = -5<em>x</em>² + 10<em>x</em>

Subtract this from the last remainder to get a new one of

(-5<em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) - (-5<em>x</em>² + 10<em>x</em>) = -<em>x</em> + 5

-<em>x</em> = -1 • <em>x</em>, and

-1 (<em>x</em> - 2) = -<em>x</em> + 2

This gives a new remainder of

(-<em>x</em> + 5) - (-<em>x</em> + 2) = 3

3 does not divide <em>x</em>, so we're done.

So, we have

(3<em>x</em>⁴ - 8<em>x</em>³ - <em>x</em>² + 9<em>x</em> + 5) / (<em>x</em> - 2) = 3<em>x</em>³ - 2<em>x</em>² - 5<em>x</em> - 1 + 3/(<em>x</em> - 2)
