Jana And Jordan had 23 oranges Jana had 7 fewer oranges than Jordan how many oranges did each girl have

Mathematics
1 answer:
Solnce55 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Jana had 8 oranges, and Jordan had 15 oranges.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, identify what you know:

1) In total, Jana and Jordan had 23 oranges.

2) Jana had 7 less oranges than Jordan.

We can create a formula, where x equals the number of oranges Jana has.

23 = x + (x + 7)

16 = x + x (subtracted 7 from both sides)

x = 8 (divided both sides by 2)

So, now we know Jana had 8 oranges, which is 7 less than Jordan.

8 + 7 = ?

? = 15

Jana had 8 oranges, while Jordan had 15, for a total of 23 oranges.

To me personally, the first bit f(g(x)) is easy and the domain is tricky. Let's try explain this.

A function takes an input number and returns an output number depending on the function. Look at f(x) = x+3, if we let the input number be 2 then we say that f(2) = 5. We could do f(π) to give us π+3 or even f(x²) to give us x² +3. The trick is to substitute the input into the function equation.

You have been asked to find f(g(x)). You know f(x) = \frac{1+x}{1-x}. Putting numbers in at this point would be easy (try work out f(2), you'll do it really quick) but you have to put in g(x).

f(g(x)) = \frac{1+g(x)}{1-g(x)}
we also know that g(x) = \frac{x}{1-x} so we can say that
f(g(x)) = \frac{1+ \frac{x}{1-x} }{1- \frac{x}{1-x} } and that is f(g(x)) but the question requires that we simplify it so
\frac{1+ \frac{x}{1-x} }{1- \frac{x}{1-x} }  =  \frac{ \frac{1-x}{1-x} +  \frac{x}{1-x} }{ \frac{1-x}{1-x} - \frac{x}{1-x} } =  \frac{ \frac{1}{1-x} }{ \frac{1-2x}{1-x} } =  \frac{1}{1-2x}

f(g(x)) = \frac{1}{1-2x}

Now for the tricky bit (for me, at least). The domain is the full set of values that you can 'put in to' the function and still get a real value out. So how do we work out what numbers 'break' the function? I like to use the fact that DIVIDING BY ZERO IS IMPOSSIBLE. What value of x can we put into the function to make it so the function is being divided by 0? i.e. 1-2x = 0 solve that and you have a value of x that isn't part of the domain.

This means the domain is all real numbers EXCEPT the solution to that equation. (Because if we put that value into f(g(x)) it's impossible to get a value out.)

[I know this was a lot to read, if you have any questions or don't get anything feel free to message me or leave a comment.]

HELP!! ANSWER AND SHOW STEPS IF POSSIBLE! ASAP HELP PLEASE
Schach [20]
<span>1.) Previous balance = 3529.30
APR = 18.6%, thus monthly interest rate = 18.6 / 12 = 1.55%
Previous balance + interest = 3529.30(1 + 0.0155) = 3584.00
New balance after transaction = 3584.00 + 148 = 3732.00

2.) Previous balance = 5834.53
APR = 20.4%, thus monthly interest rate = 1.7%
Previous balance - payment = 5834.53 - 150 = 5680.53
Balance + interest = 5634.53(1 + 0.017) = 5781.17
New balance after transaction = 5781.17 + 325 = 6106.17

3.) Total payment = 15264
Number of payments = 72 monthly payments
Monthly payment = 15264 / 72 = 212

4.) Amount bollowed = 7400 at 7% APR
Amount plus interest = 7400(1 + 0.07) = 7918
Monthly payment = 7918 / 12 = 659.83

Check the picture below.

\bf \cfrac{8}{12}=\cfrac{x+4}{2x+1}\implies 16x+8=12x+48\implies 4x=40&#10;\\\\\\&#10;x=\cfrac{40}{4}\implies x=10
