At the market, 2.4 pounds of peas cost $1.68. How much does 1 pound cost?

Consider the function f(x) = x² – 3x – 4 and complete parts (a) through (C). (a) Find f(a+h); f(a+h)-f(a) (b) Find (c) Find the

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

(a)

$f(a+h)=a^{2} +2ah+h^{2} -3a-3h-4$

(b)

$f(a+h)-f(a)=2ah+h^{2} -3h$

(c)

$\frac{df(a+h)}{dx} \left \{ { \atop {a=7}} \right. =2h+11$

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Simply evaluate (a+h) in the function:

$f(a+h)=(a+h)^{2} -3(a+h)-4=a^{2} +2ah+h^{2} -3a-3h-4$

(b)

Evaluate (a) in the function:

$f(a)=a^{2} -3a-4$

Using the previous answers lets calculate f(a+h)-f(a)

$f(a+h)-f(a)=a^{2} +2ah+h^{2} -3a-3h-4-(a^{2} -3a-4)=2ah+h^{2} -3h$

(c) To find the rate of change of f(a+1) when a=7 we need to calculate its derivate at that point:

$\frac{df(a+h)}{dx} \left \{ { \atop {a=7}} \right. =2a+2h-3=2(7)+2h-3=2h+14-3=2h+11$

Admission to the carnival is $10 plus $2 per ride. John spent $38 on admission and

Inessa [10]

Answer:

he went on 14 rides.

Step-by-step explanation:

take your total, 38, subtract that by 10 (because you have to pay the admission fee) and you have 28 dollars spent on rides. each ride costs 2 dollars so divide 28 by 2 and you get 14.

The answer is C.

Just plug in x = 1 for each of them. The correct one is the one that gives y = 5, which is C.

Marrrta [24]

tis always a good idea when factoring to start off with a quick prime factoring.

$\begin{array}{llll} 52&=&2\cdot 2\cdot 13\\\\ 77&=&\boxed{7}\cdot 11\\\\ 91&=&\boxed{7}\cdot 13\\\\ 124&=&2\cdot 2\cdot 31\\\\ 217&=&\boxed{7}\cdot 31 \end{array}$
