Mathematics
1 answer:
Mumz [18]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

LARGER NUMBER IS 15 AND SMALLER NUMBER IS 9

Step-by-step explanation:

LET THE LARGER NUMBER BE X AND SMALLER BE Y

X + Y = 24 …….1

X = 6 + Y …… 2

WE SOLVE SIMULTANOUSLY  

SUBTRACTNG EQATION 2 FROM 1

X – X  + Y – (-Y) = 24 – 6

Y + Y = 18

2Y = 18

DIVIDING EACH TERM BY 2

2Y/2 = 18/2

Y = 9

THEN PUTTING Y = 3 IN EQUATION  2

X = 9 + 6

X = 15

Darien ordered soda for $2.75, a sandwich for $8.50, and a dessert for $3.85. Sales tax was $1.15. Use mental math to find the t
natta225 [31]
What I would do is start with the price of the dessert and the sales tax $3.85+ $1.15= $5. I started with this because when you add the cents they equal a dollar which makes it easier to continue.


Then I would add the 2.75. This would be 7.75.


Then add 7.75 + 8.50. To simplify this, you can add 7 + 8, then .75+ .50

Which would equal 15 + 1.25 + 16.25

Teresas restraunt bill comes to $29.99 before tax. If the sales tax is 6.25% and she tips the waiter 20%. What is the total cost
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

$37.86

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 29.99 by 0.0625 to get the sales tax

29.99x0.0625=1.87

Multiply 29.99 by 0.20 to get the tip

29.99x0.20=5.998

Round 5.998 to 6

Add 1.87 to 29.99

29.99+1.87=31.86

Add 6 to 31.86

31.86+6=37.86

On a coordinate plane, a curved line with a minimum value of (negative 1.25, negative 3.25) and a maximum value of (0.25, negati
Juliette [100K]

The correct option is:

As the x-values go to positive infinity, the function's values go to positive infinity.

<h3>What is the end behavior of the function?</h3>

By the description, We know that the function has the points:

(-1.25, -3.25), (0.25, -1.75) (-2.25, 0), (0, -2), (-2.75, 6), (1.5, 6)

Notice that from x = 0.25 to x = 1.5 the function goes upwards, then in the right side, the function goes up, so as x goes to positive infinity, also does f(x).

On the left side, we can see  that from x = -2.75 to x = -2.25 the function goes downwards.

So, as x goes to the left (negative infinity) f(x) goes upwards.

Then as x tends to negative infinity, f(x) tends to infinity.

The correct option is:

As the x-values go to positive infinity, the function's values go to positive infinity.
