4 0

Answer:

-5x - 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Use distributive rule :   a(b + c) = ab + ac

3x - 8(x + 4) =3x + x*(-8) + 4*(-8)

                   = 3x - 8x - 32         {combine like terms}

                    = -5x - 32

Let f(x) =-2x-7 and g(x)=-4x+3 find (f•g)(-5)
Ierofanga [76]
F(-5) x g(-5)

f(-5) = -2(-5) - 7
f(-5) = 10 - 7
f(-5) = 3

g(-5) = -4(-5) + 3
g(-5) = 20 + 3
g(-5) = 23

f(-5) x g(-5) = 3 x 23 = 69

Your answer is 69

Hey I’m struggling with number 13 so please show your work. Thx
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

\frac{5}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Because \frac{3}{5} is being multiplied by S, we can divide \frac{3}{5} from both sides of the equation. This will give us:

\frac{1}{4}÷\frac{3}{5}

But, that looks a bit hectic. Instead of dividing, you can multiply by the reciprocal (which is essentially how to divide fractions). So, instead of \frac{1}{4}÷\frac{3}{5}, you get:

\frac{1}{4}×\frac{5}{3}

When multiplying fractions, remember you can just multiply straight across-- numerator x numerator, then denominator x denominator.

By doing that, you get the fraction \frac{5}{12}

\frac{5}{12} cannot be simplified any more, so S=\frac{5}{12} is your answer :)

I hope this helps

Kito makes on online purchase of a guitar case for $39.99, a tuner for $24.99 and picks for $26.99. Taxes are 6% of the total pu
maria [59]

Answer:

a. Kito has been billed correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

We simply need to check Kito's work to see if his price is accurate.

First, we can add the prices together to find the price before the sales tax is applied:  39.99 + 24.99 + 26.99 = $91.97

We can use this formula to figure out the total cost, C, after the sales tax, t is added:

C = l + (l * (t / 100)), where l = the price before applying the sales tax

C = 91.97 + (91.97 * (6 / 100)) = 97.4882 = $97.49

We know that the total cost lies between the 50 and 100 and that Kito chose the express shipping.  Thus we add:  97.49 + 8.20 = $105.69.

If we did not round before, we would still get the same answer when rounding:  97.4882 + 8.20 = 105.6882 = $105.69

After college you start a job earning $40,000 a year. You get a 6% raise each year.
alex41 [277]
Answers: A) $44,944
B) $50,499.0784


Math: Using the percentage calculator linked below 6% of $40,000 is $2,400. Since you're getting your second raise after your first and since it is a 6% raise from what you're getting paid at that time we add pay raise 1 to your starting pay before calculating the 6% for pay raise 2. $40,000+$2,400=$42,400. 6% of $42,400 is $2,544. $42,400+$2,544=$44,944, Since that is two pay raises that would be your earnings at the end of year two (answer A).
We continue calculating 6% then adding that onto the total before calculating it for the next year for problem B.
6% of $44,944 is $2,696.64. $44,944+$2,696.64=$47,640.64.
6% of $47,640.64 is $2,858.4384. $47,640.64+$2,858.4384=$50,499.0784. That's answer B.


Hopefully you can figure out C on your own! I feel a little bad for giving a partial answer but I think you can do this!
