With the information provided, we can begin with the equation:

y=35x + b

With x = number of hours, y = total cost, b = fixed amount that is charged for residential work

We know that after 6 hours, $270 was charged:

$270 = $35(6) + b

Solve for b:

b = $270 - $210 = $60

The fixed amount that is charged for residential work is $60. So now we can rewrite the equation as:

y = 35x + 60

Identify the domain and range of the function f(x) = 2x2 − 6x − 9.
mash [69]
Range is the y values or ouputs
domain is inputs or x vvalues

we can use any x value
but at a certain y value, w can't go below that
find thatminimum
find the vertex
for
ax^2+bx+c
the x value of the vertex is
-b/2a
plug that in to the equaiton to get the y value

-b/2a=-(-6)/(2*2)=6/4=3/2

plug that in
2(3/2)^2-6(3/2)-9
2(9/4)-9-9
9/2-18
4.5-18
-13.5

domain=all real numbers
range=from -13.5 to positive infinity

Answer:

{x}^{ - 2}  =  \frac{1}{ {x}^{2} }  \:  \: –> {7}^{ - 2}  =  \frac{1}{ {7}^{2} }  =  \frac{ 1}{49}  \\  \\  {x}^{ - 1}  =  \frac{1}{ {x}^{1} }   \: –>  {7}^{ - 1}  =  \frac{1}{ {7}^{1} } =  \frac{1}{7}  \\  \\  {x}^{0} –> {7}^{0}   = 1 \\  \\  {x}^{1}  –> {7}^{1}  = 7 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  –> {7}^{2}  = 49
