Answer:

9° Celsius

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The heated piece of metal cools according to the function,

C(x)=(0.5)^{x-9}

After adding the device that cools according the function,

h(x)=-x-2

The new function that shows the final temperature of the metal,

f(x)=C(x)+h(x)  ( Let )

=(0.5)^{x-9}-x-2

Hence, the temperature of the metal after five hours would be,

f(3) = (0.5)^{5-9}-5-2 =0.5^{-4}-7=(\frac{1}{2})^{-4}-7=2^4-7=16-7=9^{\circ}\text{ Celsius}

Third Option is correct.

The cost of electricity in a certain city is $0.08 for each of the first 300kWh (kilowatt-hours) and $0.13 for each kilowatt-hou
Ivahew [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

0.08*300 + 0.13x = 51.95

Multiply thru by 100 to get:

8*300 + 13x = 5195

13x = 5195-2400

13x = 2,795

x = 215 hours
