– 72 = 3(- 4x – 8) Need help

Mathematics
1 answer:
Finger [1]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-72 = 3(-4x - 8)

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

<u>Distribute 3:</u> -72 = -12x - 24

<u>Add 24 to both sides:</u> -48 = -12x

<u>Divide both sides by -12:</u> x = 4

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify if it's a solution.</em>

-72 = 3(-4(4) - 8)

-72 = 3(-16 - 8)

-72 = 3(-24)

-72 = -72

The function for the cost of materials to make a muffin is f(x) = Three fourths x + 3, where x is the number of muffins. The fun
larisa [96]

So first let’s put g(f(x)) together by putting f(x) for every x in g(x)

We get g(f(x))=3(3/4x+3)+4 which is the selling price equation

Then you plug in 20 to find the selling price for 20 muffins.

g(f(x))=3(3/4(20)+3)+4

g(f(x))=3(60/4+3)+4

g(f(x))=3(18)+4

g(f(x))=54+4

g(f(x))=58

So the selling price will be $58 for 20 muffins.
