Answer:

27.83$  I believe

Step-by-step explanation:

30.09 is the end price, so multiply that times 7.5% or 0.075 in decimal terms

You would get 2.25675 which is the amount of tax that was paid

So all you have to left is subtract 2.25675 from 30.09 to find the original price

30.09-2.25675=27.83325

or 27.83 rounded to the nearest hundredth

Please find the general limit of the following function:
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The general limit exists at <em>x</em> = 9 and is equal to 300.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the general limit of the function:

\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 9}(x^2+2^7+(9.1\times 10))

By definition, a general limit exists at a point if the two one-sided limits exist and are equivalent to each other.

So, let's find each one-sided limit: the left-hand side and the right-hand side.

The left-hand limit is given by:

<h3>\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 9^-}(x^2+2^7+(9.1 \times 10))</h3>

Since the given function is a polynomial, we can use direct substitution. This yields:

=(9)^2+2^7+(9.1\times 10)

Evaluate:

300

Therefore:

\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 9^-}(x^2+2^7+(9.1 \times 10))=300

The right-hand limit is given by:

\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 9^+}(x^2+2^7+(9.1\times 10))

Again, since the function is a polynomial, we can use direct substitution. This yields:

=(9)^2+2^7+(9.1\times 10)

Evaluate:

=300

Therefore:

\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 9^+}(x^2+2^7+(9.1\times 10))=300

Thus, we can see that:

\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 9^-}(x^2+2^7+(9.1\times 10))=\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 9^+}(x^2+2^7+(9.1\times 10))=300

Since the two-sided limits exist and are equivalent, the general limit of the function does exist at <em>x</em> = 9 and is equal to 300.

Simplify the expression using long division. (10x2 – 85x – 10) ÷ (x – 8)
Lelechka [254]

Answer: 5 • (2x2 - 17x - 2)

 ———————————————————

        x - 8      

Step-by-step explanation:

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 

Step  2  :

           10x2 - 85x - 10

Simplify   ———————————————

                x - 8      

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

3.1     Pull out like factors :

  10x2 - 85x - 10  =   5 • (2x2 - 17x - 2)  

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

3.2     Factoring  2x2 - 17x - 2  

The first term is,  2x2  its coefficient is  2 .

The middle term is,  -17x  its coefficient is  -17 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -2  

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   2 • -2 = -4  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -4  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -17 .

     -4    +    1    =    -3  

     -2    +    2    =    0  

     -1    +    4    =    3  

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!  

Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
