Answer:

<h2>c = 220</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = cx + d

<u>For the first equation</u>

f(50) = 27,000

Substitute the value of x that's 50 into the expression

That's

50c + d = 27,000

<u>For the second equation</u>

f(100) = 38,000

Substitute the value of x that's 100 into the expression

We have

100c + d = 38,000

Subtract the first equation from the second one to eliminate d

That's

100c - 50c + d - d = 38,000 - 27,000

50c = 11,000

Divide both sides by 50

We have the final answer as

<h3>c = 220</h3>

Hope this helps you

Why can't you compare 5 minutes in 240 seconds without making some kind of change
grin007 [14]
You have to have the same unit of measure. Here your units are "minutes" and "seconds". In order to compare the two, you must change to 240 seconds into minutes (dividing by 60 = 4 mins) OR change the 5 minutes into seconds (multiply by 60 to give you 300 seconds)

The number of leaves that fall off a tree n days after day 1 is given by the function f (n) = 3(2)".
densk [106]

Answer:

A. On the first day, 3 leaves fall.

B. D. The number of leaves that fall on a given day is 2 times the number of leaves that fell on the previous day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(n) = 3(2)^n

Solving (a) The meaning of 3.

3 represents the initial number of leaves (i.e. the first day) and this proved as follows.

On the first day, n = 0.

Substitute 0 for n in f(n) = 3(2)^n

f(0) = 3(2)^0

f(0) = 3*1

f(0) = 3

Solving (b) The meaning of 2.

2 represents the rate which leaves fall down.

In (a)

f(0) = 3

Take n = 1

Substitute 1 for n in f(n) = 3(2)^n

f(1) = 3(2)^1

f(1) = 3*2

f(1) = 6

When f(1) is divided by f(0), the result 2. So, the number of leaves doubles everyday

Determine whether each statement is always, sometimes, or never true. Explain your reasoning. (By the way, this has to do with a
Norma-Jean [14]
A).  |x| = |-x|
This is always true.
The definition of 'absolute' value is 'size of the number without its sign'.
That's what this expression says.

b).  |x| = -|x|
This is never true, because an absolute value is never negative.
This one would true if x=0 .  So maybe some people might say
it's sometimes true, but that doesn't feel right to me.  I say never.

c).  |-x| = -|x|
This looks to me like exactly the same situation as (b),
and I would say all the same things about it.
