Answer:
(A)
- P(60) = 78.98
- When the bookstore spends $60 on a textbook, the student pays $78.98
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
P(x) = 1.053(x+0.25x)
P(60) = 1.053(60+0.25*60)
=1.053(60+15)
=1.053(75)
P(60)=$78.98
Since x is the cost from the publisher, when the bookstore spends $60 on a textbook, the student pays $78.98.
<u>The correct option is A.</u>
Answer: 11/24
Step-by-step explanation:
whenever u see this — (
it means the opposite of. so the opposite of -5/8 is +5/8.
-1/6 + 5/8 = 11/24
hi
f°g mean apply g(x) and then use result of g(x) as "x" in f(x)
so as g(x) = x² +1 and f(x) = 3x+2
so if we call g(x) X we have
f( X) = 3 X +2
now we replace " X" for it's value
f(X) = 3 ( x² +1) +2
f(X) = 3x² +3 +2
f(X) = 3x² +5
so f°g = 3x² +5
You haven't shared "the given value of x," or, if you have, you haven't drawn attention to it.
Just suppose we were to choose x = 4 as a possible solution and then try to find a value of the parameter k that would make x = 4 an actual solution.
2(4) + 4k - 9 = (4)(4) - (4) + 1
Then 8 + 4k - 9 = 16 - 4 + 1, or 4k - 1 = 13. Then 4k = 14, and k = 14/4, or (after reduction) k = 7/2
If the parameter k equals 7/2, then x = 4 is a solution to the given equation.
To check this out further, start with the proposed solution x = 5 and find k.
