Answer:
-3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the argument where the variable is and do the arithmetic.
f(-1/4) = 2(-1/4) -3 = -1/2 -3
f(-1/4) = -(3 1/2)
Find the reciprocal of the second fraction (flip numerator and denominator's spots) and multiply the two fractions.
Answer:y=x/3
Step-by-step explanation:
x-3y=0
or,x=3y
y=x/3
Answer:
cost of producing the 501st item = $9.92
Step-by-step explanation:
The function representing the cost is given by;
C(x) = 10000 + 90x - 0.08x²
To get the cost of producing the 501st item, we have to first find the cost of producing 500 items and then do the same for 501 items then subtract the values gotten.
Thus;
C(500) = 10000 + 90(500) - 0.08(500)²
C(500) = 10000 + 45000 - 20000
C(500) = $35000
Similarly;
C(501) = 10000 + 90(501) - 0.08(501)²
C(501) = 10000 + 45090 - 20080.08
C(501) = $35009.92
cost of producing the 501st item = C(501) - C(500) = 35009.92 - 35000 = $9.92
2/5+3/8= 31/40 therefore he still has 9/40 to go.
to get this you multiply the two denominators together
5x8=40 which is your denominator
then you cross multiply the two numerators
2x8=16
3x5=15
to get the final
15/40+16/40=31/40
and you are left with 9/40
