X = number of loads
company A : 20x + 8
company B : 24x + 4

20x + 8 = 20(5) + 8 = 100 + 8 = 108 (company A)
24x + 4 = 24(5) + 4 = 120 + 4 = 124 (company B)
company A charges less

20x + 8 = 20(9) + 8 = 188
24x + 4 = 24(9) + 4 = 220
220 - 188 = $ 32 bucks is saved by using company A

Answer:

Part A : 20x + 8 and 24x + 4

Part B : Company A charges less and compared to company B.

Part C : Using the services of company A saving is $32

Step-by-step explanation:

Jake is comparing the prices of two laundry service companies.

Part A:

Company A charges $20 per load and an additional $8 as service charges.

So the expression that represents the charges = 20x + 8

Similarly for company B the expression will be charges = 24x + 4

Here x represents the number of loads of the laundry.

Part B:

In this part we have to compare the charges for 5 loads of the laundry.

Charges of company A : 20x + 8 = 20×5 + 8 = $108

Charges of company B : 24x + 4 = 24×5 + 4 = $124

Therefore, company A charges less.

Part C :

Company A charges for 9 loads = 20×9 + 8 = $188

and company B charges for 9 loads = 24×9 + 4 = $220

Saving by using the services of company A instead of company B

= 220 - 188

= $32

Form a sequence that has two arithmetic means between 13 and 88.
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Correct choice is A

Step-by-step explanation:

For the numbers 13 and 88, find the difference 88-13:

since 88-13=75 and \dfrac{75}{3}=25 (two arithmetic means tells you there will be three intervals), two arithmetic means will be

  • 13+25=38;
  • 38+25=63.

The only correct sequence is 13, 38, 63, 88.

Which of the following pairs of functions are inverses of each other?
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange each function to solve for x.

Switch x and y,

The resulting equation is the inverse function.

A:

f(x) = y = 5+x

x = y-5

y = x-5

f⁻¹(x) = x-5

g(x) = 5-x ≠ f⁻¹(x)

g(x) is not the inverse of f(x).

:::::

B:

f(x) = y = 2x-9

x = (y+9)/2

y = (x+9)/2

f⁻¹(x) = (x+9)/2

g(x) = (x+9)/2 = f⁻¹(x)

g(x) is the inverse of f(x).

:::::

C:

f(x) = y = 2/x - 6

x = 2/(y+6)

y = 2/(x+6)

f⁻¹(x) = 2/(x+6)

g(x) = (x+6)/2 ≠ f⁻¹(x)

:::::

D:

f(x) = y = x/3 + 4

x = 3y - 12

y = 3x - 12

f⁻¹(x) = 3x - 12

g(x) = 3x - 4 ≠ f⁻¹(x)

g(x) is not the inverse of f(x).

!!please help!!<br>I have an F in this class and really need to get it up!​
lisov135 [29]

I may be wrong, I think I remember how to do this. A straight line has an angle of 180, so y would be 133, making the area 55571.63u. (u = whatever unit is measuring the circle.) If x = 1/20 of the area, then the red area = 2,778.5u or 2,779u. I hope this helps, but I honestly don't remember how I would find x, and I don't want you to get the question wrong.
