To calculate the employee raise, we multiply how much he is making by the percent of his raise.

Raise= 14.41*7.5%

Change to decimal 14.41*.075

Raise=.75

His raise is $10.80

The production cost, represented by y, of smart phone devices are equal to the product of computing components (a) and the squar

Marta_Voda [28]

The production cost is an illustration of a quadratic function

<h3>How to determine the equation</h3>

We have the following parameters:

Computing components (a)
Number of devices (x),
Labor (b)
Savings on reusable material (c)

Using the instructions in the question, the equation of the production cost would be:

$y =ax^2 + bx -c$

Hence, the production cost is $y =ax^2 + bx -c$

<h3>Change the subject of the equation</h3>

In (a), we have:

$y =ax^2 + bx -c$

Subtract bx - c from both sides

$y - bx + c = ax^2$

Divide through by x^2

$a = \frac{y - bx + c}{x^2}$

Hence, the equation that represents the computing component is $a = \frac{y - bx + c}{x^2}$

Write one number that is a factor of 13.

maw [93]

Answer: 1 and 13

Step-by-step explanation: To find the factors of 13, begin by dividing 13 by 1 which gives us 13. This tells us that 1 and 13 are factors of 13.

13 is a prime number which means it only has two factors which are 1 and 13.

8/x-5 - 9/x-4 = 5/x^2-9x+20

_______________

Solve the equation:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8}{x-5}-\dfrac{9}{x-4}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}\qquad\qquad(x\ne 5~and~x\ne 4)}$

Reduce the fractions at the left side so that they have the same denominator:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8(x-4)}{(x-5)(x-4)}-\dfrac{9(x-5)}{(x-4)(x-5)}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32}{x^2-4x-5x+20}-\dfrac{9x-45}{x^2-4x-5x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32}{x^2-9x+20}-\dfrac{9x-45}{x^2-9x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32-(9x-45)}{x^2-9x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}$

Numerators must be equal:

$\mathsf{8x-32-(9x-45)=5}\\\\
\mathsf{8x-32-9x+45=5}\\\\
\mathsf{8x-9x=5+32-45}\\\\
\mathsf{-x=-8}\\\\
\mathsf{x=8}\quad\longleftarrow\quad\textsf{this is the solution.}$

I hope this helps. =)
