Answer:

The answer to your question is k = 8, 9, 10, 11, ..........

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Number of buttons = 29

She collects 12 buttons every year

number of years she will have more than 120 buttons

Process

1.- Write an inequality to solve this problem

             29 + 12k ≥ 120

2.- Solve for k

                      12k ≥ 120 - 29

                      12k ≥ 91

                          k ≥ 91/12

                          k ≥ 7.6  

3.- Conclusion

                          k must be higher than 7.6 but look for whole numbers

                          k = 8, 9, 10, 11.......

For Felicia to have at least 120 buttons, k will have to be greater than or equal to 8.

Here's how to find that.

I found it's easiest to create an X,Y table (or K,L table as shown in the image below). The X (K) value starts at 0 (the start of collection) and continues to go up by by 1 to account for every year she collects buttons, while the Y (L) value starts at 29 (starting value of buttons) and continues to go up by 12 each year.

By creating this X,Y table, you'll find that 8 years is when she will have finally collected at least 120 buttons. Below is an image of the graph to help elaborate further.

I hope this helps!

Match each operation involving f(x) and g(x) to its answer
eimsori [14]

Answer:

(g-f) (-1)= sqrt(15)

(f/g)(-1)= 0

(g+f)(2)=sqrt(3)-3

(g*f)(2)=-3*sqrt(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to eval the expressions given in the point indicated.

Lets start by the first equation

(g-f)(-1)= g(-1) - f(-1)= \sqrt{11-4*(-1)}    - 1 +(-1)^{2} = \sqrt{15}

Now, lest continue with the others

(f/g)(-1)= f(-1)/g(-1)= (1-1)/sqrt(15)=0

(g+f)(2)=g(2)+f(2)=sqrt(3)-3

(g*f)(2)=g(2)*f(2)=sqrt(3)*(-3)=-3sqrt(3)
