Shopping...

there is a sale on a shirt for 1/3 off, but the shirt costs 5 dollars. You would then need to convert the fraction to a decimal to find the percentage you would get off of the original price.

Write an algebraic equation to match each graph. (These graphs are not drawn to scale!) please help! i will make brainliest answ
ddd [48]

Answer:

the expression of this function is:

f(x)=|x-1|-1

Step-by-step explanation:

This graph corresponds to an absolute value function, which as you can see has the minimum (vertex) at the point (1, -1) on the plane, and also that goes through the origin of coordinates (0, 0)

therefore, notice that from the point (0, 0) to (1, -1) there is a slope of "-1" which is going to characterize the steepness of the x- variable that resides inside the absolute value function. since the vertex has also moved from the characteristic (0, 0) in the function:

f(x)=|x|

then we have to include a horizontal shift to the right in one unit (by subtracting 1 units from x), and a vertical shift  downwards one unit (by subtracting 1 from the full absolute value expression) in order to shift the vertex to the position (1, -1):

f(x)=|x-1|-1

What is the approximate surface area of a cylinder with a radius of 3 inches and a height of 10 inches?
xxMikexx [17]
245in^2

Curved surface = 2pi x r x h = 2 x 3.1 x 3 x 10 = 186
2 ends = 2 x (Pi x r x r) = 2 x 3.1 x 3 x 3 = 55.8
Total area = 186 + 55.8 = 242in^2 approximately

Danny solved the inequality - 8x > 56 and got x>-7. Is this correct and if not, what mistake did Danny
aniked [119]

Answer:

Danny did not reverse the symbol.

Hence, the correct answer is: x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality

- 8x > 56

We know that when we multiply both sides by -1, the 'inequality' gets reverse.

i.e.

\left(-8x\right)\left(-1\right)

8x

Divide both sides by 8

\frac{8x}{8}

x

Therefore, Danny did not reverse the symbol.

Hence, the correct answer is: x

Please find the area
Vlada [557]

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a dotted line from b to e

as I've done

you will realize that abfe is a rectangle ,and bced is a trapezium

Area of abfe

=LW

=13ft(10ft)

=130ft^2

Area of bced

=1/2(sum of // sides )height

=1/2(eb+cd)h

h=16ft-10ft

h=6ft

A=1/2(13ft+6ft)×6ft

=19ft(3ft)

=57ft^2

Total areal =(57+130)ft^2

=187ft^2
