Let "a" and "b" represent the values of the first and second purchases, respectively.
  0.40*(original price of "a") = $10
  (original price of "a") = $10/0.40 = $25.00 . . . . divide by 0.40 and evaluate
  a = (original price of "a") - $10 . . . . . . Julia paid the price after the discount
  a = $25.00 -10.00 = $15.00

At the other store,
  $29 = 0.58b
  $29/0.58 = b = $50 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of b and evaluate

Then Julia's total spending is
  a + b = $15.00 +50.00 = $65.00

Julia spent $65 in all at the two stores.

Answer:

  • P = -390t +48,000
  • P = 43,710 in 2003

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are given two pairs of (t, P): (0, 48000), (8, 44880). We can use these with the 2-point form of the equation of a line:

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

  P = (44880 -48000)/(8 -0)(t -0) +48000

  P = -3120/8t +48000

  P = -390t +48000

__

B) In 2003, t = 11, so we have ...

  P = -390(11) +48000 = 43710

The population in 2003 is predicted to be 43,710.

The school that Emily goes to is selling tickets to a fall musical. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold24 adult tic
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of one adult ticket.

Let y represent the price of one student ticket.

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 24 adult tickets and 3 student tickets for a total of $223.00. This means that

24x + 3y = 223 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

The school took in $152 on the second day by selling 7 adult tickets and 6 student tickets. This means that

7x + 6y = 152 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes

144x + 18y = 1338

21x + 18y = 456

Subtracting, it becomes

123x = 882

x = 882/123

x = 7.17

Substituting x = 7.17 into equation 2, it becomes

7 × 7.17 + 6y = 152

50.19 + 6y = 152

6y = 152 - 50.19 = 101.81

y = 101.81/6 = 16.97

The function c(x) = 0.5x+70
Lisa [10]

Given:

The cost function

c(x) = 0.5x + 70

where x is the number of miles the truck has been driven.

Graph:

We must first construct the table. We start by manually calculating the valueof c(x) for every x starting with x = 0.

We may take any real values of x ≥ 0 to make our table. Here, I have chosen x = 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70.

We then plot the points of x on the x-axis and of c(x) on the y (or vertical) axis.

The graph as well as the table have been uploaded as images.

Concept & Explanation:

<u>Domain</u> - the domain of the given function is the set of all the values that x can take for the function to be valid.

<u>Range</u> - the range of the given function is the set of all the values c(x) will take for each value of x in the domain.

Here, x represents the number of miles driven and c(x) represents the cost of renting. Clearly, neither x nor c(x) can be negative. Moreover, both these values will be real numbers.

Note that x may be zero (if the renter doesn't drive the truck at all) or x may be positive.

Taking the case when x = 0,

c(x)=0.5(0) +70 = 70

Therefore, we have identified the lower limits of both the domain and the range.

Seeing as the moving company has not imposed an upper limit on the number of miles that can be written, we can not reasonable identify any upper bounds for the domain and range.

So, domain is the set 0 ≤ x < ∞

And, range is the set 70 ≤ c(x) < ∞
