Answer:

<h2>S = 250/t</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the rate of change of sales is inversely proportional to the time t, this is expressed mathematically as ΔS ∝ 1/Δt

ΔS = k/Δt where k is the constant of proportionality

If ΔS = S₂-S₁ and Δt = t₂-t₁

S₂-S₁ = k/ t₂-t₁

If the sales after 2 and 4 weeks are 162 units and 287 units respectively, then when S₁  = 162, t₁ = 2 and when   S₂ = 287, t₂ = 4.

On substituting this values into the given functions, we will have;

287 - 162 = k/4-2

125 = k/2

cross multiplying

k = 125* 2

k = 250

Substituting k = 250 into the function ΔS = k/Δt

ΔS = 250/Δt

S = 250/t

<em>Hence the value of S as function of t when the sales after 2 and 4 weeks are 162 units and 287 units, respectively is expressed as S = 250/t</em>

Answer:

23.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have to use some trigonometry to work out angle XVW. Since we are working out angles all of the trigonometric functions will have to be to the ⁻¹. The first thing we need to identify is will formula will we use out of the following:

Sin⁻¹ = Opposite ÷ Hypotenuse

Tan⁻¹ = Opposite ÷ Adjacent

Cos⁻¹ = Adjacent ÷ Hypotenuse

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

10 = Hypotenuse

4 = Opposite

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We know which formula to use because the length won't be in the triangle for example we will be using the Sin triangle because we don't have an adjacent. If we don't have an adjacent then the other formula's won't work.

Now we substitute in the values to find the value of angle XVW

Sin⁻¹ = Opposite ÷ Hypotenuse

Sin⁻¹ = 4 ÷ 10

The value of angle XVW is 23.57817848

For what value of x is the function g(x)=x/1-x NOT defined?
VMariaS [17]

The function is definately defined at x=0 but not x=1.

But its just one part of the coordinate (x,y).

If the value of y or f(x) is considered, you'll see that it is never possible to attain f(x)=0. In other terms (x,y)= (0,0) is not a defined point in the graph of the function because the graph doesnt pass through that point.

Now I hope you understood what I meant!

Conclusion- The above function is not defined at all points in the space having the abscissa or x=1 in the coordinate and also at ordinate or y=0 in the coordinate.nation:
