The dependent variable is the price because it depends on how many movies are rented. The independent variable would be the number of movies.

Answer:

B. price

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is linear and looks like this:

C(x) = 5.99x

where C(x) is the cost of x number of movies. The cost is the dependent variable, since it is dependent upon how many movies you rent at 5.99 each.

The graph of f(x) = x2 was transformed to create the graph of g(x) = (x − 7.5)2. Which of these describes this transformation?

QveST [7]

Answer:

A. A horizontal shift to the right 7.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacing x with x-7.5 shifts the graph 7.5 units to the <em>right</em>.

In general, g(x) = f(x-h)+k will shift h units right and k units up. In this problem there is no vertical shift.

Megan paid $2.52 in sales tax on an item that cost $36.00 before tax. At that rate, how much would she pay in sales tax for an i

jeyben [28]

Answer:

She would pay $2.80 in sales tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by proportions, using a rule of three.

Megan paid $2.52 in sales tax on an item that cost $36.00 before tax. How much in taxes for $40.00 before taxes?

$2.52 - $36.00

x - $40.00

Applying cross multiplication

$36x = 40*2.52$

$x = \frac{40*2.52}{36}$

$x = 2.8$

She would pay $2.80 in sales tax.

Determine the solution to the system of equations graphed below and explain

lawyer [7]

If x - 4 ≥ 0, then |x - 4| = x - 4, so

G(x) = F(x) ⇒ 3x + 2 = (x - 4) + 2

⇒ 3x + 2 = x - 2

⇒ 2x = -4

⇒ x = -2

Otherwise, if x - 4 < 0, then |x - 4| = -(x - 4), so

G(x) = F(x) ⇒ 3x + 2 = -(x - 4) + 2

⇒ 3x + 2 = -x + 6

⇒ 4x = 4

⇒ x = 1

However,

• when x = -2, we have

G(-2) = 3(-2) + 2 = -4

F(-2) = |-2 - 4| + 2 = 8

• when x = 1, we have

G(1) = 3(1) + 2 = 5

F(1) = |1 - 4| + 2 = 5

so only x = 1 is a solution to G(x) = F(x).
