stellarik [79]

Answer:  Brian gets $39.2 more over Colin.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total tip amount = £78.40

The ratio of the share of tips for Pawl, Colin and Bria  is 2:1 :5.

Let tip amount for Pawl = 2x, tip amount for Colin = x , tip amount for Bria = 5x

Then, 2x+x+5x= 78.40

\Rightarrow\ 8x = 78.40\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{78.40}{8 }\\\\\Rightarrow x=9.8

Tip for Colin = $ 9.8 , Tip for Bria = 5($9.8)= $49

Difference = $(49-9.8) = $ 39.2

Hence, Brian gets $39.2 more over Colin.

A company offers you a job with an annual salary of $70 000 for the first year and a 5% raise every year after. Approximately ho
mariarad [96]

Answer:

$386794

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to find how much we get in 5 years, we need to base it off the initial salary value.

So in the first year we get.

$70,000

To get how much we get in the 2nd year we add the extra 5%.

2nd year salary = (1.05)70000

2nd year salary = 73500

Now we continue to do that until the 5th year

3rd year = (1.05)73500

3rd year = 77175

4th year = (1.05) + 77175

4th year = 81033.75

5th year = (1.05) + 81033.75

5th year = 85085.44

Now we add them all up to get the total.

70000 + 73500 + 77175 + 81033.75 + 85085.44 = $386794.19 or $386794

The quadratic function g(x) = ax^2 + bx + c has the complex roots (-5+9i) and (-5-9i). (you may assume that a = -1) what is the
gavmur [86]

Answer:

  • b = -10, c = -106

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>

<u>Quadratic function </u>

  • g(x) = ax^2 + bx + c

with the roots:

  • (-5+9i) and (-5-9i)
<h3>To find </h3>
  • b and c if a = -1
<h3>Solution</h3>

<u>As we know the sum of the roots is -b/a and the product of the roots is c/a. Substituting values and solving for b and c:</u>

  • (-5 + 9i) + (-5 - 9i) = -b/-1
  • -10 = b
  • b = -10

And

  • (-5 + 9i)(-5 - 9i) = c/-1
  • (-5)² - (9i)² = -c
  • 25 - 81(-1) = -c
  • - c = 25 + 81
  • - c = 106
  • c = -106

g(x) = -x² -10x - 106

Must a function this is decreasing over a given interval always be negative over the same interval? Explain
aleksklad [387]

It is certainly possible for a function decreasing over a certain interval to be negative, but no rule that says it must be. On the other hand, where the function is decreasing, the rate of change of the function must be negative.
