Answer:

<h2>36 bottles for $4.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the rate, we divide both numbers, for example 24 dollars, and 3.

Put it into a Fraction: 24/3.

Divide: 24 / 3 = 8.

We do the same thing for the next equation.

Put it into a Fraction: 36/4.

Divide: 36/4 = 9.

We can compare or subtract.

The number has to be bigger to make it the better buy.

Since 8 is smaller than 9, it's true.

So: 8 < 9. That's good.

We can subtract. It cannot be lower than positive 1.

9 - 8 = 1.

It's correct.

Therefore, the answer is 9 bottles per every dollar.

If you have any questions, feel free to comment below.

Best of Luck to you.

Use the image below to answer the following question. Find the value of sin x® and cos yº What relationship do the ratios of sin

Flauer [41]

Answer:

sin(x) and cos(y) are equal and have ratio of 1 : 1

First find the missing hypotenuse using Pythagoras theorem:

a² + b² = c²

12² + 5² = c²

c = √144+25

c = 13

using sine rule:

$sin(x) = \dfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

$sin(x) = \dfrac{5}{13}$

using cosine rule:

$cos(y) = \dfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

$cos(y) = \dfrac{5}{13}$

Answer:

$\large\boxed{1.\ f^{-1}(x)=4\log(x\sqrt[4]2)}\\\\\boxed{2.\ f^{-1}(x)=\log(x^5+5)}\\\\\boxed{3.\ f^{-1}(x)=\sqrt{4^{x-1}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\log_ab=c\iff a^c=b\\\\n\log_ab=\log_ab^n\\\\a^{\log_ab}=b\\\\\log_aa^n=n\\\\\log_{10}a=\log a\\=============================$

$1.\\y=\left(\dfrac{5^x}{2}\right)^\frac{1}{4}\\\\\text{Exchange x and y. Solve for y:}\\\\\left(\dfrac{5^y}{2}\right)^\frac{1}{4}=x\qquad\text{use}\ \left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^n=\dfrac{a^n}{b^n}\\\\\dfrac{(5^y)^\frac{1}{4}}{2^\frac{1}{4}}=x\qquad\text{multiply both sides by }\ 2^\frac{1}{4}\\\\\left(5^y\right)^\frac{1}{4}=2^\frac{1}{4}x\qquad\text{use}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\5^{\frac{1}{4}y}=2^\frac{1}{4}x\qquad\log_5\ \text{of both sides}$

$\log_55^{\frac{1}{4}y}=\log_5\left(2^\frac{1}{4}x\right)\qquad\text{use}\ a^\frac{1}{n}=\sqrt[n]{a}\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}y=\log(x\sqrt[4]2)\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\y=4\log(x\sqrt[4]2)$

$--------------------------\\2.\\y=(10^x-5)^\frac{1}{5}\\\\\text{Exchange x and y. Solve for y:}\\\\(10^y-5)^\frac{1}{5}=x\qquad\text{5 power of both sides}\\\\\bigg[(10^y-5)^\frac{1}{5}\bigg]^5=x^5\qquad\text{use}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\(10^y-5)^{\frac{1}{5}\cdot5}=x^5\\\\10^y-5=x^5\qquad\text{add 5 to both sides}\\\\10^y=x^5+5\qquad\log\ \text{of both sides}\\\\\log10^y=\log(x^5+5)\Rightarrow y=\log(x^5+5)$

$--------------------------\\3.\\y=\log_4(4x^2)\\\\\text{Exchange x and y. Solve for y:}\\\\\log_4(4y^2)=x\Rightarrow4^{\log_4(4y^2)}=4^x\\\\4y^2=4^x\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\y^2=\dfrac{4^x}{4}\qquad\text{use}\ \dfrac{a^n}{a^m}=a^{n-m}\\\\y^2=4^{x-1}\Rightarrow y=\sqrt{4^{x-1}}$

there were a total of 125 cars at a car dealership. A salesperson sold 68 of the cars in one month. Write and solve an inequalit

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Let c represent the number of cars that the salesman has left to sell.

68 + c ≤ 125
68-68 + c ≤ 125 -68
c≤57
The solution is c ≤ 57. The salesman has at most 57 cars left to sell

Answer:
68 + c ≤ 125; c ≤ 57 cars or less left to sell.
