Complete Question

Jessica pays a flat rate of $70 for her cell phone and is charged $0.05 for every text she sends. Jessica wants to spend less than $80.00 per month on her cell phone. Write and solve an inequality that shows how many text messages Jessica must limit herself to in order to keep her monthly bill less than $80.00.

Answer:

<em>Inequality: </em>70 + 0.05x < 80

<em>Solution: </em>x < 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the minimum number of SMS.

If 1 SMS is charged at $0.05, then x SMS would be charged at $0.05x

Considering that she pays a flat rate of $70.

The inequality to represent the minimum number of SMS she needs to send is:

70 + 0.05x < 80

To solve this inequality, follow the following steps

Collect like terms

0.05x < 80  - 70

0.05x < 10

Divide through by 0.05

0.05x/0.05 < 10/0.05

x < 10/0.05

x < 200

The solution to the inequality that shows how many text messages Jessica must limit herself to in order to keep her monthly bill less than $80.00 is x < 200.

A burro is standing near a cactus. The burro is 58 in. tall. His shadow is 4 ft long. The shadow of the cactus is 8 ft long. Wha
Sever21 [200]

To find the height of the cactus, make a ratio.

58 inches divided by 4 feet equals x inches divided by 8 feet.

58/4 = x/8

14.5 = x/8

116 = x

The height of the cactus is 116 inches.

Please help with the attached question. Thanks

Answer:

Choice A) F(x) = 3\sqrt{x + 1}.

Step-by-step explanation:

What are the changes that would bring G(x) to F(x)?

  • Translate G(x) to the left by 1 unit, and
  • Stretch G(x) vertically (by a factor greater than 1.)

G(x) = \sqrt{x}. The choices of F(x) listed here are related to G(x):

  • Choice A) F(x) = 3\;G(x+1);
  • Choice B) F(x) = 3\;G(x-1);
  • Choice C) F(x) = -3\;G(x+1);
  • Choice D) F(x) = -3\;G(x-1).

The expression in the braces (for example x as in G(x)) is the independent variable.

To shift a function on a cartesian plane to the left by a units, add a to its independent variable. Think about how (x-a), which is to the left of x, will yield the same function value.

Conversely, to shift a function on a cartesian plane to the right by a units, subtract a from its independent variable.

For example, G(x+1) is 1 unit to the left of G(x). Conversely, G(x-1) is 1 unit to the right of G(x). The new function is to the left of G(x). Meaning that F(x) should should add 1 to (rather than subtract 1 from) the independent variable of G(x). That rules out choice B) and D).

  • Multiplying a function by a number that is greater than one will stretch its graph vertically.
  • Multiplying a function by a number that is between zero and one will compress its graph vertically.
  • Multiplying a function by a number that is between -1 and zero will flip its graph about the x-axis. Doing so will also compress the graph vertically.
  • Multiplying a function by a number that is less than -1 will flip its graph about the x-axis. Doing so will also stretch the graph vertically.

The graph of G(x) is stretched vertically. However, similarly to the graph of this graph G(x), the graph of F(x) increases as x increases. In other words, the graph of G(x) isn't flipped about the x-axis. G(x) should have been multiplied by a number that is greater than one. That rules out choice C) and D).

Overall, only choice A) meets the requirements.

Since the plot in the question also came with a couple of gridlines, see if the points (x, y)'s that are on the graph of F(x) fit into the expression y = F(x) = 3\sqrt{x - 1}.
