Full question:
A transaction is positive if there is a sale and negative when there is a return. Each time a customer uses credit card for a transaction, the credit company charges Isabel. The credit company charges 1.5% of each sale and a fee of 0.5 % for returns
Let x represent the amount of a transaction and let f(x) represent the amount Isabel is charged for the transaction. Write a function that expresses f(x)
Answer:
f(x)= 0.015(x)
f(x)= 0.005(x)
Explanation:
If Isabel makes a sale, she has a positive transaction and therefore is charged 1.5%(which is 0.015) by the credit company for the transaction. If the product is returned, it is a negative transaction and the credit company charges 0.5%(which is 0.005) for the transaction. The functions for positive and negative transactions would be different as indicated in the answer since transactions( given by x) are different- positive and negative.

Answer:
11 1/2 teaspoons
Step-by-step explanation:
1 2/4 basil= 1.5 tsp If you multiply this by two to double the recipe you will have 3 teaspoons of basil.
1/4*2= 2/4 pepper
4*2=8 parsley
After you double everything you need to add them together:
3+2/4+8
Which brings you to the final answer of 11 2/4 teaspoons or if you simplify it.... 11 1/2 teaspoons
Answer:
$120
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the information in the statement and taking into account that the price for renting the limo is fixed, you can say that the cost of renting the limo for 12 people is equal to the cost of renting it for ten. Then, the cost for 12 people is 12 for the cost per person which is equal to 10 for the cost per person and you can express it as follow:
x is the cost per person when the limo is rented by 10 people.
12*(x-2)=10*x
You can solve for x:
12x-24=10x
12x-10x=24
2x=24
x=24/2
x=12
Now that you have the cost per person when the limo is rented by 10 people, you can multiply this value for 10 to find the cost of renting the limo for the evening:
12*10=120
The answer is that the limo cost $120 for the evening.
