Alright, this one is a little interesting... Let's perform some tests to figure out what is happening:
f(-10) = -(1/(-10)^3) = -(1/-1000) = 1/1000  (positive)
f(-5) = -(1/(-5)^3) = -(1/-125) = 1/125 (positive, bigger than the last one)
f(-1) = -(1/(-1)^3) = -(1/-1) = 1 (positive, bigger than the last one)
f(-0.1) = -(1/(-0.1)^3) = -(1/-0.001) = 1/0.001 = 1000 (positive, bigger than the last one)
f(0) = -(1/0^3) = undefined!
f(0.1) = -(1/(0.1)^3) = -(1/0.001) = -1/0.001 = -1000 (negative)
f(1) = -(1/1^3) = -(1/1) = -1 (negative, but bigger than last one)

It's a little confusing with the undefined part at x = 0. What I can say is this, it is increasing from -10 up to 0, something weird happens at 0 and it resets, and starts increasing from 0 up to 0.1. 

I guess A would be the best answer?

You increase the size of a page by 30%. Then you decrease it by 30%. What is the size of the page now?
kotegsom [21]
Lets use 1 to solve this problem because it is easiest to show. 

Multiply 1 by 1.3 for a 30% increase (1*1.3=1.3). 

Then multiply 1.3 by .7 for a 30% decrease. (1.3*.7=.91)  

Therefore the page had a 9% reduction from its original size or is 91% of its original size.

Answer:

The difference in amount = $430

Step-by-step explanation:

1- Annual contract:

The annual contract means a contract for 12 months. There is a month penalty for breaking the lease.  

This means that, if you left after 8 months, you will have to pay for 10 month.

Total paid = monthly payment * 10

Total paid = 535 * 10 = $5350

2- Month-to-month contract:

You will only paid for the 8 months you stayed,

Total paid = monthly payment * 8

Total paid = 615 * 8 = $4920

3- Getting the difference:

We can note that a month-month contract is a better option if you intend to stay for only 8 months

Difference = 5350 - 4920 = $430

Hope this helps :)

explain how the position of the decimal point changes in a quote as you divide by increasing powers of 10
Marianna [84]
If you have 20/10, that equals 2. Then if you move the decimal place over 1 place then you have 2.  If you divide 2 again by 10, then move the decimal place over in another place, it is equaling 0.2.
