Let assume x be the sale price

A clothing store advertises that it is having a 25% off sale.

The sale price with 25% discount is f(x) = sale price - 25% of sale price

f(x)= x - 0.25x = 0.75x

For one day only, the store advertises and additional savings of 10%.

The sale price with 10% discount is g(x) = sale price - 10% of sale price

g(x)= x - 0.10x = 0.90x

Use composition function

g(f(x)) = g( 0.75x) = 0.90(0.75x) = 0.675x

That is 0.675/100 = 67.5%

The total percent discount = 100% - 67.5% = 32.5%

what would be the sale price of a $40 sweater?

Here sale price x= 40

So we plug in 40 for x

g(f(40)) = g( 0.75(40)) = 0.90(0.75(40)) = 0.675(40) = 27

The sale price of sweater = $27

A concert cleanup crew has 6 workers and one cleanup kit.
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Option (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

At every 6 crew workers number of clean up kits required = 1

Therefore, for 1 crew worker number of kits required = \frac{1}{6}

And number of kits required for w workers = \frac{w}{6} = w ÷ 6

If w = 54

Number of kits required = \frac{54}{6}=9

If w = 60

Number of kits required = \frac{60}{6}=10

If w = 66

Number of kits required = \frac{66}{6}=11

Therefore, table given in Option (D) is the correct table.

The mapping diagram shows a functional relationship
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

f(4)=\frac{1}{2}

f(x) = 4 when x is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is the set of x values that make the function defined. Allowed x values for the function (mapping).

The Range is the set of y values that make the function defined. Allowed y values for the function (mapping).

  • Whenever we need to find f(a), suppose, then we look for "a" in the domain and see its corresponding value mapping in the range.
  • Whenever we will be given a value for f(x) = a, suppose, and we have to find "x", we look at the value a in the range and find corresponding x value in the domain.

Firstly, we need f(4), so we look for "4" in domain and see which number it corresponds to in range.

That is \frac{1}{2}

Thus,

f(4)=\frac{1}{2}

Next,

We want "x" value that gives us a "y" value of 4. We look for "4" in the range and see which value it corresponds to. That is "8". So,

f(8) = 4
