For which values of x is the inequality 3(1 + x) > x + 17 true?

Answer:  The correct option is

(D) 8 and 9.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to select the correct values of x for which the following inequality is true :

3(1+x)>x+17~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

To select the correct values of x, we must solve the given inequality.

From inequality (i), we have

3(1+x)>x+17\\\\\Rightarrow 3+3x>x+17\\\\\Rightarrow 3x-x>17-3\\\\\Rightarrow 2x>14\\\\\Rightarrow x>\dfrac{14}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x>7.

Since the value of x is strictly greater than 7, so the correct vaues will be 8 and 9.

Option (D) is CORRECT.

Equation to find original price if sale price of $429 is a 34% discount
Burka [1]

Answer:

The original price is $650

Step-by-step explanation:

There's an actual algebra method for this, but this is my method because I find it way easier to remember.

Since the most you can discount out of an item is 100% (well, it's considered free then) let's subtract 100 - 34, which is 66.

Now, turn it into a decimal because it makes the numbers easier- 0.66.

Since when you're finding the discount of an original price, you multiply the original price by the discount- instead for finding the original price for a discounted item we divide $429 by 0.66 instead, since when you divide a number by another number that's under 1 the quotient is a larger number.

So, 429 ÷ 0.66 = 650.

Therefore, the original price of the $429 sale price for a 34% discount is $650.

Write a cosine function that has a midline of 2, an amplitude of 4 and a period of pi/2.
exis [7]

y = Acos(Bx) + D;

D = 4, A = 2. Now T = 2π/B = 5π/8, B = 2π/(5π/8) = 16/5

WE get y = 2cos(16/5x) + 4
