After factoring $3x^3-27x=0$ the solutions are x=0 , x=3, x= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve by factoring:

$3x^3-27x=0$

Solving:

$3x^3-27x=0$

Taking 3x common:

$3x(x^2-9)=0$

Now using formula $a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)$

$3x((x)^2-(3)^2)=0\\3x(x-3)(x+3)=0$

$3x=0\,\,and\,\,x+3=0\,\,and\,\,x-3=0\\x=0\,\,and\,\,x=-3\,\,and\,\,x=3\\$

So, After factoring $3x^3-27x=0$ the solutions are x=0 , x=3, x= -3

A line is drawn through (–4, 3) and (4, 3). Which describes whether or not the line represents a direct variation? The line repr

Dovator [93]

Answer:

Line does not represent direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line goes thru the origin, it represents direct variation. Otherwise it does not.

Start by finding the slope of this line:

As we move from (-4,3) to (4,3), x increases by 8 but y does not change. Thus, the slope is 0/8, or just 0. Thus, the equation of this line is y = 3, which does NOT go thru the origin; thus, the points given do NOT represent direct variation.

A company is selling toothpicks. It costs $0.01 to produce each toothpick and a fixed cost of $60 a month for the company. If th

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

6,000 toothpicks

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are trying to evaluate the number of toothpicks a company must sell to ensure that the money spent on production is exactly equal to revenue from sales.

What we do is this!

Let’s assign a variable to represent the number of tooth picks sold and produced by the company. Let us call this number x.

First, we evaluate the total amount spent on production of x toothpicks. From the question, we can see that the cost of producing a single toothpick is $0.01, hence, to produce x toothpicks, amount spent asides the fixed cost is $0.01 * x = $0.01x

Now, the total cost on production which includes the fixed cost of the company would be $(0.01x + 60). This is the total amount spent to produce the goods.

Now revenue from sales for x toothpicks at $0.02 each is $0.02x

Since we are looking to Breakeven, we equate the costs to the revenue.

0.01x + 60 = 0.02x

0.02x-0.01x = 60

0.01x = 60

x = 60/0.01 = 6,000 toothpicks

Which function is f(x) equal to f^-1(x)?

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

c. f(x) x+1/x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we need to check each answer one by one until we find the right one.

y = (x+6)/(x-6)

switch x and y

x = (y+6)/(y-6)

solve for y

x(y-6) = y+6

xy - 6x = y+6

y(x-1) = 6x+6

y = (6x+6) /(x-1) = 6(x+1)/(x-1)

f^-1(x) = 6(x+1)/(x-1)

y = (x+2)/(x-2)

switch x and y

x = (y+2)/(y-2)

solve for y

x(y-2) = y+2

xy -2x = y+2

y(x-1) = 2x+2

y = (2x+2)/(x-1)

f^-1(x) = 2(x+1)/(x-1)

y = (x+1)/(x-1) ------ correct one

switch x and y

x = (y+1)/(y-1)

solve for y

x(y-1) = y+1

xy - x = y+1

y(x-1) = x+1

y = (x+1)/(x-1)

f^-1(x) = (x+1)/(x-1)

f(x) = f^-1(x)
