Mathematics

AVprozaik [17]3 years ago
4 0
Given that the numbers are consecutive:
let the first number be x, the second number will be x+1, the third number be x+2
thus the sum of the numbers will be:
x+(x+1)+(x+2)=-381
3x+3=-381
3x=-381-3
3x=-384
x=-128
thus the first number is -128, the second number is -127 and the third number is -126

A spice store charges $2.75 for 25 grams of paprika. It also charges 5% of the purchase price for shipping any order
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Part a) The expression is 3.2445x

Part b) Customer cannot buy 2.5 ounces of paprika and have it shipped for less than $8.00

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

A spice store charged 2.75 for 25 grams of paprika. It also charges 5% of the purchase price for shipping any order.

Part a)  Write and simplify an expression to determine the cost of buying and shipping x ounces of paprika. Use 1 ounce = 28 grams

Part b) Can a customer buy 2.5 ounces of paprika and have it shipped for less than 8.00? Explain

step 1

Convert grams to ounces

Remember that

1\ oz=28\ g

To convert grams to ounces divide by 28

25\ g=25/28= 0.89\ oz

The unit price is

2.75/0.89=3.09\frac{\$}{oz}

Let

x ----> the number of ounces of paprika

y ----> the cost of buying and shipping x ounces of paprika

5%=5/100=0.05

y=3.09x+(3.09x)0.05\\y=3.09x[1+0.05]\\y=3.2445x

Part b) For x=2.5 oz

substitute in the equation

y=3.2445(2.5)=\$8.11

\$8.11 > \$8.00

therefore

Customer cannot buy 2.5 ounces of paprika and have it shipped for less than $8.00

Natalija [7]

Answer:

  the cubic does not exceed the quadratic until x > 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The attached graph plots the two expressions. The two are equal at x=8. Below that value the expression 7x^2 is greater. Above that value, the expression 7x^3 -x^2 is greater.

_____

<em>Comment on the question</em>

The directive to "compare the volumes" does not tell anything about the sort of comparison you are expecting. We note that the expression x^3-x^2 is zero or less up to the point where x=1, so we wonder exactly what it is supposed to be modeling. Any real volume will not be negative.

For small values of x, the quadratic is quite a bit larger. However, we know the cubic will grow larger than any quadratic for large values of x. So, the comparison you get will depend on the domain of interest—which is not specified.
