Answer:
The answer you are looking for is x = 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
D( x )
x = 0
x = 0
x = 0
x in (-oo:0) U (0:+oo)
72/x = 3.6/0.015 // - 3.6/0.015
72/x-(3.6/0.015) = 0
72/x-240 = 0
72*x^-1 = 240 // : 72
x^-1 = 10/3
-1 < 0
1/(x^1) = 10/3 // * x^1
1 = 10/3*x^1 // : 10/3
3/10 = x^1
x = 3/10
x = 3/10
Counterexample is an example with a negative connotation. Whereas an example may be used to support or illustrate a claim, a counterexample is used to refute an assertion.
<u>Statement:</u> All whole numbers are even.
<u>Counterexample:</u> Consider numbers 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21,.... These numbers are whole numbers, but not even numbers.
You give an example of whole numbers that are not necessarily even.
I got the same thing $13.43
Points are (T,S) = (time, pounds), so you have (3.5, 605) and (10, 2100). Slope is (2100-605) / (10-3.5) = 1495/6.5 = 230. T is the independent variable (like x normally is in linear equations), so that narrows it down to choice A or choice D due to the slope. You can solve for b in y=mx+b or S = mT + b by plugging in one of the points: 2100 = 230(10) + b ===> b = -200. Therefore S = 230T - 200; S(12) = 230*12 - 200 = 2560 lbs [B]
<span>2) (a) Plug in 10 for x </span>
<span>(b) 10000 = 298.94x + 3215.48 </span>
<span>6784.52 = 298.94x </span>
<span>x = 6784.52/298.94 = 22.7 ===> in year 2023</span>
