There are two functions that can be used to describe the percent of people 25 years and older who have completed at least high s

chool. For both functions f(x)=0.44x + 87.5 and g(x)=0.008x^2 + 0.42x + 87.5 is the number of years since 2008, and any y (or f(x) or g(x)) is the percent of people 25 and older completing at least high school. Assume that the trend of g(x) continues. Find g(15) and describe in words what this means.

Answer:

g(15)=93.8\%

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of years since 2008,

g(x) ----> the percent of people 25 years and older who have completed at least high school

we know that

g(x)=0.008x^2+0.42x+87.5

so

For x=15 years since 2008

substitute

g(15)=0.008(15)^2+0.42(15)+87.5=93.8\%

That means

In the year 2023 (2008+15) the percent of people 25 and older completing at least high school will be 93.8%

A store offers 20% off all items. If x is the original purchase price, which expression represents the final price with the disc
denis23 [38]

Answer:

B & D

Step-by-step explanation:

We use percents in decimal form to multiply it with the price. We convert percents into decimals by dividing the percent number by 100. For example, 78% divided by 100 becomes 0.78.

There are two ways to look at it:

  • For finding the price we pay during a sale, we focus on the percent we pay. If 22% off is the sale, then we spend 78% or 100-22=78. If 20% off is the sale, then we pay 80% or 0.80. Multiply that by x an unknown price and we have 0.8x.
  • We can find the percent off by multiplying the price by the percent conversion. So 20% is 0.20. Then subtract it from the original price to find the leftover that we pay. This is x-0.2x.

Rewrite this number sentence 50 1/2 divided by 1/4 using multiplication
Shalnov [3]
This division question is asking how many 1/4 you can fit into 50 1/2.

We can fit 4 of them into 1 whole (4 x 1/4 = 1)
We can fit 8 of them into 2 wholes (8 x 1/4 = 2)

and so on.

But we have 50 1/2 wholes, so we would need 50 1/2 x 4.

The new number sentence is 50 1/2 x 4.
