Answer:
61.84%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of the box be x. Since the price of the box and the pen is Rs 80, the pen's price can be represented as 80 - x. The box is sold at a ten percent profit, and an added ten percent is equal to 1.1. Therefore, the price the box sells at is 1.1(x). A 20% loss is the same a keeping 80% or multiplying by 0.8. This means the pen sold at 0.8(80 - x). Now, we are given the box went for Rs 28 more than the pen, so we can create an equation:
1.1x = 0.8(80 - x) + 28
We can simplify and solve:
1.1x = 64 - 0.8x + 28
1.9x = 92
x = 92/1.9
x = 920/19
The cost of the box after the increase would be 1.1(920/19) and the pen would be 0.8(80 - 920/19).
The sum of these two can be written as a percent x of 80.
80x = 0.8(80 - 920/19) + 1.1(920/19)
80x = 64 - 0.8(920/19) + 1.1(920/9)
80x = 64 - 0.3(920/19)
80x = 64 - 276/19
80x = 940/19
x = 940/1520
x = 0.6184
This is 61.84%
Put the values of x to the equations of the functions:
1. f(9) → x = 9; f(x) = -3x + 10
f(9) = -3(9) + 10 = -27 + 10 = -17
2. f(-2) → x = -2; f(x) = 4x - 1
f(-2) = 4(-2) - 1 = -8 - 1 = -9
3. f(-5) → x = -5; f(x) = -2x + 8
f(-5) = -2(-5) + 8 = 10 + 8 = 18

Answer:
x = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the axis of symmetry is between the 2 x intercepts, we can find it by finding the average of the x-coordinates of the 2 points.
(-7 + 10) / 2
3/2
= 1.5
So, the axis of symmetry is at x = 1.5
