you are considering 2 jobs. one job pays $250 per week, plus 4.5% commission on all sales. The second job pays $1,800 per month

Hoochie [10]

The correct answer is A. Not only does $250 a week equal $1000 a month but the commission is also higher.

first job: $250wk = $1000 Month + .045 commission
= $12000 year + .045 commission
second job = $1800 Month + .03 commission
= $21600 year + .03 commission
commission based on sales of $1,000,000

1,000,000 times .045 = $45000
1,000,000 times .030 = $30000

FIRST JOB: $12,000 + $45,000 = $57,000
SECOND JOB: $21,600 + $30,000 = $51,600

The answer is definitely A.

Find the exponential function that passes through the points (2,80) and (5,5120)

juin [17]

Answer:

y = 5·4^x

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have two points, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), whose relationship can be described by the exponential function ...

y = a·b^x

you can find the values of 'a' and 'b' as follows.

Substitute the given points:

y1 = a·b^(x1)

y2 = a·b^(x1)

Divide the second equation by the first:

y2/y1 = ((ab^(x2))/(ab^(x1)) = b^(x2 -x1)

Take the inverse power (root):

(y2/y1)^(1/(x2 -x1) = b

Use this value of 'b' to find 'a'. Here, we have solved the first equation for 'a'.

a = y1/(b^(x1))

In summary:

b = (y2/y1)^(1/(x2 -x1))
a = y1·b^(-x1)

For the problem at hand, (x1, y1) = (2, 80) and (x2, y2) = (5, 5120).

b = (5120/80)^(1/(5-2)) = ∛64 = 4

a = 80·4^(-2) = 80/16 = 5

The exponential function is ...

y = 5·4^x

Answer:

$\textsf{A)} \quad x=-2, \:\:x=\dfrac{5}{2}$

$\textsf{B)} \quad \left(\dfrac{1}{4},-\dfrac{81}{8}\right)=(0.25,-10.125)$

C) See attachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

$f(x)=2x^2-x-10$

To factor a <u>quadratic</u> in the form $ax^2+bx+c$ <em> , </em>find two numbers that multiply to $ac$ and sum to $b$ :

$\implies ac=2 \cdot -10=-20$

$\implies b=-1$

Therefore, the two numbers are -5 and 4.

Rewrite $b$ as the sum of these two numbers:

$\implies f(x)=2x^2-5x+4x-10$

Factor the first two terms and the last two terms separately:

$\implies f(x)=x(2x-5)+2(2x-5)$

Factor out the common term (2x - 5):

$\implies f(x)=(x+2)(2x-5)$

The x-intercepts are when the curve crosses the x-axis, so when y = 0:

$\implies (x+2)(2x-5)=0$

Therefore:

$\implies (x+2)=0 \implies x=-2$

$\implies (2x-5)=0 \implies x=\dfrac{5}{2}$

So the x-intercepts are:

$x=-2, \:\:x=\dfrac{5}{2}$

The x-value of the vertex is:

$\implies x=\dfrac{-b}{2a}$

Therefore, the x-value of the vertex of the given function is:

$\implies x=\dfrac{-(-1)}{2(2)}=\dfrac{1}{4}$

To find the y-value of the vertex, substitute the found value of x into the function:

$\implies f\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=2\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)^2-\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)-10=-\dfrac{81}{8}$

Therefore, the vertex of the function is:

$\left(\dfrac{1}{4},-\dfrac{81}{8}\right)=(0.25,-10.125)$

Plot the x-intercepts found in Part A.

Plot the vertex found in Part B.

As the <u>leading coefficient</u> of the function is positive, the parabola will open upwards. This is confirmed as the vertex is a minimum point.

The axis of symmetry is the <u>x-value</u> of the <u>vertex</u>. Draw a line at x = ¹/₄ and use this to ensure the drawing of the parabola is <u>symmetrical</u>.

Draw a upwards opening parabola that has a minimum point at the vertex and that passes through the x-intercepts (see attachment).
