Answer:

$6981

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer by using the following formula:

(this year cost)=(last year cost)+((last year cost)*(percent increase of cost)) so:

3750+3650=X+0.06X where X=last year cost, then:

7400=1.06X

6981.13=X

In conclusion, last year he spent $6981.

BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT HURRY

dlinn [17]

Answer:

-5 5/10, -32/40,5

whenever a number has a negative sign,the larger the number the smaller.

i.e (-55/10= -5.5) is smaller than -32/40=-0.8 and then the greatest is 5 since it is a positive number and positive numbers are greater than negative numbers.

Question 6 Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Quantity A because it changes with gravitational pull.

Explanation:

Mass defines the constitutive matter of an object. It is immutable (does not change). Although it could be converted into energy, the matter is constant.

On the other hand, the weight of an object (gravitational force) depends on the acceleration due to gravity.

That is why an astronaut weighs about three times more on earth than on Mars. The gravitational acceleration on Mars is about one third that on earth.

Which is the inverse of the function a(d)=5d-3? And use the definition of inverse functions to prove a(d) and a-1(d) are inverse

Drupady [299]

Answer:

$a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

$a(a'(d)) = a'(a(d)) = d$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a(d) = 5d - 3$

Solving (a): Write as inverse function

$a(d) = 5d - 3$

Represent a(d) as y

$y = 5d - 3$

Swap positions of d and y

$d = 5y - 3$

Make y the subject

$5y = d + 3$

$y = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

Replace y with a'(d)

$a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

Prove that a(d) and a'(d) are inverse functions

$a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$ and $a(d) = 5d - 3$

To do this, we prove that:

$a(a'(d)) = a'(a(d)) = d$

Solving for $a(a'(d))$

$a(a'(d)) = a(\frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5})$

Substitute $\frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$ for d in $a(d) = 5d - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = 5(\frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}) - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = \frac{5d}{5} + \frac{15}{5} - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = d + 3 - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = d$

Solving for: $a'(a(d))$

$a'(a(d)) = a'(5d - 3)$

Substitute 5d - 3 for d in $a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

$a'(a(d)) = \frac{5d - 3}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

Add fractions

$a'(a(d)) = \frac{5d - 3+3}{5}$

$a'(a(d)) = \frac{5d}{5}$

$a'(a(d)) = d$

Hence:

$a(a'(d)) = a'(a(d)) = d$

Please answer this correctly

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

The die has sides 1,2,3,4,5,6

P( less than 5) = 1,2,3,4 / total

=4/6 = 2/3

Then rolling again

P(greater than 5) = 6/total = 1/6

P( less than 5,greater than 5) = 2/3* 1/6= 1/9
