Answer:
$1,562.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Markup= (selling price- cost)/cost
Let cost be represented by C
0.20 = (1875-C)/ C
0.20C = 1875 - C
0.20C+ C = 1875
1.20C=1875
Divide both sides by 1.20;
C= 1875/1.20
C= $1,562.50
The wholesale cost was $1,562.50
The two fractions that added together give you a sum of -7/24 are 1/24+-8/24= -7/24
Answer: A. 1 pound of cabbage will cost 40 cents. B. (10,4) means that 10 pounds of cabbage will cost 4 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
If it is proportional that means the y value divided by the x value will give you a constant slope.
So using that use the coordinates (5,2) to find the cost of 1 pound of cabbage.
2/5 = 0.4
so you could write the equation y= 0.4x where x is the number of pound.
Part A: y= 0.4(1)
y= $0.40 which means one pound of cabbage will cost 40 cents.
Part B. (10,4) in this case it will means that for 10 pounds of cabbage it will cost $4.
Plot it into the equation and find out
in the coordinates (10,4) 4 is the y and 10 is the x
4= 0.4(10)
4= 4
Which means it true that 10 pounds of cabbage will cost 4 dollars.
In piecewise linear functions, the endpoint of one segment and the initial point of the next segment can have the same x-coordinate but a different value of f(x).
Such difference in values is called a step or discontinuity and such a function is called a discontinuous function.
Here in this case, there are 3 discontinuities: x=-3, x=3 and x = 5.
x = -3 because x is smaller than or greater than -3 but not equal.
x = 3 since greater than 3 in one of the inequalities.
x = 5 since x is smaller than 5 in one of the limits.
Answer:
it would be c when fully simplified.
