The hourly wage increase each employee receives each year depends on their number of years of service. Every three years of serv

ice means an increase of $0.50 per hour. So, employees that have been with the company for less than three years can expect to receive an increase of $0.50 per hour. Employees that have been with the company for at least three years, but less than six years can expect an increase of $1.00. Employees that have been with the company for at six years, but less than nine years, receive an increase of $1.50 per hour. And, employees of at least nine years, but less than twelve years receive an increase of $2.00. Write a function to represent this scenario.
Which graph represents this wage increase for x < 12?

Answer:  The Function is,

f(x) = \begin{cases}0.50 & \text{ if } x

The below graph the wage increase for x < 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the number of years and f(x) represents the increment in wages.

According to question,

For the employees that have been with the company for less than three years can expect to receive an increase of $0.50 per hour.

That is, for x < 3, f(x) = 0.50

Employees that have been with the company for at least three years, but less than six years can expect an increase of $1.00.

That is, for 3 ≤ x < 6 , f(x) = 1.00

Employees that have been with the company for at six years, but less than nine years, receive an increase of $1.50 per hour

That is, For 6 ≤ x < 9, f(x) = 1.50

And, employees of at least nine years, but less than twelve years receive an increase of $2.00.

That is, For 9 ≤ x< 12, f(x) = 2.00

Thus, the complete function that shows the total increment in wages is,

f(x) = \begin{cases}0.50 & \text{ if } x

Which is the piece wise function.

Since, f(x) = constant for 4 intervals.

Thus, In the graph we will obtain the lines parallel to x-axis.

If we let x as the number of years of service in the company and f(x) as the increase in the wage, the step wise function that describes the scenario is
f(x) = { 0.5,   x < 3
         { 1.0,   3 ≤ x < 6
         { 1.5,   6 ≤ x < 9
         { 2.0,   9 ≤ x < 12

The point (2, 12) represents the wage increase of x < 12

Make 10 equations for 50,000
Kruka [31]

Answer:

1. 50 * 1,000 = 50,000

2. 49,001 + 999 = 50,000

3. 5 * 10,000 = 50,000

4. 100,000/2 = 50,000

5. 20,000 + 30,000 = 50,000

6. 50,000/1 = 50,000

7. 90,000 - 40,000 = 50,000

8. 10 + 49,990 = 50,000

9. 5,000 * 10 = 50,000

10. 1,000,000/20 = 50,000

Write 2^8 * 8^2 * 4^-4 in the form 2^n
Eva8 [605]

The given expression 2^8 * 8^2 * 4^-4 can be written in the exponential form 2^n as 2^6.

<h3>What are exponential forms?</h3>

The exponential form is a more convenient way to write repetitive multiplication of the same integer by using the base and its exponents.

<u>For example:</u>

If we have a*a*a*a, it can be written in exponential form as:

=a^4

where

  • a is the base, and
  • 4 is the power.

The power in this format reflects the number of times we multiply the base by itself. The exponent is also known as the index or power. 

From the information given:

We can write 2^8 * 8^2 * 4^-4 in form of 2^n as follows:

\mathbf{= 2^8\times (2^3)^2 \times (2^2)^{-4} }

\mathbf{= 2^8\times (2^6) \times (2^{-8}) }

\mathbf{= 2^{8+6+(-8)}}

\mathbf{= 2^{6}}

Therefore, we can conclude that by using the exponential form, the given expression 2^8 * 8^2 * 4^-4 in the form 2^n is 2^6.
