Answer:the maximum number of ccf Jake can use if he wants his bill to be no more than $58.00 is $15.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of ccf of water that Jake uses in a month.

Jake's water bill is $24.40 per month plus $2.20 per ccf (hundred cubic feet) of water. This means that if she uses x ccf of water in a month, her total water bill would be

24.40 + 2.2x

Therefore, the maximum number of ccf Jake can use if he wants his bill to be no more than $58.00 would be

24.40 + 2.2x ≤ 58

2.2x ≤ 58 - 24.4

2.2x ≤ 33.6

x ≤ 33.6/2.2

x ≤ 15.3

If f(x) = 2x2 +5/(x-2), complete the following statement:
faust18 [17]

For this case we have the following function:

f (x) = 2x ^ 2 + \frac {5} {x-2}

By definition, we have that the domain of a function is given by all the values for which the function is defined. The given function is not defined when the denominator is zero.

So:

x-2 = 0\\x = 2

Thus, the function is not defined at x = 2.

The domain is given by all real numbers except 2.

Answer:

The domain is given by all real numbers except 2.

Use f(x)=-2x+5 to find x when f(x)=11
Damm [24]
When it asks this question, ultimately you want to plug 11 into x because its f(x). 11=-2+5.

Then you subtract 5 on both sides because of the opposite of addition is subtraction.

6=-2x

now divide on both sides

x=-3

johns test grades in his science class are 82, 93, 75, and 89 what is his average? 1. (87.45) 2. (80.00) 3. (90.40) 4. (89.25) 5
inessss [21]

First you add all the numbers together. So you add 82+93+75+89 to get 339. Once you get that, you divide it by the amount of numbers there are. In this case, it's 4. 339 divided by 4 is 84.75.

HOPE THIS HELPS!!
