Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

marked down by 1/4 of the original price.

let x represent original price

original price - 1/4 of original price = sales price

x - 1/4x = 128

4/4x - 1/4x = 128

3/4x = 128

x = 128/(3/4)

x = 128 * 4/3

x = 512/3

x = 170.666 rounds to 170.67 <== original price

==============================

I hope I am understanding this one correctly...

let x = price the store paid

x + 1/2x = 170.67

2/2x + 1/2x = 170.67

3/2x = 170.67

x = 170.67 / (3/2)

x = 170.67 * 2/3

x = 341.34/3

x = 113.78 <=== what the store paid

===========================

the difference between the discount price..I am assuming this is the $ 128 from part A.....and what the store paid....113.78...from part B..

128 - 113.78 = $ 14.22 <==

I am not completely sure about B and C......B confused me.....and if B is wrong, so is C.

Additive inverse of −2, additive identity of −5, additive inverse of 3, multiplicative identity of 19, and multiplicative invers

monitta

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Additive inverse of −2

the additive inverse of a number a is the number that, when added to 'a', yields zero. This number is also known as the opposite (number), sign change, and negation.
So the Additive inverse of -2 is 2. ∴ -2+2=0

b) Additive identity of −5

Additive identity is the value when added to a number, results in the original number. When we add 0 to any real number, we get the same real number.
-5 + 0 = -5. Therefore, 0 is the additive identity of any real number.

c) additive inverse of 3

Two numbers are additive inverses if they add to give a sum of zero. 3 and -3 are additive inverses since 3 + (-3) = 0. -3 is the additive inverse of 3.

d). multiplicative identity of 19

an identity element (such as 1 in the group of rational numbers without 0) that in a given mathematical system leaves unchanged any element by which it is multiplied
Multiplicative identity if 19 is 1 only, since 19 x 1 = 19.

e) multiplicative inverse of 7

Dividing by a number is equivalent to multiplying by the reciprocal of the number. Thus, 7 ÷7=7 × 1⁄7 =1. Here, 1⁄7 is called the multiplicative inverse of 7.

d) | 11-5|×|1-5|

| 11-5|×|1-5| ⇒ I6I×I-4I ⇒ 6×4 ⇒ 24

There were about 1.22 million Hispanic-owned businesses in 2012 and 1.73 million in 2017.

Answer:

f(t) = 1.22·(173/122)^(t/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) An exponential growth (or decay) function can be written using the form ...

f(t) = (initial value)·(ratio in period)^(t/period)

Here, we're given an initial value of 1.22, a growth ratio of 1.73/1.22 in a period of 5 years, so we can write the function as ...

f(t) = 1.22·(173/122)^(t/5)

(b) In 2038-2012 = 26 years, the value of the function is ...

f(26) = 1.22·(173/122)^(26/5) ≈ 7.50 . . . . million
