tudents are given 3 minutes for each multiple-choice question and 5 minutes for each free-response question on a test. There are

15 questions on the test, and students are given 51 minutes to take it. The system of equations shown can be used to find the number of multiple-choice questions, m, and the number of free-response questions, f, on the test. m + f = 15 3m + 5f = 51 How many multiple-choice questions are on the test? 3 5 12 14

In this question, they gave you the system of equations. You just need to use the two of them.

We want to find the m or the number of the multiple-choice questions. So we need to turn our last equation in the form of 'm's by translating the 'f's into 'm's.

m + f = 15
f = 15 - m

If we know the m form of f, we can convert the second equation and find the answer: 3m + 5f = 51

Plug in the m value of f: 3m + 5(15 - m) = 51

Distribute the 5: 3m + 75 - 5m = 51

Subtract -75 from both sides: 3m - 5m= 51 - 75

Combine like terms: - 2m = - 24

Divide both sides by -2: m = 12

So, we learned that the number of the multiple-choice questions is 12.

A retail outlet offers a retention bonus for each shopping season an employee remains with the company. Samuel's starting pay is
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Samuel's hourly rate after n seasons with the company is f(n)= 12.50 + 0.35*n.  After 18 seasons with the company, Samuel's hourly rate will be 18.8 $ /hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that Samuel's starting pay is $12.50/hr and for each season Samuel remains with the company, he receives a $0.35/hr raise.

Samuel's hourly rate after n seasons at the company will then be:

f(n)= 12.50 + 0.35*n

To determine the hourly rate after 18 seasons, you must replace the value n with 18:

f(18)= 12.50 + 0.35*18

Solving you get:

f(18)= 12.50 + 6.3

f(18)= 18.8

<u><em>Samuel's hourly rate after n seasons with the company is f(n)= 12.50 + 0.35*n.  After 18 seasons with the company, Samuel's hourly rate will be 18.8 $ /hr. </em></u>

Annual insurance is 1,000 face value.
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Premium for Company A :

face value = 1.86 , charges are 20% more for smokers

⇒ Charges = 20% of 250000 = $50000

Total charge = Charge × face value

                     = 50000 × 1.86 = $93000

  • Premium for Company B :

face value = 1.86 , charges are 18% more for smokers

⇒ Charges = 18% of 250000 = $45000

Total charge = Charge × face value

                     = 45000 × 1.86 = $83700

  • Premium for Company C :

face value = 2.07 , charges are 25% more for smokers

⇒ Charges = 25% of 250000 = $62500

Total charge = Charge × face value

                     = 62500 × 2.07 = $129375

  • Premium for Company D :

face value = 2.25 , charges are 15% more for smokers

⇒ Charges = 15% of 250000 = $37500

Total charge = Charge × face value

                     = 37500 × 2.25 = $84375

Hence, The option A. is correct that is Aaron is paying the smallest premium possible with company B

the function f(x)= sqrt x is translated left 5 units and up 3 units to create the function g(x). what is the domain of g(x)?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

x ≥ -5

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a translation to left c units, we write " x + c " in the function, and

If we have a translation to right c units, we write " x - c" in the function

If we have vertical translation up b units, we "add b to the function", and

If we have vertical translation down b units, we "subtract b to the function"

The parent function is  f(x)=\sqrt{x}

Since translation left 5 units and up 3 units, we can write:

f(x)=\sqrt{x+5} + 3

The domain is affected by the square root sign and we know the number under the square root CANNOT be negative, so we can say:

x + 5 ≥ 0

x ≥ -5

This is the domain.
