Answer:
a)
<u>The discount id 40%, so the function is:</u>
b)
- p = 100 ⇒ d = 40
- p = 200 ⇒ d = 80
- p = 300 ⇒ d = 120
- p = 400 ⇒ d = 160
- p = 500 ⇒ d = 200
<em>The graph is attached</em>
c)
- p = $85 ⇒ d = 0.4*$85 = $34
<u>Sale price is:</u>
- CP = p - d = $85 - $34 = $51
No, it is not a function.
Since all the lines have been drawn in the grid line do not have any connection between them even a point in common.
I hope this has been useful for you.
You need LCD or the least common denominator. For 4 over 8 and 2 over 8 have the same denominators except for 2 over 4. You need to ask yourself what times 4 equals to 8? 4 times 2 equals to 8, so multiply 4x2 for the denominator and for the numerator multiply 2x2. Whatever you do to the denominator you have to do the same thing to the numerator. You multiplied 4x2 for the denominator and 2x2 for the numerator and now your fraction is 4 over 8. Now add 4 over 8+ 4 over 8 which is 8 over 8 or 1. Now add 1+ 2 over 8 which is 1 2/8. If you simplify 1 2/8 it will become 1 1/4.
Hope that helped:D
It's pretty much simple. Since we can factor a polynomial by its zeros, lets write one of degree nine :
X(X-1)(X-2)(X-3)(X-4)(X-5)(X+1)(X+2)(X+3)= X^9-9X^8+6X^7+126X^6-231X^5-441X^4+944X^3+324X^2-720X
This polynomial is of degree 9 and has exactly 5 strictly positive zeros : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
And it has 3 negative zeros : - 1, -1, - 3
And it has 0 as a zero too.
There is also this one :
(X-1)(X-2)(X-3)(X-4)(X²+1)(X+1)(X+2)(X+3) = X^9-4X^8-13X^7+52X^6+35X^5-140X^4+13X^3-52X^2-36X+144
It has 4 positive zeros : 1, 2, 3, 4.
It has complex zeros : i and - i
3 negative zeros : - 1, - 2 , - 3
Good Luck
