A function

is periodic if there is some constant

such that

for all

in the domain of

. Then

is the "period" of

.
Example:
If

, then we have

, and so

is periodic with period

.
It gets a bit more complicated for a function like yours. We're looking for

such that

Expanding on the left, you have

and

It follows that the following must be satisfied:

The first two equations are satisfied whenever

, or more generally, when

and

(i.e. any multiple of 4).
The second two are satisfied whenever

, and more generally when

with

(any multiple of 10/7).
It then follows that all four equations will be satisfied whenever the two sets above intersect. This happens when

is any common multiple of 4 and 10/7. The least positive one would be 20, which means the period for your function is 20.
Let's verify:


More generally, it can be shown that

is periodic with period

.
we have that
*-------------------------*--------------------------------*
E F G
EF=2x-12
FG= 3x-15
EG=23
we know that
EF + FG = EG
so
[2x - 12] + [3x - 15] = 23 simplify
5x - 27 = 23 add 27 to both sides
5x = 50 divide both sides by 5
x = 10
EF=2x-12-------> EF=2*10-12-------> EF=8
FG= 3x-15------> FG=3*10-15------> FG=15
therefore
the answer part a) is
the value of x is 10
the answer part b) is
the value of EF is 8
the answer part c) is
the value of FG is 15
Answer:
16oz bag, $0.32 saved
Step-by-step explanation:
3.12/12 = 0.26
3.84/16 = 0.24
For the 12-ounce bag, it would be $0.26 per ounce. For the 16-ounce bag, it would only be $0.24 per ounce.
16*0.26=4.16
4.16 - 3.84 = 0.32
$0.38 saved
Pie equals 3.14 so if you turn that into a fraction you will get your answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
