Answer:

-\frac{3080}{81}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is:

p(x)=3x^{5}+2x^{2}-5

We have to find the value of the function at x = -5/3

In order to do this we need to replace every occurrence of x in the given function by -5/3. i.e.

p(-\frac{5}{3})=3(-\frac{5}{3})^{5}+2(-\frac{5}{3} )^{2}-5\\\\ p(-\frac{5}{3})=3(-\frac{3125}{243} )+2(\frac{25}{9} )-5\\\\p(-\frac{5}{3})=-\frac{3125}{81}+\frac{50}{9}-5\\\\ p(-\frac{5}{3})=-\frac{3080}{81}

Thus, the value of the function at x =-5/3 is -\frac{3080}{81}

Three salesmen work for the same company, selling the same product. And, although they are all paid on a weekly basis, each sale
LenaWriter [7]

Based on the amount that both Salesmen A and B earn per sale, the number of sales they both had was 12 sales.

<h3>How many sales did Salesmen A and B have?</h3>

Sales commission is a key aspect of sales compensation. It's the amount of money a salesperson earns based on the number of sales they have been able to make.

We are told that;

Salesman A gets $65 per sale.

Salesman B gets $300 and $40 per sale.

Assuming the number of sales to take them both to the same amount is x, the relevant formulas would be:

65x = 300 + 40x

Rearranging gives;

65x - 40x = 300

25x = 300

x = 300/25

x = 12 sales

The amount that salesman A earned is = 65 * 12 = $780

The amount that salesman B earned is = 300 + (40 * 12) = $780

A scale for a scale drawing is 10cm:1mm. which is larger the actual object or drawing explain
Bogdan [553]
If I'm understanding your question, the drawing is 10cm and for every 10cm, the drawing is etched 1mm. This means that no matter how big the drawing gets, the actual object will always be bigger since it's 10cm larger always than the drawing. Hope this helped!

An online furniture store sells chairs for $100 each and tables for $450 each. Every day, the store can ship a maximum of 24 pie
Anni [7]

Answer:

23 or more chairs.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 tables to start. Each tables is 450 dollars.

5x450=2250

4500-2250=2250

2250(money still need to be made) divided by 100(the price of a chair)=22.5

Since you can't have a half of a chair but you cant have any less, you round it up to 23 chairs. The answer is 23 or more chairs.
