Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = 8x - 9
Then
For a.
f(3y - 1 ) = 8(3y - 1 ) - 9
= 24y - 8 - 9
= 24y - 17
Now for b.
f(x) = - 23
or, 8x - 9 = - 23
8x = - 23 + 9
8x = - 14
x = - 14 / 8
x = - 7 / 4
Hope it will help :)
If x=1 and y=5 we get as 4product of 1+5=9
=4+5=9
9=9
lhs=rhs

Answer:
33.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
The selling price of £42 is (1 +40%) times the total purchase price.
1.40 × purchase price = £42
purchase price = £42/1.40 = £30
The total profit is 40% of this, so is ...
£30 × 40% = £12
The purchase price of the skirt is ...
total cost - glove cost = skirt cost = £30 -3 = £27
The profit on the skirt is ...
total profit - glove profit = skirt profit = £12 -100% × £3 = £9
Then the percentage profit on the skirt is ...
skirt profit % = skirt profit / skirt cost × 100% = £9/£27 × 100% = 33.3%
The percentage profit on the cost of the skirt was 33.3%.
By drawing the hypotenuse of the shape.
