Answer:

a. No

b. 2.25 days

Step-by-step explanation:

0.75x + 3 = 0.25x + 5.25

a......................

Constants are $3 and $5.25 respectively

Topping costs $0.75 and $0.25 respectively

To have same cost the toppings number would be different as cost is different.

Suppose the number of toppings is x in one shop and y in the other, then the spending if same, we get this equation:

  • 0.75x + 3 = 0.25y + 5.25

The answer is NO due to two different variables in the equation

b.......................

Constants are $3 and $5.25 respectively

Joseph adds $0.75 each day and Kelsey spends $0.25 each day

Number of days should be same in this case, so variable will be same and the result (amount left in bank) is same.

<u>So the equation for this case is:</u>

  • 3 + 0.75x = 5.25 - 025x

<u>Solving, we get:</u>

  • 0.75x + 0.25x = 5.25 - 3
  • x = 2.25

This is the solution to equation despite being a whole number.

If f(x) =4x2 - 8x - 20 and g(x) = 2x + a, find the value of a so that the y-intercept of the graph of the composite function (fo
amm1812

Answer:

The possible values are a = -2.5 or a = 4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Composite function:

The composite function of f(x) and g(x) is given by:

(f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))

In this case:

f(x) = 4x^2 - 8x - 20

g(x) = 2x + a

So

(f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(2x + a) = 4(2x + a)^2 - 8(2x + a) - 20 = 4(4x^2 + 4ax + a^2) - 16x - 8a - 20 = 16x^2 + 16ax + 4a^2 - 16x - 8a - 20 = 16x^2 +(16a-16)x + 4a^2 - 8a - 20

Value of a so that the y-intercept of the graph of the composite function (fog)(x) is (0, 25).

This means that when x = 0, f(g(x)) = 25. So

4a^2 - 8a - 20 = 25

4a^2 - 8a - 45 = 0

Solving a quadratic equation, by Bhaskara:

\Delta = (-8)^2 - 4(4)(-45) = 784

x_{1} = \frac{-(-8) + \sqrt{784}}{2*(4)} = \frac{36}{8} = 4.5

x_{2} = \frac{-(-8) - \sqrt{784}}{2*(4)} = -\frac{20}{8} = -2.5

The possible values are a = -2.5 or a = 4.5.

Cant find the answer
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Carter family = 25 hours

Davis family = 31 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the number of hours the Carter family used their sprinkler is x and the number of hours the Davis family used their sprinkler for is y.

So combined:

x + y = 45 hours

and we are also told that:

40x + 15y = 1300 L

So we can do simultaneous equations to solve the problem.

With some rearranging, we can figure out that:

y= 45 - x

and by substituting that into the second equation:

40x + 15 (45 -x) = 40x + 675 - 15x = 1300L

25x = 1300 - 675

25x = 625

x = 25 = hours that the Carter family used their sprinkler

and we can substitute that back into the original equation to find how many hours the Davis family used their sprinkler so:

25 + y = 56

y = 31

The Davis family used their sprinkler for 31 hours whilst the Carter family used their sprinkler for 25 hours.
