Answer:
3x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
We know for the problem that the performer earned $120 at a performance where 8 people attend. We also know that he u<span>ses 43% of the money earned to pay the costs involved in putting on each performance, so we need to find the 43% of $120. To do that, we are going to divide 43% by 100%, and then multiply it by $120:
</span>
Now we know that the performer uses $51.6 of $120 to pay the costs involved in putting on each performance. The only thing left to find his profits is subtract $51.6 from $120:
We can conclude that the performer makes a profit of $68.4 when 8 people attend his performance.
Answer:
i)
0.79m
ii)
1.21m
iii)
7/5m
iv)
3/5m
Step-by-step explanation:
i)
The price of a USB memory stick selling at a 21% discount off its marked price (m)
The marked price m represents 100% of the value of the USB memory stick. Offering a 21% discount off the marked price will mean that the USB will be selling at;
(100 - 21)% of the marked price m
=79% of m
= (79/100)*m
= 0.79m
ii)
The price of a CD that sells for 21% more than the amount (m) needed to manufacture the CD.
The amount (m) needed to manufacture the CD would represent 100% of the value of the CD. Selling the CD for 21% more than the amount (m) needed to manufacture the CD will imply that the selling price is;
(100+21)% of m
= 121% of m
= (121/100)*m
= 1.21m
iii)
The final value of a painting after its initial value, m, increases by 2/5.
The initial value of the painting is given as m. The value of the painting is said to increase by 2/5 which means that the increase in its value would be;
2/5 of m
=2/5 * m
=2/5m
The final value of the painting will thus be;
initial value + increase in value
=m + 2/5m
= m(1+2/5)
=7/5m
iv)
The total number of markers that Nancy has if she gives away 2/5 of her m markers to Amy.
Initially, Nancy had a total of m markers. By giving away 2/5 of her markers to Amy, her markers reduced by;
2/5 of m
=2/5*m
=2/5m
The new number of her markers will be given by;
initial numbers - total given to Amy
= m - (2/5m)
= m(1 - 2/5)
=m(3/5)
=3/5m
For this we are going to use the equation f(x)=a|x+h|+k
Since there is no a shown, we know that a=1. This means the slope of the graph by 1's. (slope=1 one on the right side and slope=-1 on the left, because absolute value graphs are shaped like a "v".)
Since h=-2, just move the function to the left 2 units.
Since k=5, move the function up 5 units.
This basically means the vertex of the function is at the point (-2,5).
So put the point (-2,5) on your graph, then make the v-shape with a slope of 1 on the right side, and -1 on the left.
Sometimes if you aren't sure how the graph will look, just plug x-values into the function to get their corresponding y-values. Then see how the graph looks to check.
