Let

s--------> the cost in dollars of a piece of shirt

p--------> the cost in dollars of a pair of pant

T--------> total cost of Lorenzo's buy in dollars

we know that

$T=3s+2p$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the expression represents the total cost of Lorenzo's buy in dollars (the total cost of the 3 shirts and the 2 pairs of pants)

In the accompanying figure, triangle ABC has coordinates A(0,3), B(7,3), C(7,7). What is the area of triangle ABC in square unit

ElenaW [278]

We know area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} * base * height$

In triangle ABC , AB is the base and BC is the height

Now we find the distance between A and B

Distance formula is $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}$

A(0,3), B(7,3)

Distance AB = $\sqrt{(7-0)^2 + (3-3)^2}$

= $\sqrt{(7)^2 }$ = 7

B(7,3), C(7,7)

Distance BC = $\sqrt{(7-7)^2 + (7-3)^2}$

= $\sqrt{(4)^2 }$ = 4

area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} * base * height$

area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} * AB * BC$

= $\frac{1}{2} * 7 * 4$ = 14 $units ^2$

The graph of y=|x|y=∣x∣y, equals, vertical bar, x, vertical bar is shifted down by 999 units.

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

$y = |x| -9$

Step-by-step explanation:

The base function is given as

$y = |x|$

This graph opens up and has its vertex at the origin.

When we shift the graph of this function down by 9 units, its vertex is now at (0,-9)

The equation of this new graph is

$y = |x| -9$

Arithmetic of Functions problem.

lidiya [134]

Answer:

(f o g)(4) = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=4x+1

g(x)=x²-5

(f o g)(4)=?

(f o g)(4) = f(g(4))

Calculating g(4):

x=4→g(4)=4²-5

g(4)=16-5

g(4)=11

Replacing g(4)=11

(f o g)(4) = f(g(4))

(f o g)(4) = f(11)

Calculating f(11)

x=11→f(11)=4(11)+1

f(11)=44+1

f(11)=45

Replacing f(11)=45:

(f o g)(4) = f(11)

(f o g)(4) = 45
