Hi,

Essentially, we are saying that Alyssa gets 5 parts of the whole thing (140,000), Bart gets 3 parts of the whole and Meghan gets 2 parts of the whole. The sum total of their parts = the whole. So now we need to find out how much one part is. Thus,"one part" should be the variable. Substitute p for "one part", so Alyssa gets 5p, Bart gets 3p, and Meghan gets 2p. Since the sum of the parts = the whole, your problem sets up as:  5p + 3p + 2p = 140,000  -->  10p = 140,000 --> 10p/10 = 140,000/10  -->  x = 14,000.

Alyssa gets 5p or (5 x 14,000)

Bart gets 3p or (3 x 14,000)

Meghan gets 2p or (2 x 14,000)

If the whole was a loss, it would be a negative, and instead of getting money, they would lose money.

Hi there!
The question sounds really complex, but the mathematical operations behind it is figuratively simple. Here, we are told to find 19 (18.7 rounded up is 19) percent of 1,000. To do this, we can set up a proportion to model the whole scenario.
\frac{x}{1000} = \frac{19}{100}
Now, just solve for x by cross multiplying and simplifying.
\frac{x}{1000} = \frac{19}{100}

100x = 19000
x=190
Therefore, 190 people out of 1,000 people leave out pertinent information on their IRS forms. Hope this helped and have a terrific day!

Define a function f on a set of real numbers as follows: f(x) = 3x − 1 x , for each real number x ≠ 0 Prove that f is one-to-one
dalvyx [7]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

f(x)=\frac{3x-1}{x}

For each real number x\neq 0

To prove that f is one -to-one.

Proof:Let x_1 and x_2 be any nonzero real numbers such that

f(x_1)=f(x_2)

By using the definition of f to rewrite the left hand side of this equation

f(x_1)=\frac{3x_1-1}{x_1}

Then, by using the definition of f to rewrite the right hand side of this equation  of f(x_1)=f(x_2)

f(x_2)=\frac{3x_2-1}{x_2}

Equating the expression then we get

\frac{3x_1-1}{x_1}=\frac{3x_2-1}{x_2}

3x_1x_2-x_2=3x_2x_1-x_1

3x_1x_2-3x_1x_2+x_1=x_2

x_1=x_2

Therefore, f is one-to-one.
