X=amount of money woman has
n=pounds of sugar 
Store #1: 8.5*n=x+30
Store #2: 8*n=x-25

multiply #2 by 17/16 to make coefficient of n same as in #1

2: 8.5*n=17/16(x-25)

Subtract #2 from #1

0=x+30-17/16(x-25)
x+30-17x/16 +25*17/16
x/16=30+25*17/16
x=480+425
=905 cents
=$9.05

Find the total surface area of this square based
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

300ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area = Area of base + (1/2) x perimeter of base x slant height

Area of base = length² = 10 x 10 = 100

Perimeter of base = 2 ( length + breadth)

2 x 20 = 40

slant height = 10

100 + (1/2) x 40 x 10 = 300 ft^2

F(x)=1/2x+4 For R={5,6,7,8}
anzhelika [568]

Hey there!!

Remember : R = range and f ( x ) = y and y = range

R : { 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 }

( 1 ) 5 = 1 x / 2 + 4

... 5 - 4 = x / 2

... 1 = x / 2

... x = 2 = ( 2 , 5 )

( 2 ) 6 = x / 2 + 4

... 2 = x / 2

... x = 4 = ( 4 , 6 )

( 3 ) 7 = x / 2 + 4

... 3 = x / 2

... x = 6 = ( 6 , 7 )

( 4 ) 8 = x /2 + 4

... 4 = x/2

... x = 8 = ( 8 , 8 )

Hope my answer helps!

What is the domain of y = cos ^-1x?
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct option is

D

[1,(1+π)  

2

]

f(x)=(1+sec  

−1

(x))(1+cos  

−1

(x))

Here the limiting component is cos  

−1

(x), since the domain of cos  

−1

(x) is [−1,1].

Therefore,

f(1)=(1+0)(1+0)

=1

f(−1)=(1+π)(1+π)

=(1+π)  

2

 

Hence range of f(x)=[1,(1+π)
