The formula for exponential growth rate is:

A = Ao e^(k t)

where A is the final standard of living, Ao is the initial, k is the growth rate constant in decimal = 0.08, t is time elapsed

 

So we will find t at A/Ao = 2

A/Ao = e^(k t)

2 = e^( 0.08 t)

t = 8.66 ~ since more than therefore 9

 

So by the time they reached age 29

A store has two different coupons that customers can use. One coupon gives the customer $15 off their purchase, and the other co
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

16.25;

g(f(x)) ;

76 ;

f(g(x))

Explanation:

For 15 off

f(x) = x - 15

For 35% off

g(x) = (1 - 0.35)x = 0.65x

g(x) = 0.65x

A.)

For the $15 off coupon :

f(x) = x - 15

f(x) 40 - 15 = 25

For the 35% coupon :

g(x) = (1-0.35)x

g(x) = 0.65(25)

g(x) = 16.25

B.)

Applying $15 off first, then 35%

Here, g is a function of f(x)

g(f(x))

Here g(x) takes in the result of f(x) ;

For the $140 off coupon :

f(x) = x - 15

f(140) = 140 - 15 = 125

For the 35% coupon :

g(125) = (1-0.35)x

g(124) = 0.65(125) = $81.25

C.)

x = 140

g(x) = 0.65x

g(140) = 0.65(140)

g(140) = 91

f(x) = x - 15

f(91) = 91 - 15

f(91) = 76

D.)

Here, F is a function of g(x)

f(g(x))

f(x) = (0.65*140) - 15

The actual inventory holding cost incurred by an item depends on how long it actually spends in inventory.
svlad2 [7]
True. <span>The actual inventory holding cost incurred by an item depends on how long it actually spends in inventory. Holding costs are costs that happen when the inventory stays put and does not sell. The costs are calculated into the inventory costs along side of ordering and shortage costs. Holding costs can include the goods being damaged or spoiling due to the length of being held. Since they can be held for 5 days or 100 days (example) the total cost that is held depends on the length the items were held for. </span>
