Answer:

Option B is correct that is the amount she is getting per bottle is $0.15  

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the information that Melisande collected 14 bottles on Saturday and 9 bottles on Sunday

That means she has collected a total of 23 bottles

Let us assume that the amount she is paid for recycling is $b

Since she is left with $3.20 after the amount she gets for bottles we will get the equation below:

23b=3.20

Now, since she has to pay a one-time service fee equation will become

23b -0.25 =3.20

After simplification, we will  get

23b=3.20+0.25=3.45

b=3.45/23=.15

b=$0.15

Therefore, The amount she is getting per bottle is $0.15

HOPE THIS HELPS :)

Answer:

∠MNP is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the angle and the order it is said. It is ∠ABC, which means the double line side, one curve line angle, and then triple line side.

Now look at the second triangle, the same double line side (NM), one curve line angle (∠N), and triple line side (NP)

Put them together: ∠MNP is your answer

Which of the following is a polynomial with roots: − square root of 5 , square root of 5 , and −3?
tresset_1 [31]
Roots: - √5 , √5, and - 3

=> these are factors of the polynomial: (x + √5), (x - √5), and (x + 3).

Multiply those three factors:

(x + √5) (x - √5) ( x + 3) = [x^2 - 5] ( x + 3 ) = x^2 + 3x^2 - 5x - 15

Therefore the polynomial x^2 + 3x^2 - 5x - 15 is a polynomial with the given roots.

Answer: option B. x^3 + 3x^2 - 5x - 15

The equation below represents the function p.
svet-max [94.6K]
Answers:

1)Tthe first answer is that as x increases the value of  p(x) approaches a number that is greater than  q (x).


2) the y-intercept of the function p is greater than the y-intercept of the function q.


Explanation:


1) Value of the functions as x increases.


Function p:

p(x)=  ( \frac{2}{5} )^{x} -3

As x increases, the value of the function is the limit when x → ∞.

Since [2/5] is less than 1, the limit of [2/5]ˣ when x → ∞ is 0, and the limit of p(x) is 0 - 3 =  -3.

While in the graph you see that the function q has a horizontal asymptote that shows that the limit of q (x) when x → ∞ is - 4.

Then, the first answer is that as x increases the value of  p(x) approaches a number that is greater than  q (x).


2) y - intercepts.

i) To determine the y-intercept of the function p(x), just replace x = 0 in the equation:
p(x) = [ 2 / 5]⁰ - 3 = 1 - 3 = - 2

ii) The y-intercept of q(x) is read in the graph. It is - 3.

Then the answer is that the y-intercept of the function p is greater than the y-intercept of the function q.
