Step-by-step explanation:
I am not sure what your problem here is.
you understand the inequality signs ?
anyway, to get
6×f(-2) + 3×g(1)
we can calculate every part of the expression separately, and then combine all the results into one final result.
f(-2)
we look at the definition.
into what category is -2 falling ? the one with x<-2, or the one with x>=-2 ?
is -2 < -2 ? no.
is -2 >= -2 ? yes, because -2 = -2. therefore, it is also >= -2.
so, we have to use
1/3 x³
for x = -2 that is
1/3 × (-2)³ = 1/3 × -8 = -8/3
g(1)
again, we look at the definition.
into what category is 1 falling ? the one with x > 2 ? or the one with x <= 1 ?
is 1 > 2 ? no.
is 1 <= 1 ? yes, because 1=1. therefore it is also <= 1.
so we have to use
2×|x - 1| + 3
for x = 1 we get
2×0 + 3 = 3
6×f(-2) = 6 × -8/3 = 2× -8 = -16
3×g(1) = 3× 3 = 9
and so in total we get
6×f(-2) + 3×g(1) = -16 + 9 = -7
It would be: 178.90 * 3.75%
= 178.90 * 0.0375
= 6.71
In short, Sales tax would be $6.71
Hope this helps!
All the prime numbers betwemn 20 and 30 are 23 and 29
You wan't to get it into a format of (x+a)(x+b)=0
where a+b = 3 (the one from the 3x)
and where a*b= -4 (from the last -4)
(x+4)(x-1)=0
See how 4+(-1) = 3 and (4)(-1) = -4
now find what values of x would make the equation equal 0
x=-4
(-4+4)(-4-1) = (0)(-5) = 0
x=1
(1+4)(1-1) = (5)(0) = 0
