3(x + 6) = x - 2

3(-4+6)= -4-2

mutiply the bracket by 3

(3)(-4)= -12

(3)(6)= 18

-12+18= -4-2

6= -4-2

6= -6

A manager needs to order company shirts for each employee. She was quoted the following rates. If she orders 75 shirts and passe

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The answer is $7.47.

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate how much in total 75 shirts cost:

- first 19 (less than 20) cost $10: 19 * $10 = $190

- the next 30 cost $8: 30 * $8 = $240

- the rest (26 = 75 - 19 - 30) cost $5: 26 * $5 = $130

in total 75 shirts cost $560:

19 * $10 + 30 * $8 + 21 * $5 = $190 + $240 + $130 = $560

Since 75 shirts are ordered, there must be 75 employees, so each employee must pay $7.47:

$565 ÷ 75 = $7.47

Two separate bacteria populations grow each month and are represented by the functions f(x) = 3x and g(x) = 7x + 6. In what mont

harina [27]

Answer:

D. Month 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

Two separate bacteria populations grow each month and are represented by the functions

$f(x)=3^x$

$g(x)=7x+6$

now, we can verify each options and check which one holds f(x)>g(x)

option-A:

we can plug x=1

$f(1)=3^1=3$

$g(1)=7\times 1+6=13$

so,

$f(1)$

so, this is FALSE

option-B:

we can plug x=2

$f(2)=3^2=9$

$g(2)=7\times 2+6=20$

so,

$f(2)$

so, this is FALSE

option-C:

we can plug x=3

$f(3)=3^3=27$

$g(3)=7\times 3+6=27$

so,

$f(3)=g(3)$

so, this is FALSE

option-D:

we can plug x=4

$f(4)=3^4=81$

$g(4)=7\times 4+6=34$

so,

$f(4)>g(4)$

so, this is TRUE

Find the slope of the line through the points (3,2) and (4,5).

igomit [66]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question we have

$m = \frac{5 - 2}{4 - 3} = \frac{3}{1} = 3 \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
