Answer:

x = 6; 6 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!!

Okay, so here is the equation needed to solve:

85.00 = 25.00 + 12.00x

Subtract 25 from both sides

85 -25 = 25 - 25 + 12x

Then, you get:

55 = 12x

Divide 55 by 12

55/12 =x

so x = 6

Hope this helps!

If you want to buy an item in a store that costs $15 and is on sale for 15% off, then how much would the item actually cost you
scoray [572]

Answer:

It would cost you $12.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Model an equation, using c as the initial cost variable and x as the final cost, and then solve for x.

x =  \frac{100 - 15}{100} c \\ x =  \frac{85}{100} (15) \\ x =  \frac{17}{20} (15) \\ x =  \frac{17}{4} (3) \\ x = \frac{51}{4}  \\ x = 12.75

the functions f and g are defined as follows f(x)=-5x+2 g(x)=3x^2-3x find f(g) and g(-2) simplify your answer as much as possibl
daser333 [38]

Answer:

f(g) = -15x^2 + 15x + 2.

g(-2) = 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(g) = -5(3x^2 - 3x) + 2

= -15x^2 + 15x + 2.

g(-2) = 3(-2)^2 - 3(-2)

= 12 + 6

= 18.
