So 2.25 is 50% of the original price
let's write original price as x
50% of x = 2.25
0.5 * x = 2.25
divide both sides by 0.5
x = 4.5

The original price is 4.5

To check:
50% * (4.5) =?= 2.25
0.5 * 4.5 =?= 2.25
2.25 = 2.25

Hope this helps.

Ksju [112]

F(5)= 3.(5)+2=15+2=17

Another example: F(0)=3.(0)+2=0+2=2

You just replace the value in the two sides.

Answer:

y = 4x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

16x-4y-36 = 0

-4y = -16x+36(subtract 16x from both sides and add 36)\

y = 4x-9(divide both sides by -4)

SOLUTION: a diver jumps from a diving board that is 24 feet above the water. the height of the diver is given by h= -16(t-1.5)(t
lara [203]

Answer:

The diver will hit the water at 1.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

h= -16(t-1.5)(t+1)

Required (Missing from the question)

When will the diver hit the water?

To do this, we simply solve for t

When the diver hits the water, the height is 0 (at that point)

So, substitute 0 for h in h= -16(t-1.5)(t+1)

0= -16(t-1.5)(t+1)

Divide both sides by -16

\frac{0}{-16} =\frac{-16(t-1.5)(t+1)}{-16}

\frac{0}{-16} =(t-1.5)(t+1)

0 =(t-1.5)(t+1)

(t-1.5)(t+1)=0

Split

t - 1.5 = 0 or t + 1 = 0

Solve for t

t = 1.5 or t = -1

But time (t) can not be negative.

So:

t = 1.5

Hence, the diver will hit the water at 1.5 seconds
