Answer:

70 members in 2016

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2016

Let the number of members= x

They all paid y amount

Total fees= 42

Xy= 42...... equation 1

In 2017

Members= x+20

They paid y-0.1

Total fees = 45

(X+20)(y-0.1)= 45…equation 2

Xy -0.1x +20y -2= 45

Using values from equation 1

42-0.1(42/y) +20y -2= 45

-4.2/y+20y-5= 0

20y² -4.2 -5y = 0

100y² -25y -21= 0

Solving quadratically

Y= 0.6 or -0.35

We are dealing with price so y Is

definitely a positive number

Y= 0.6

If y= 0.6

Solving for x

Xy= 42

X= 42/0.6

X=70

There were exactly 70 members in 2016

For the function y = -2+5sin(pi/12(x-2)), what is the maximum value?
myrzilka [38]
To get the function y = <span>-2+5sin(pi/12(x-2)), the maximum value can be determined by differentiating the function and equating it to zero. The value of x will give the maximum value of the function.
dy/dx = 5 cos (pi/12 (x-2)) (pi/12)
dy/dx = 5 pi/12 cos(pi/12 (x-2))

Equate to zero</span>:
<span>5 pi/12 cos(pi/12 (x-2)) =0
pi/12 (x-2) = 3pi/2
x = 8

Substituting,
y= -2 + 5sin( pi/12 (8-2)
y = -1.86

Which of these statements best describes the relation shown in Item 1?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

It is a many-to-one relation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for relation

Required

What type of function is it?

The relation can be represented as:

\left[\begin{array}{c}x\\ \\-5\\-2\\1\\5\end{array}\right]         \left[\begin{array}{c}y\\ \\10\\11\\4\\10\end{array}\right]

Where

x = domain and y = range

Notice that the range has an occurrence of 10 (twice)

i.e.

(x_1,y_1) = (-5,10) and (x_2,y_2) = (5,10)

In function and relations, when two different values in the domain point to the same value in the range implies that, <em>the relation is many to one.</em>
